a) Is there, anywhere, a feat that lets one "take 10" on one's attack roll when in combat?

b) Is there, anywhere, a feat that lets one "take 10" on one's saving throws?

Gods I hope not! That has got to be one of the most unbalancing ideas I have heard in quite some time. Way too often it would just mean hitting with every blow and making every save.

Hmm no but there is a class who cant break his weapon with a fumble...

The Knight by Mongoose Publishing in their Power Class series does not automatically fail when he rolls a 1 while using 'knightly weapons'. This may be what you are thinking of.

Not that I know. Taking 10/20 is for skill use only.

But I guess, if you do not fight against your loaf of bread you should be able to deal a cutting blow to it every time ;), if you are not distracted....

Kind regards

I miss my bread about 5% of the time.

Ability checks as well IIRC... 3.0 psionic Trigger Power feat with taking ten...

That's the strangest euphemism for masturbation I've ever seen.
 

Especially the part about dealing it a cutting blow...

Anyway, IMC you can fumble, but the way it works is as follows:

Roll a 1.
Roll a dex check, DC 10.
If you pass, nothing happens bar the miss. If you fail, generally you drop your guard momentarily and people threatening you get AoOs on you.

"You drop your sword, again" just leads to people taking locked gauntlets and suchlike as standard.
 

That wouldn't be a bad "special ability" for a high-level fighter (similar to the ones that rogues get). Up to X times per day, you can "Take 10" on an attack roll. Perhaps make it available at L15 or so, and don't allow the ability to be replicated in any PrC.
On saving throws, I could see "Take 10" as a valid alternate mechanism for the Luck domain granted ability.
