Message: <blockquote data-quote="airwalkrr" data-source="post: 2797220" data-attributes="member: 12460">I've read all the comments so far. Thanks a lot for the help everyone. However there is one suggestion that really sticks out for me. It is Geron Raveneye's.Now I would like to adapt this idea just a tad. I would say the fighter gets Leadership at 5th level (5th seems to be a level where a lot of characters stop leveling in fighter since it only gives BAB, hit dice, and skill points). I am fond of this idea for a couple of reasons. First of all, it takes the fighter class back to its OD&D roots where fighters got followers. That was always cool. Second of all, it gives the Fighter something before any other character class can possibly get it. However, I will tweak this idea just a little bit and say that this bonus Leadership feat the fighter gets only counts his levels in fighter towards his Leadership score. Quite frankly, I think this will solve all the fighter's problems. Not only does he get to level up, but so does his cohort which is a whole handful of bonus abilities in itself.On top of that, at 11th level, I'm going to also give him the Landlord feat from the Stronghold Builder's Guide. His followers decide to put down and build him a stronghold and his influence is such that he derives a small plot of land from a noble or king in his homeland or nearby his current residence. Much like his bonus Leadership feat, this feat only benefits from his levels in fighter. This should provide numerous role-playing opportunities and it doesn't mess with the core abilities of the class much at all.And just to throw him a bone, I will also create an extra two fighter feats available at 16th and 20th level that are a bit more moderate in power and easy to adjudicate, yet still very nifty. Let me know what you think.Superior Weapon FocusYou are especially good at using many weapons.Prerequisite: Greater Weapon Focus with at least one weapon, fighter level 16th.Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus on all attack rolls you make using any weapon you are proficient with. This bonus stacks with other bonuses on attack rolls, including the one from Weapon Focus and Greater Weapon Focus (see below).Special: A fighter must have Superior Weapon Focus to gain the Superior Weapon Specialization feat.A fighter may select Superior Weapon Focus as one of his fighter bonus feats (see page 38).Greater Weapon SpecializationYou deal extra damage when using many weapons.Prerequisite: Greater Weapon Specialization with at least one weapon, fighter level 20th.Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus on all damage rolls you make using any weapon you are proficient with. This bonus stacks with other bonuses on damage rolls, including the one from Weapon Specialization and Greater Weapon Specialization (see below).Special: A fighter may select Superior Weapon Specialization as one of his fighter bonus feats (see page 38).</blockquote>
