Tactical Feats

[roguerouge]

Why aren't they all useable as Fighter bonus feats? Or has there been an errata that I've missed?

Which ones aren't? I was under the impression that they all were.

 

[Maleketh]

Well, mage-based tactical feats aren't fighter bonus feats. That makes sense to me.

 

[roguerouge]

Elusive Target is one, along with the Monk one in CW, at least.

Elusive Target is one, along with the Monk one in CW, at least.

So why should those be fighter bonus feats?

Just because a feat is "tactical" doesn't mean it is fighter-based.

The monk one is ,well monk-based and not fighter based.

Races of destiny likewise has 2 tactical feats that are not fighter bonus feats (and also don't seem fighter-like, more rogue-ish)

Complete mage also has a few tactical feats that are, well mage oriented and not fighter-type.

Races of Eberron also has some tactical feats that are soulknife based (as well as racial).

Just because a feat has a "tactical" use doesn't mean that is should be a fighter-based (and thus fighter bonus) feat.

 

[roguerouge]

I guess I was annoyed because most of the tactical feats are and Elusive Target, the one I care about, isn't a fighter feat, despite not having the monk flavor of the non-fighter feats. It has such burdensome prereqs too: Dodge, Mobility, and Combat Expertise.

Well, Dodge can be gotten with other, more useful feats like Desert Wind Dodge or Expeditious Dodge, both counting as Dodge for meeting requirements. Mobility is a +1 market price modifer enhancement for light armors in MIC. And Combat Expertise is only painful for the int requirement. It's well worth a feat slot, the question is if it's worth dropping a 13 in int.
