[Feats] Class Feats Druid


Skills and Feats

Silver Crusade

Here's a few feats I thought of as I was playing my druid.

Improved Flight: Prerequisite - Fly (5 ranks); Benifit - your flying maneuverability increases one step (clumsy to poor, poor to average, average to good, good to perfect) granting the increase in your flying skill.

Improved Wildshape: Prerequiste - Ability to Wildshape; Benifit - You can wildshape as a move action; Normal - You can wildshape as a standard action

Quicken Wildshape: Prerequiste - Ability to Wildshape, Improved Wildshape; Benifit - You can wildshape as a free action; Normal - You can wildshape as a standard action

Now the improved flight can also work for sorcerers and wizards (or anyone who has fly skill.

Well, Improved Flight isn't needed, since it get's you effectively +4 to Fly, and Skill Focus (Fly) get's you +3 (and later +6).

However, I have no problem with Wildshape feats. What about a feat that grants an extra +2 AC in natural armor when wild shaping?

Sure, that's why I started this so I, and others, could post their druidic ideas for feats. The increased wildshape feats came to me in my last adventure as I was trying to save a commoner and then racing to the town square to meet up with the party to face the boss of the battle.

I don't have any ideas for new feats at the moment, but Natural spell needs to be fixed, In my opinion. in its current and previous states, its powerful enough that no druid in their right mind would go without it, and it seems to me that feats should be more of a choice then that.

Couple more feats, granted they are rehashes from wizards.

Spellcaster Training:Prerequisite - Spellcraft (1 rank); Benifit: Select a spellcasting class, that class has a +4 caster level. This bonus is not greater than your hit dice. This does not increase spells known or spells per day; Special - you may select this feat multiple times but each time you must select a different spellcasting class.

Practiced Spellcaster

Friend of the Animals: Prerequisite - Animal Companion; Benifit - Add 3 to you effective druid level when determining your animal companion's bonus abilities. These bonus levels do not surpass you hit dice, but if you take levels in another non companion class (example fighter) your animal companion continues to grow.

Wild shape feats sound cool but these are perhaps a little over the top... there should be some trade off, "Burn 2 wild shape uses to quicken wildshape..." or maybe just a per day limit.

That's a good idea...I think Improved is fine, but I changed quicken. It's now takes 2 daily uses and is a swift action.

Improved Wildshape: Prerequiste - Ability to Wildshape; Benefit - You can wildshape as a move action; Normal - You can wildshape as a standard action

Quicken Wildshape: Prerequiste - Ability to Wildshape, Improved Wildshape; Benefit - By burning two daily uses of wildshape you can wildshape as a swift action; Normal - You can wildshape as a standard action

Edit: although I will also correct my spelling...Benefit

Two uses for quicken might be a bit harsh given that, if I remember correctly, there is already a feat that is basically the same thing but only takes one use.

Hmm, you're right. I knew about Fast Wild Shape in Complete Divine, but I didn't know about Swift Wild Shape in Complete Champion, and here I thought I was being original...

Oh, well these are just out here for suggestion, but if noone from paizo does anything with this thread I'll allow the above feats (the splatbook ones) in my game and ask my brother to allow them in his game (that's the game in which I play the druid).


I was thinking of additional wild shape type feats for druids. Mostly be for accessing additional monster types other than listed wild shape class feats. For those character that really want to take shape shifting to it's peak.

You should have noticed already that feat's author already included very steep requirement of

"Prerequiste - Ability to Wildshape, Improved Wildshape;"

In other words, he wants to burn at least one feat to get the better version. If you feel like delaying the moment the feat is available, just add "Ability to Wildshape 3/day". That will unlock Quicken Wildshape at 11th level.
