[Arcane Combat] Feat Type

Arcane Combat feats grant magical abilities through various combat styles and techniques. The classes which get them usually have no spellcasting ability of their own. All arcane combat feats are also fighter bonus feats, and many require fighter levels.

For the purposes of "caster level" for various supernatural and spell-like abilities gained by these feats, the caster level is equal to the creature's base attack bonus. Normal caster level boosting items and abilities function on the arcane combat caster level.
