Chosen Foe (from Drow of the Underdark)
Since you can no longer target a single opponent with Dodge, Chosen Foe would let you do that again. It's a powerful feat that comes with huge penalties.
Leap Attack (from Complete Adventurer)
Because of how it was described, it was never clear how much bonus damage you gain from using Leap Attack (you can go read the countless thread about it, you'll see). Furthermore, it's a fun feat because it gives more utility to Jump (Acrobatics) in battle.
Shield Charge (from Complete Warrior)
You can trip with your shield. I guess that PFRPG's Shield Slam can take care of that, but at least Shield Charge don't require Two-Weapon Fighting, something I find really annoying about PFRPG's Shield Slam.
What are yours ?
Dual wand wielder: I never did get a chance to play a magic missile "gunslinger".
Some of the multi-class feats. Although the LJP "Street mage" fills my primary need, it's not PFS legal.
There are more, but two's enough for now.
Practiced spellcaster.
Right, I forgot that one. Like SlimGauge said, all the multi-class feats should be redisigned in some way.
Monkey-grip!!
Monkey-grip!!
Ducking won't help you, magic missile hits unerringly. That feat is one of the few that raises my ire.
Monkey-grip!!
Wait! What? o.O
I thought that Monkey Grip was already in PFRPG when I saw the iconic barbarian's sword. (;

They see me dual-wielding greatswords. They hatin'.
Practiced spellcaster.
If you purchase Advanced Feats The Witches Brew, they have the practiced spellcaster feat, now called Improved Caster Level or something, that adds +4 to ALL your spellcasting class, cant go over your character level of course. Id check it out. I know they arent able to be used in PFS, but 3PP have shown some amzing things the past few months and are definately worth looking at.
I'd love to see "Somatic Weaponry" given as a feat, for those classes who don't have it.
Clerics, paladin, rangers, and bards should all start with it as a bonus feat- as should any new base or prestige class that has greater than light armor and a spell progression of any kind.
As it stands now, unless i've missed something, a weapon/shield wielding cleric (or paladin.. ) can't cast spells without sheathing or dropping their weapon or shield if it has a somatic or DF component. Absolutely silly.

Jotunbrud (the character is in the high range of its size category, and considered one size larger for CMB/CMD purposes - maybe weapons too)
Karmic Strike (can use aoo against foes that hit you, but AC-4)

From the CRB : You can cast spells with somatic components with a buckler. If you have a small or heavy shield, however, you need to drop/sheat your weapon to be able to cast, just like you said.
EDIT: If you cast a spell with the hand/arm wielding a buckler, you lose your shield bonus to AC for 1 round.
Obtain Familiar (so some Sorcerers can get their familiar back without taking Arcane Bloodline)
