[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 7189512, member: 15700"] You seem to be confusing "Feats are designed to have at least one feature that can be used in general" with "If you design a feat in the way it's supposed to, you [i]must[/i] choose a weapon outside of that feat's specialty." I.e., just because crossbow feat has a feature that applies to all ranged weapons, in no way means you're forced to use a weapon other than a crossbow. By eliminating that design standard for feats, you're limiting choices and scenarios where that feat could be useful, making them hyper-specialized. Not to mention how it's not the best design to focus only on the char op crowd, since they are the minority of all game players anyway, so you're limiting your target audience as well. You're also completely forgetting that the PC won't always have their weapon of choice handy, and having that feat would also grant a benefit when you find yourself in a situation where the only weapon available to you is a longsword, or long bow, or dagger, etc. [/QUOTE]
