Subdual Feat

Does anyone know of a feat, and where I could find it, that allows your character to negate the dealing subdual damage penalty? I am looking to make a bounty-hunter rogue and would like to have this as one of her feats.

Thanks in advance,

There's "Improved Subdual" in the Kalamar Player's guide that does just that, but you have to choose a weapon with which the feat will work.

There's "Pommel strike" from Swashbuckling adventures that lets you make attacks with the pommel of your weapon. If you hit, you deal 1d4 subdual damage and is denied their DEX bonus until next round.

THere's "Subduing strike" (prereq: Dex 13+, BAB +2) from Sovereign stone campaign sourcebook that lets you make subdual attacks at -2 instead of -4 (-0 if you take the feat twice).

There's "Improved Knockout attack" from Traps & Treachery that lets you ignore the -4 penalty when you make a sneak attack (prerequisite: "Knockout attack" may use any weapon to deal subdual damage during a sneak attack).

DanMcS- Thanks, I've been meaning to pick up this book anyway.

AR- Appreciate all the sources, I will have to look at those when I get home. Any chance do you know if the pommel strike feat allows for a Sneak Attack on the next round since the victim is denied their Dex on a successful hit?

Thanks again.

Take a level of Justicar from the Complete Warrior, it's their level 1 ability. The Justicar is also a good bounty hunter prestige class (they are dedicated to hunting down and bringing back criminals).

I'll have to take a closer look at that Prestige Class, Caliban. I just purchased the CW a few days ago and haven't been able to give it a thorough reading.

Any chance you could provide me with prereq's for that PrC?
