Special: You may take this feat multiple times. Each time it applies to a different type of shield. A fighter may take Shield Specialization as a fighter bonus feat.
Feel free to tell me if I could have worded this better!
I kind of hate how feats like this have the special about being able to take it 8 times for 8 things that you can only use 1 of at a time.
Could it be changed to
Special: You may take this feat
twice.
If you do it applies to
all type
s of shield
s. A fighter may take Shield Specialization as a fighter bonus feat.
So if you manage to take it twice then you are a shield specialist and not just into two types of shields.
Hey did we specify that fighters have full intiator level for purposes of martial study and martial stance... and should we?
I think we could apply the full initiator to most of the classes, but in limited amounts and let the Fighter picks any 1 school.
So Paladin can choose between White Raven and Devoted spirit
Barbarian between Iron Heart and Stone Dragon
Monk between Diamond Mind and Setting Sun
Ranger between Tiger Claw and ??
Rogues between Shadow Hand and ??
Maybe allow bards to pick up Setting sun if they have that energy variant, with a matching elemental shift, if not then white raven.
That gives a decent options to other classes. . For the high level ones they will be spending half of their feats and they are limited to one school, so I don't think it steps onto the toes of the adepts too much.
Should we change boomerang daze and stand still to be 10+1/2 level + Strength? Boomerang daze is far too powerful at this point with it being 10+damage dealt, and stand still might be changed so it still does damage to compensate. We want to avoid untouchable DCs right?
