Bonus feats for Cavestalker

Unread post by Hammer_Song »

Hi all,

Wondering if anyone knows what the bonus feats for Cavestalker can be used for? The wiki says they are selected from the ranger bonus feat list, but in JEGS they seem to be limited to extra favoured enemy feats only ... Anyone know for sure what feats can be picked?

Cheers!

Those are the Ranger bonus feats... Not documented very well though. Basically CaveStalker gives you two Favored Enemies that stacks with Ranger FE's.

I also have a question about cavestalker, mainly:

Expert Spelunker
Type of Feat: Class Ability
Prerequisites: Cavestalker 5th level
Specifics: Specifics: As a cavestalker, your familiarity with the environs of the Underdark has grown to allow you to move through it easily, even in the most difficult conditions. As a result, you gain a +1 Dexterity circumstance bonus +2 Tumble and +4 Survival Ranks in natural subterranean surroundings. (The skill bonus does not count against your ability bonus limit but does not stack with other spelunking feats)
Use: Automatic

What does "circumstance" bonus mean exactly? Is it a fixed Dexterity +1 bonus, as if picking Great Dexterity, for instance?

Which apparently stacks, so with cat's grace for example.
ah, that is good new Chambo, so cavestalker can get +2 dex from ability effect +4 from cats grace to total +6 dex, +3 modifier

Small addition to this, from wiki: As a non-ranger you can pick a favored enemy or Combat Expertise / Improved Combat Expertise even on epic levels.

I can't confirm ICE yet but I was able to pick CE on my last level up - cavestalker 3-.

It also includes ICE, PA, IPA, also cleave/great cleave if I remember it right. Actually, I don't see why not leave it like that, favored enemy choice is useless for a druid cavestalker, what's even the point?

My toon should be eligible for PA and Cleave but they were not amongst the selection.
