References to "Mastered Blade" mean that the feat applies to the Mastered Blade and other weapons of identical type, unless otherwise stated. Mastered Blade: The Blademaster's primary Legendary Item is always her blade itself, often achieved through a Heartstone in the pommel or the like. When advancing her Legendary Item, she receives a 50% discount in the XP cost to advance her Mastered Blade on Blademaster levels, and her Mastered Blade's limits are calculated as her Blademaster Level + 2 or her character level, whichever is higher. If the Mastered Blade is ever destroyed, the Blademaster loses XP equal to the cost she has paid to advance it (which cancels out the 50% discount). At 5th-level and higher, if she chooses to gain an additional Legendary Item that is also a weapon of the same type, this also counts as a Mastered Blade and receives the benefits thereof. Flurry of Blades: As the Monk's Flurry of Blows, but with the Mastered Blade and other weapons of the same type Blademaster's Edge: In the hands of a Blademaster, her chosen weapon is incredibly potent. Increase its base damage dice as if the weapon was once step larger. Because the gain is far more substantial from 1d8 to 2d6 than 1d6 to 1d8, Blademasters often choose weapons that deal 1d8. Superior Critical: As Improved Critical, and it stacks with both Improved Critical and Keen. Thus, the maximum threat range possible is 9-20/x2 or 17-20/x4. No further effects may bring this any lower. Greater Flurry of Blades: As Flurry of Blades, but take a -4 penalty to gain two additional attacks. Augmented Critical: The Blademaster can perform extremely devastating blade techniques with a well-placed strike. On a Natural 20, increase the critical multiplier with the chosen weapon by 1. This ability is further enhanced by Improved and Superior Critical to apply on a Natural 18, 19, or 20, and with Keen, it applies on a 17 or higher. It cannot be enhanced further. Note that for a Keen rapier, this can lead to the rather complex result of 1-8: x1, 9-16: x2, 17-20/x3. Mercurial Barrage: Before rolling confirmation on a critical threat, the Blademaster may choose to instead make an additional attack that does not apply Strength-based or precision-based damage. Of course, this second attack may itself be a critical threat and lead to a third attack or simply a critical, as the Blademaster chooses. In general, this works best against opponents which are immune to critical hits and worst against opponents with heavy DR. A common strategy for Blademasters of weapons with high critical ranges is to activate Mercurial Barrage if they hit the range for x2 but not the range for x3. Eternal Flurry of Blades: In exchange for a -6 penalty, as part of a full attack action, the Blademaster can initiate an Eternal Flurry of Blades. She continues making iterative attacks, each with a -5 penalty for cumulative iterative attacks, until she misses her target. Failed confirmation rolls or activations of Mercurial Barrage do not count against her. Blade Apotheosis: The 20th-level Blademaster has become one with her blade to a supernatural level of perfection. With a successful Concentration check (DC 20) as a move action, she can enter a state of Blade Apotheosis. During her Blade Apotheosis, all weapon rolls with her Mastered Blade (only the Mastered Blade itself--not other weapons of the same type) are always maximum. Additionally, she gains perfect control of her movements. Rolls of 1 are not treated differently from normal rolls and will not result in critical fumbles, automatic failures, or telescoping rolls of any sort. Finally, her weapon acts as an extension of her body, fending off attacks from every direction without effort. She gains a Dodge bonus to AC equal to her Wisdom bonus as long as the weapon is in her hands. This bonus is not lost even when denied Dex bonus to AC. Additionally, as an Immediate action, she can negate a successful attack against her by a bladed weapon or negate a critical hit from any weapon (in which case it becomes a regular hit). When her Blade Apotheosis ends, she is fatigued. She cannot enter Blade Apotheosis if Fatigued or Exhausted. Otherwise, there is no limit on the number of times she can use it per day.
