This content is intended for the Hyrule campaign setting and the variant rules it uses. The feats on this page are intended to replace the feats available in the Player's Handbook.


A feat represents a talent or competence that gives a character extraordinary capabilities. It embodies training, experience, and abilities beyond what a class provides.

You must meet any prerequisite specified in a feat to take that feat. If you ever lose a feat's prerequisite, you can't use that feat until you regain the prerequisite. For example, a feat might require you you to have a Strength of 13 or higher. If your Strength is reduced below 13 somehow—perhaps by a withering curse—you can't benefit from that feat until your Strength is restored. You can take each feat only once, unless the feat’s description says otherwise.

There are two main ways to gain a feat, though your DM may allow additional options.

Gaining a feat at 1st level

At character creation only, you can choose to decrease four of your ability scores by 1 each to gain a feat of your choice. This sacrifice represents a deficiency in other areas of your life spent dedicated to training and experience to master the feat you choose. The scores you choose to decrease are subject to two restrictions:

  1. You must choose four different ability scores to decrease, and cannot decrease the same ability score multiple times.
  2. If you are of a race that grants a bonus of 2 or higher to an ability score, you must choose any or all ability scores that your race increases by more than 1. For example, due to his or her race, a zora has +2 Wisdom, so if using this option a zora must choose to decrease Wisdom in addition to three other ability scores.
Gaining a feat at later levels

At certain levels, your class gives you the Ability Score Improvement feature. You can forgo taking that feature to take a feat of your choice instead.

If you have the Spellcasting class feature, choose one cantrip from any of your spell lists. You may add your spellcasting ability modifier to damage rolls of that cantrip.

In addition, if you have multiclassed and/or have acquired the Spellcasting feature, you may use your spell slots for your Neophyte or Spellcasting Apprentice spell, and you may choose which ability score to add to the cantrips' and spell's attack and damage rolls. You may not add your spellcasting modifier to any spell or cantrip other than the ones gained through this feat.

  • If you use your action to throw a ball and chain a distance of 20 feet or less, you can maintain a grip on the chain. While you maintain this grip, you can use your interaction for the turn to hurl the thrown weapon back to your space. Alternatively, you can use your normal movement to move to where the weapon landed. In either case you are considered to be wielding the thrown weapon again.

Prerequisite: Proficiency with shields
Your familiarity with shields allows you to handle them with an ease others envy. You gain the following benefits:

  • You can don or doff a shield (but not a heavy shield) as if you were drawing or stowing a weapon, rather than as an action.
  • You can hold or grasp an item with an arm that's wearing a shield (but not a heavy shield). You can't make attacks using anything you're grasping with this arm.
  • When making ranged attacks using a one-handed weapon and wearing a shield (but not a heavy shield), you are considered to have a hand free for the purposes of both the Ammunition and Loading weapon properties.
  • You know just how to maneuver your shield to help you in sticky situations. Whenever you make an ability score contest to avoid being shoved or grappled, you may use your reaction to move your shield in the way, adding a +2 bonus to the check.

Dual-Wielding Ace[edit]

You have mastered the art of two-weapon fighting. You gain the following benefits while you wield a separate weapon in each hand:

  • You gain a +1 bonus to your AC.
  • You can add your ability modifier to the damage of the attack you make as a bonus action.

Iron Knuckle[edit]

Prerequisite: Proficiency with gauntlets, heavy gauntlets, clawed gloves and/or lizal gauntlet

  • While wielding a Glove or Gauntlet weapon, your damage die increases by one stage.
  • If wielding two gauntlets, you may wield these weapons even if they are not light, and you may add your ability modifier to the damage of the second attack.
  • Your AC increases by +1 for each gauntlet you wear.
  • You can wield weapons while wearing gauntlets, provided they do not possess the finesse or light properties and do not require ammunition.
  • When attacked, you may choose enter a guard stance until the end of your next turn. If a melee attack from an enemy does not exceed your AC or enemy enters your range, you may make one attack against them. If an enemy exceeds your AC, your stance ends.

Man-at-Arms[edit]

You have extensively trained with many weapons, to the point where you know how to use a weapon property it normally wouldn't have. You gain the following benefits:

  • Increase your Strength or Dexterity by 1.
  • Unless it has the ammunition or light property, any weapon you wield gains one of the following properties: Versatile (increase the weapon's damage die by one stage while two-handing, 1d4 -> 1d6 -> 1d8, etc.), finesse, dire or thrown (30/60) (You may use the returning property if the weapon is curved in any way, such as a scimitar or a battleaxe). You are the only one who gains this benefit. You cannot use the finesse or returning property on a heavy weapon. If you use the Versatile property on a Two-Handed Weapon, the damage die/dice are instead reduced.

Perfect Guard[edit]

Prerequisite: Dexterity 13 or higher; or Proficiency with shields
While you are wielding a finesse weapon, heavy weapon or a shield with which you are proficient and another creature hits you with a weapon attack, you can use your reaction to add your proficiency bonus to your AC for that attack, potentially causing it to miss you.

If you use this reaction against a ranged weapon attack and the attack misses you, you can redirect the attack back at who sent it as part of this same reaction. Make a ranged attack roll against the target, adding your Dexterity bonus but not your proficiency modifier. On a hit, damage for the attack is rolled as normal, using the original attacker's ability modifiers and features.

Weapon Specialist[edit]

Prerequisite: Proficiency with simple and martial melee weapons
You are at your best when you know your weapon. Choose one of the following set of benefits based on your chosen weapon:

One Handed:

  • All One-Handed weapons you wield have their damage dice split into two smaller dice. For example, if you are wielding a weapon that deals 1d8 damage, it becomes 2d4 damage instead. Weapons with the versatile property gain this benefit as well. You do not gain this benefit if a One-Handed weapon deals 1d4 damage.
  • You can utilize the versatile properties of a weapon even if you are wielding a shield.
  • You may use your action to use your attack action to make 2 attacks using one attack action. You must finish a long rest before using this feature again.

Two-Handed:

  • All Two-Handed weapons you wield have their damage dice split in half. For example, if wielding a weapon that deals 2d6 damage, it deals 3d4 damage instead.
  • When you make an attack roll with a Two-Handed weapon, you may choose to put all of your weight into your attack. In exchange for taking disadvantage on the attack roll, you may choose to deal an extra 1d4 damage. You cannot use this feature more than once in one turn.
  • You may swing a Two-Handed weapon one handed an amount of times equal to your Constitution modifier. Once you have used this feature up, you must finish a long rest before you can do it again. If your Strength is 20 or higher, you may do this an unlimited number of times.

You may take this feat twice, though not the same weapon path.
