Which classes count as Fighter for Weapon Specialization?

Wondering. Which classes do count as Fighter for the purpose of taking weapon specialization?
Are there any? Or there's just Fighter?

Only fighter. Meaning you need to have the appropriate fighter level in order to be able to select the weapon specialization feat. That is F4 for Weapon Spec. and F12 for the Greater version

Only Fighter.

Of course Favoured Soul gets weapon spec at level 12, but you can't choose which (other than choosing a god, that is...)

And OOBI gets it, I think? But again, it doesn't count as Fighter.

There is the caveat of Divine Champion being able to take Epic Weapon Specialization as well but you would need the prior feats from 12 levels of Fighter.

Thank you. I thought that maybe some of the fighter PrC granted a "fighter advancement" that would let a toon be able to take the fighter feats.

That is Fighters WHOLE thing...They don't sneak, they don't cast, they don't talk. They just are REAL good with weapons and tactics, hence why they get SO damn many bonus feats.
