|reason=I actually rather like this feat, for a number of basic reasons. Feats are enough of a resource that the boosts to ability scores are fine, and it certainly hasn't been something that's been a must-get feat (which, we've used this in a lot of game and only a few characters have it, and even then partly because it counts as Endurance, which is great for making those prerequisites). Straightforward enough. Consider it.

This feat just seems to be like it should count as Endurance for pre-reqs. -- [[User:Eiji-kun|Eiji-kun]] ([[User talk:Eiji-kun|talk]]) 08:29, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

After a lot of consideration over a long time, I do not think that this feat is Moderate. It looks to be High, after seeing it in action quite a bit. Wondering if anyone else has anything to comment about this. The ability score boosts are certainly something that while not really game-breaking by any measure, end up stacking more, especially at mid- to higher-than-that levels where multipliers and such start coming in, bonuses to saves and hit points and damage and attack start mattering more in the form of a character build. --[[User:Ganteka Future|Ganteka Future]] ([[User talk:Ganteka Future|talk]]) 18:05, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

I actually rather like this feat, for a number of basic reasons. Feats are enough of a resource that the boosts to ability scores are fine, and it certainly hasn't been something that's been a must-get feat (which, we've used this in a lot of game and only a few characters have it, and even then partly because it counts as Endurance, which is great for making those prerequisites).

While I don't feel that ability increases should just be handed out like tic-tacs, This is a reasonable increase for the price of a feat, and makes anything with an Endurance pre-req less of a painful investment. I approve.

I disagree with Ghostwheel here, ability score buffs are fine as long as its well controlled (its a strong buff typically). There is prescidence in the vile feats which augment stats, and a few others. Moreover, the benefit is very comparable with Endurance (which is why I suggested it and good job at adding it). The benefits are more spread out, with +1 to a bunch of Str related things and maybe/maybe not +1 to a bunch of Con related thing, which is not as strong as, but more widespread, than the +4 Endurance brings to activities associated with physical activity.

And hey, short, concise, with a picture. Given its cleanliness I bump like to favor. Good job.

I just had to throw in a picture of Gilad. :3 --Luigifan18 (talk) 02:48, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Balance Range[edit]

After a lot of consideration over a long time, I do not think that this feat is Moderate. It looks to be High, after seeing it in action quite a bit. Wondering if anyone else has anything to comment about this. The ability score boosts are certainly something that while not really game-breaking by any measure, end up stacking more, especially at mid- to higher-than-that levels where multipliers and such start coming in, bonuses to saves and hit points and damage and attack start mattering more in the form of a character build. --Ganteka Future (talk) 18:05, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
