| Given that maneuvers aren't nearly as powerful as spells and how few feats a character ever gets in his life, I am completely comfortable with a +4 boost to IL. You'd have to take 8 or more levels in non IL classes to get the full benefit from this feat, and that in and of itself can be a potential limiting factor when designing a sublime character. This feat gets my stamp of approval. Span is the man. |

| I do not bow at the altar of ToB. It's probably the best-balanced book WotC has put out for 3.5e, but it has its flaws -- chiefly owing to the fact that it is scarcely less hostile to multiclassing than spellcasting is. There are reasons that spell levels suck, and all of those reasons apply to maneuvers even moreso for the fact that they generally do not scale with level. The half-stacking thing doesn't fix its hostility to multiclassing. It mitigates the problem somewhat, but it provides nothing that resembles a complete fix. This patches the problem a little more. |

| Silly Ghostwheel, this is lovely. You're still need to be at least 17 HD to gain any level 9 maneuvers (and with at least 13 of those being initiator levels). Gaining level appropriate access for a feat certainly sounds right to me. Counter-favored! |

| I am strongly of the belief that this shouldn't be, since IL rises naturally with non-IL levels anyway. You can get level 9 maneuvers even with 6 non-IL levels, and this just ruins the system that ToB put in place. |
Wait a second...
Is there any significant difference between this feat and this one? --DanielDraco (talk) 18:58, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
- Practiced Initiator is twice as strong, and Havvy didn't pick a balance point? --Foxwarrior (talk) 23:08, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, completely missed the different number. --DanielDraco (talk) 03:08, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, I totally thought I'd seen this feat on the wiki before, but I searched everything I could think of and couldn't find it. Spanambula (talk) 08:30, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
