Feat Pre-req question


Rules Questions


can you qualify for a feat if another ability grants something that's basically the same as the pre-req feat for instance could I take "Mythic Crafter" be taken if you have the Mythic Crafter path ability which allows you to craft items as if you had the feat? clarification and a referance would be helpful


The short answer: Ask your GM.

The long answer: No, but yes. For a great many effects it would be reasonable to apply the nigh-identical prerequisite. However, I could very easily see drawing the line at the Mythic feats. The crafting feats in particular offer some pretty incredible versatility-- Mythic Craft Wondrous Item is particularly awesome, and amusingly so is Mythic Craft Staff. Mythic Crafter, the feat, is also rather incredible for opening up a whole new world of items that-- especially if your GM lets you create custom magic items-- blow the regular ones out of the water in power.

Thus this is something to ask your GM about. They might let you, or they might not.


ok thanks I could have sworn reading somewhere that it worked like this but I couldn't for the life of me recall

Mythic Craft (Ex): When you use the Craft skill to create an item, you double the progress each check provides. In addition, you can make an item masterwork simply by paying for the cost, and don't need to increase the time to create the item or attempt additional checks. Add your tier to any skill checks associated with making magic items.

This path ability enhances skill bonus and increases your crafting progress for mundane items. When you create magic items it only increases your skill bonus. You still need feats like 'Craft Woundrous Item', 'Craft Wands' , ...

Mythic Feats: Mythic Crafter wrote:

You can craft mythic magic items.

Prerequisite: Any item creation feat.
Benefit: You can create any mythic magic item for which you have the appropriate item creation feat. In addition, you gain a +5 bonus on skill checks when creating non-mythic magic items.

Item creation feats are listed in the CRB and are Brew Potion, Craft Wand, Craft scrolls ,..

Mythic Craft isnt a replacement for crafting feats. Besides a small bonus to skill checks it has nothing to do with Magic Item Creation. Mythic Crafter let you create better Magic Items and enhances your Item Creation Feats.

The Path Ability and the Feat are to different things and they enhance to different abilities.


sorry I mixed up the ability name I ment:

Crafting Mastery: You can craft any magic item as if you had the necessary item creation feats. If you actually have the item creation feat needed for a magic item you're crafting, whenever you attempt a skill check to create that item, roll twice and use the higher result, and you make twice as much progress on the item for any time spent. This ability does not reduce the item's cost or any other requirements.

not Mythic Craft
