Bonus feat question.


Rules Questions


If I have a feat that, and later get it as a bonus feat, what do I do? Do I lose the bonus feat or can I pick a diferent feat?


usually you just lose it. a nice gm will usually let you pick a replacement.


Thank you


With the rules only Fighters can swap bonous feats every four levels, but other than that no. I think it's a common for DMs to allow some retraining but it would be a houserule.


Exactly. By the book, you're just out of luck. There are very few GMs that would deny you a new feat, though, and most bonus feats actually tell you what happens if you take it early


I think I am out of luck. I am looking at the Lore Warden fighter Archthype for my PFS character. I needed combat expertize at first lvl. But you get it free at second.


Only a jerk DM would seriously make you waste a feat slot just because of a bonus feat.

Then again, there are many stupid and incompetent DMs around, which makes me both angry and sad.


Why did you need Combat Reflexes at level 1?


Improved trip. I have a bard going for whip master. Taking a dip in to Lore Warden(fighter).


Are you going 4 levels into Lore Warden? By RAW you can switch feats then.
