Does Precise (Arrowsong) Minstrel require PBS?


Rules Questions


For reference:

Precise Minstrel:
Precise Minstrel (Ex): At 2nd level, an Arrowsong minstrel gains Precise Shot as a bonus feat. In addition, any creature that is affected by any of the Arrowsong minstrel’s bardic performance does not provide soft cover to enemies against her ranged attacks with a bow. This ability replaces the versatile performance gained at 2nd level and well-versed.

Since the ability lacks any wording about not requiring prerequisites for Precise Shot, would a character without Point-Blank Shot (the prerequisite) not be able to benefit from the bonus feat?

I understand they would still benefit from the rest of the ability vis-a-vis soft cover.


Yes. Bonus feats that require you to meet prereqs generally say so.


It gives you the feat for free, so you'd be fine.

avr's answer is confusing I don't know what he means by yes.

The class gives you the feat, so you should be able to use it as a class ability.

Not that you shouldn't pick PBS anyways, as it's a prereq for a lot of stuff.
