[QUOTE="Hawken, post: 4604877, member: 23619"] The Poor Save value at level 5 is still +1, so from levels 1-5, you would be looking at a +1 bonus. If you took it at level 10 (who gets a feat at level 10?), the Poor Save value is +3, so you would get a +3 Dodge bonus. Yes, the bonus increases, not with each level, as you seem to imply, but at the rate of a Poor Saving throw (+1 through 5th, +2 at 6th, +3 at 9th, etc.). If that is too high, then how about +2 bonus. At 12th, it increases to +3 and at 18th it increases to +4. That would effectively put a Poor Save halfway between Poor and Good as far as the numbers go and applying it to a Good save would provide a scalable bonus that isn't (to me) overpowered. True, but they should scale. Saving throw bonuses still continue to increase every 2 or 3 levels, so its not unreasonable for a select group of save DCs to increase with a feat and then every 5 levels or so. [/QUOTE]
