Barbarian Dedication


Rules Discussion


Just wondering what all I would get with this if I chose Fury as the instinct.


Not much more or less than with the other instincts.
Technically when you take the Instinct Ability feat you could probably choose an extra level 1 barbarian feat... but you could also get that by just taking a barbarian feat feat.

You are stuck with the +2 to damage.


I think I may have miss worded the question I was trying to ask. If I took Barbarian Dedication and choose Fury as the instinct, would I get the one feat plus extra feat that normally comes with that instinct?


No. You don't gain any benefit from the Instinct you select with the Dedication Feat.


"Choose an instinct as you would if you were a barbarian. You have that instinct for all purposes and become bound by its anathema, but you don’t gain any of the other abilities it grants."

Just to point out that the Fury Instinct is different that the other Instincts. The other replies here are correct. But the thing to consider is the anathema for Fury reads:

You don’t have an anathema or an instinct ability. Instead, you gain an additional 1st-level barbarian feat

So with the Dedication feat for a Barbarian in the Fury Instinct binds you to a non existent Anathema. No problem.

The Instinct Ability feat technically gives you nothing at all here, or is not a legitimate feat to take. Without your GM reinterpreting this there is no way to get the bonus Barbarian feat from Fury Instinct, but you can of course get a feat via the normal Basic Fury feat. A minor point.
