Self-Concealment and Epic Fighter Bonus feats. Can a Fighter take Self-Concealment feats with Fighter levels 22, 24, 26, 28, and 30?

Today, Self-Concealment should only require Dexterity of 25, Hide 30, Move Silently 30, and Tumble 30.

I just do not have a level 30 character to test it out myself.

Edit, Answered elsewhere:

It doesnt require move silently. Only hide and tumble 30

Oh, you are right. Well, usually only a stealth build would go for it, so... That is where my mix up arises. Hmn... It does open up things for great consideration. :lol:

Does Ranger's Two-Weapon Fighting line of feats count for achieving feat prerequsite for Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting?

Yes, a Ranger 11/Something Else 19 with 25 Dexterity can take the Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting Feat in default NWN2. Just as a ranger with Archery Combat Style could take the One Shot feat, and even when he already has it from his Ranger level progression.

How exactly does favored power attack feat work? It doesn't seem to actually multiply your power attack damage.

For example, I ran test on a ranger who has 10-15 damage with a 2-handed weapon (club) and 22-27 with Improved power attack accordingly. You'd think you should logically receive +24 damage bonus (12x3), or at least +12 (6x3, disregarding 2-handed holding). But my most frequent damage roll became 31, meaning I basically received less than 10 to damage bonus, which doesn't make sense. How exactly this feat works? Does it synergize with berserker's enhanced power attacks? Etc.

Scroll down to the bottom to see the table and the discussion: https://nwn2.fandom.com/wiki/Talk:Favored_Power_Attack

If you dare not click the link:
" The feats do work together. However not in the fashion described above. Enhanced power attack is a static +2 power attack damage modifier (+4 improved power attack modifier) that gets added to the power attack damage before all the doubling and tripling gets applied. "

No Enchantments:
PA 3 (OH) 6 (TH)
IPA 6 (OH) 12 (TH)

Enchanced Power Attack:
PA 5 (OH) 10 (TH)
IPA 10 (OH) 20 (TH)

Favored Power Attack:
PA 6 (OH) 12 (TH)
IPA 9 (OH) 18 (TH)

Both:
PA 10 (OH) 20 (TH)
IPA 15 (OH) 30 (TH)


#EDIT:
If it is not clear...

When the game considers multiplication, what it actually multiplies is the base damage of the regular Power Attack. Thus Improved Power Attack is just "Power Attack * 2" and with the Favored Power Attack feat it becomes "Power Attack * 3".

This is actually accurate to my testing i did just now.

If you wield two hander, the formula is not 6 (IPA) * 2(two-hander) * 3(FPA), it's 6 * (2 (two-hander) + 1 (FPA)), thus 6 * 3.
It works exactly this way in game.
