At class levels 4, 8, and 12, players can choose to take a feat instead of increasing their Ability Scores. Feats are character features that grant unique abilities or bonuses which improve a character's abilities in specified areas.

Fighter Fighters and Rogue Rogues also gain access to bonus feats, with the fighter gaining a bonus feat at level 6 and the rogue at level 10.

Bugs

  • As of Hotfix 6, the bonus Strength modifier damage from throws with Tavern Brawler seems to be directly applied to objects, bypassing any Toughness condition they may have. Thus, even if a character cannot deal enough normal damage in a single attack, they can still slowly but surely chip down the health of any locked door or chest by repeatedly throwing an item.

Trivia

  • Some feats were changed from their D&D 5e counterparts. For a detailed comparison see D&D 5e Feat Changes.
