I need help on the obvious and can't find the answer. For feats that state a requirement like with a specific fighter lvl ex: Greater Weapon Focus: 8th level fighter, Penetrating strike: 12th level fighter, etc... Can only an 8th, 12th level fighter select GWF, Penetrating Strike? It just doesn't feel right so I'm sure this has been discussed but I've tried searching for it in the messageboards and feel like I'm missing the obvious here.
My gut is telling me that the fighter level requirment just means that is the lvl required for a fighter to take it as a bonus feat. Can someone help out the slow guy?
If you want to make them available for everyone else, start thinking of how are you goign to boost your fighter to keep it special.
Great Thanks everyone! I was thrown off by the preq of BAB +1 for GWF and thought I just had to be missing something because it seems the BAB req would be +8; I'm in agreement with the way PF handled fighters because I never played them due to 'lagging behind'.
lol; I wish I would have posted 2 hours ago instead of searching and searching to no avail
I have a similat issue with this feats.
Some of them are fine to restrict them to fighter (Weapon spec, GWF etc. all the "weapon" feats), but mainly the Disruptive and Spellbreaker feats would be nice for every melee, especially if he's focus around "Witch-Huntig" :)
Those feats are fighter class features that got lost on the way and somehow wound up in the Feats section.
If they had moved those "Feats" to the fighter class description and said "Instead of taking a feat (fighter bonus feat or not), a fighter can get one of these abilities, mind the prerequisites" all would be well.

And the fighter would love to get to stuff like pinpoint targeting a couple of levels early, or uncanny dodge, or evasion - especially if he's a great archer, or a swashbuckling type.
But class-based systems don't quite allow that kind of freedom.
The eldritch knight PrC is the only other class in PRPG core that allows taking fighter feats. So the occasional paladin / sorcerer / EK, can take some fighter feats pretty late in his / her career.

You mean except for multi-classing, right? I mean, you know that, you don't need me telling you that.
A milticlass fighter is still a fighter. A paladin can get it by way of the EK without ever taking a level of fighter.
The Disruptive and Spellbreaker are the only feats that I think are terrible to be fighter only. they aren't that good anyway... but still, they don't look Fighter only.

Don't barbarians have access to these same feats through rage powers?
