[QUOTE="jasin, post: 3438488, member: 7531"] This is why I would call this "adding insult to injury": not because it makes the warblade shockingly powerful, but because it seems a perfect way to cause resentment and perceptions of overpoweredness even if none exists. As a warblade, there's enough interesting feats to take before I'll look to simple, always-on bonuses, so weapon aptitude doesn't really excite me. As a fighter, I have enough feats to take interesting ones [i]and[/i] Specialization &c., so weapon aptitude would excite me, but I don't get it. I'd take away weapon aptitude from the warblade and give it to the fighter. The warblade isn't really any weaker (there are other feats at least as good as +2 to damage), but the fighter is a bit more versatile, and his signature ability, questionable though it is, gets a little boost. Now just make 6th, 12th and 18th level feats "wildcard feats", like the man-at-arms from Iron Heroes has... but now that's "fixing the fighter" and not "what's wrong with the warblade". [/QUOTE]
