Feats are features that grant a character unique improvements. All classes select one feat at class levels 4, 8, and 12. Fighters select an additional feat at level 6; Rogues select an additional feat at level 10.

See D&D 5e feat changes for an overview of difference between feats in 5e D&D and Baldur's Gate 3.
