The Forester class (and 15 related feats)

[Crothian]

How about a tree of Ambush feats? Or climbing and fighting feats? A feat tree that leads to being able to improve training and have animals learn more and better tricks? Feat tree of water combat?

Thoose are a few suggestons to feat trees. I'm sure others will also have ideas for you.

Crothian, Did you have anything specific in mind when you suggested types of feat trees that might be developed? I'm open to ideas. The only thing I'd be opposed to on principle would be abilities that copy the signature abilities of the standard classes, like a rogue's Sneak Attack or the ranger's Favored Enemy. I would prefer that anything approximating or reproducing those abilities as feats be taken as regular rather than forester bonus feats. So I wouldn't include them on that list, but on the other hand, I'd certainly allow them to all characters, were they well-balanced.

I was just throwing out ideas basically. I wan't trying to step on the other classes toes.

For tha Ambush you could give bonuse to hide in a wildnerss setting while not moving. Then grant another feat that gives this bonus to others with you. THis would help give you a surprise round. You have Alertness and the other one which would help with detecting ambushes.

Climbing: Give good bonus to climg, you can increase climbing speed, allow them to fight while climbing without any penalty.

Swim: Same as climb except applies in water.

Training animals: This could be done with basic bonuses to Animal Hamdling, and also by allow an extra few tricks to be taught to a specific animal.
