I love to speculate on others' motives, but tend to avoid assuming I know what they were. It could just have been someone wanting to extend the paragon feats and forgetting (or purposefully omitting) the type. It could have been a crappy math fix. It could have been something slated for PHB 1 but cut in favor of more "fun" options.It's too large for a general rule. It could be fine (or even needed) for some characters.I'm saying it depends on the house rule. These feats aren't enough, because if you're already getting hit on a two or better the difference is minor. Even if the feats do work, and fix the problem perfectlym they apply a surcharge to every epic character. That's a bad thing (as I think most here have agreed).I don't like the AV items with constant defense buffs. They're often unnecessary at the level they're given, not flavorful enough to make them fun, smack too much of the 3.x bonus items that everyone had to have, and violate a promise made by WotC.</blockquote>
