[QUOTE="Doc Eldritch, post: 5059838, member: 68817"] Remathilis has an excellent list there, even if personally I don't have too much of an issue with the Melee/Ranged Weapon Mastery ones. The problem with the feats (and prestige classes) was that 3.5 suffered from a LOT of bloat. There were just tons and tons of them, and many were...unbalanced, to be nice. Pathfinder seems to have reigned that in quite a bit, and I am loathe to unbalance it more. That said, in writing up my game stuff, I went through all the Complete books, the PHB2, and a few other books, and compiled a list of something like 75 feats I plan to allow, once I have gone through and "Pathfinder-ized" them. Oddly, many of the feats I snagged from Complete Fighter and PHB2 were the least "offensive" in terms of being unbalanced and what might need changing. Some I could put in as is, and probably never notice a thing. Same with prestige classes, though that was a MUCH smaller list (something like 16 PrCs), and aimed mainly at filling in some "holes" in the base PrC list and some flavor things. I'll probably add more homebrew ones, that fit a specific campaign world (like Knightly orders, unusual mages, that kinda thing). I also tend to be a fan of the 5 level prestige class, as opposed to the 10 level ones. Something that adds a bit of zing to a class, but is not a new focus. [/QUOTE]
