Feats are acquired at specific levels - one at 1st, then one each at 3rd, 6th, 9th, etc. for most characters. When you reach an appropriate level, you take one feat. Certain classes grant additional feats at specific levels, as well. These feats provide various special abilities. | Feats are acquired at specific levels - one at 1st, then one each at 3rd, 6th, 9th, etc. for most characters.
