Sorcerer Bloodline Feats with impossible prereqs


Rules Questions


I helped a friend make a Sorcerer character with the Imperious Bloodline. We're lvl 5 for now, so far so good, but I was taking a look at the Bloodline Feats and at least one of them (Heroic Defiance) requires as base Fort Save that is not reachable for a pure sorcerer.

From the CRB:

At 7th level, and every six levels thereafter, a sorcerer receives one bonus feat, chosen from a list specific to each bloodline. The sorcerer must meet the prerequisites for these bonus feats.

From the APG - Heroic Defiance:

Prerequisites: Diehard, Endurance, base Fortitude save +8.

Sorcerer Base Fortitude maxes out at +6, so what's a sorcerer to to? Is there any errata on it or something???

The Exchange

No errata. You would have to multiclass to take the feat.

A sorcerer only gets a total of three bloodline feats and, like most bloodlines, imperious has 8 feats to pick from. So while it’s annoying it’s not like a pure sorcerer is going to end up with no legal feat choices.


I mean, it's sorta in the name for an "Impossible Bloodline".

Ah, gotcha. That's frustrating but pretty much what I thought. Thanks for the quick answer!
