Non-spellcasting Dragon Slayers

Unread post by Sun Wukong »

The spellcasting progression does not benefit non-spellcasting Dragon slayers in any way, nor do the Spell Penetration feats. Thus if no spell-casting progression is selected - I was wondering if non-magical Dragon Slayers could acquire some other feats instead.

Why not just take Anointed Knight or Warrior of Darkness?

Why not tie in WM feats that qual the class for WM easier?

Why not turn into to dodge? It would only be good against dragons anyhow. It would work for that spellcasting progression... But Anyhow, +5 Deflection against dragons would be better than the useless spellcasting progression.

But what of those spell penetration feats? Allow the player to pick up some of the custom combat modes or moves? For example the low blow should work against dragons I think. (Bigger than player.)
