Is there a legal feat out there that allows one to apply their dex bonus to their weapon damage instead of using strength to enhance their damage?

Hawkeye

Yes there is, but not all weapons. I think a rapier is the biggest one.

Combat finesse (???)

 

[Hawkeye]

That would be Weapon Finesse and it only applies to the attack roll. I have that already. I am looking for a damage boosting feat.

Weapon finesse is the feat you are reaching for EXCEPT this only allows you use your DEX bonus on your attack rolls. I don't know of any feat that allows you to add your DEX bonus to damage rolls. I am by no means the final word however.

Check the Arms and Equipment Guide for the Fierce property.

I have a vague memory of a specific magic weapon (rapier? shortsword?) in either A&EG or Savage Species, but I could be misremembering.

I'm not looking for a weapon for an ability. I am looking for a feat, so I can use my dex bonus instead of strength bonus to add to my damage for unarmed combat. Hmmm maybe wisodm instead like Zen Arcehry is for wisdom instead of dex. Some sort of instinctive strike or something to that affect.

You probably are best off redoing your stats so that Str and Dex switch priorities. Thsose extra points of AC, esp when your AC is still quite a bit lower than the fighters so that andything that tends to miss you will get chewed up by them anyway, arent worth what str gives you. Its good for attack, damage, and opposed rolls. Rememer, if you are a grappler, you dont need AC so much. Also it frees up the feat you spent on WFinesse.

I'll consider it.

Was there anything of interest to be found on the fiendpires we killed in the sewers?

Nope. Pretty much just rags.
