The break DC remains the same. Using Shattering Strike is a full-round action that incurs attacks of opportunity. The character can't use Shattering Strike to escape bonds (unless he or she is so bound as to allow the character to make an unarmed strike against his or her bindings).

Improved Skirmish

Skirmish +4d6/+4 AC.

Sneak Attack of Opportunity

Sneak attack +8d6, opportunist class feature.

Any attack of opportunity the character makes is considered a sneak attack.

Improved Sneak Attack

Sneak attack +8d6.

Add +1d6 to the character's sneak attack damage.

Spectral Strike

Wis 19, ability to turn or rebuke undead.

The character's attacks deal damage normally against incorporeal creatures.

Improved Spell Capacity

Ability to cast spells of the normal maximum spell level in at least one spellcasting class.

When the character selects this feat, he or she gains one spell slot per day of any level up to one level higher than the highest-level spell the character can already cast in a particular class. The character must still have the requisite ability score (10 + spell level) in order to cast any spell stored in this slot. If the character has a high enough ability modifier to gain one or more bonus spells for this spell level, he or she also gains the bonus spells for this spell level. The character must use the spell slot as a member of the class in which he or she can already cast spells of the normal maximum spell level.

Spell Slots Above 9th Level

The Improved Spell Capacity feat allows characters to gain spell slots above 9th level (which can be used to hold lower-level spells or spells whose level has been increased beyond 9th by the use of metamagic feats). A character with a very high score in the ability associated with his or her spellcasting (Intelligence for wizards; Wisdom for clerics, druids, paladins, and rangers; or Charisma for bards and sorcerers) may receive bonus spells of those levels, as shown on Table: Expanded Ability Modifiers and Bonus Spells, but only if they already have at least one spell slot of that level (such as from the Improved Spell Capacity feat). A character without any spell slots of a level can't receive any bonus spells of that level, even if the appropriate ability score is high enough to award them. Even though the table only includes ability scores up to 61 and spell slots up to 25th level, the progression continues infinitely in both directions. For ability scores beyond 61, or for spell slots above 25th level, expand the table to follow the same patterns as shown. Table: Expanded Ability Modifiers and Bonus Spells

Spell Knowledge

Ability to cast spells of the maximum normal spell level of an arcane spellcasting class.

The character learns two new arcane spells of any level up to the maximum level he or she can cast. This feat does not grant any additional spell slots.

Spell Opportunity

Combat Casting, Combat Reflexes, Quicken Spell, Spellcraft 25 ranks.

Whenever the character is allowed an attack of opportunity, he or she may cast (and attack with) a touch spell as the character's attack of opportunity. This incurs attacks of opportunity just as if the character had cast the spell normally.

Improved Spell Resistance

Must have spell resistance from a feat, class feature, or other permanent effect.

The character's spell resistance increases by +2.

Spell Stowaway

Spellcraft 24 ranks, caster level 12th.

Choose a spell-like ability the character knows, or a spell the character cam cast. The character is attuned to the magic he or she chooses. If another spellcaster within 300 feet of the character uses this magic, the character also immediately gains the magic's effect as if it had been used on the character by the same caster. The character must have direct line of effect to the spellcaster in order to gain the benefit of the attuned magic (though the character does not have to know the spellcaster is present, and he or she can be flat-footed). The magic's duration, effect, and other specifics are determined by its original caster's level.

Spellcasting Harrier

Combat Reflexes.

Any spellcaster the character threatens in melee provokes an attack of opportunity if he or she tries to cast defensively. The character gets a +4 bonus on this attack roll.

Spontaneous Domain Access

Wis 25, Spellcraft 30 ranks, ability to cast 9th-level divine spells.

Select a domain the character has access to. The character may spontaneously convert any prepared cleric spell (except a domain spell) into a domain spell of the same level in the selected domain, just as a cleric channels energy to convert spells into cure spells.

Spontaneous Spell

Spellcraft 25 ranks, ability to cast the maximum normal spell level of at least one spell-casting class.

Select a spell the character can cast. The character may spontaneously convert any prepared spell of the selected spell's level into the selected spell, just as a cleric channels energy to convert spells into cure spells.

Storm of Throws

Dex 23, Point Blank Shot, Quick Draw, Rapid Shot.

As a full-round action, the character may throw a light weapon at his or her full base attack bonus at each opponent within 30 feet. All light weapons thrown need not be the same type.

Improved Stunning Fist

Dex 19, Wis 19, Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist.

Add +2 to the DC of the character's stunning attack.

Improved Sudden Strike

Sudden strike +8d6.

Superior Initiative

Improved Initiative.

The character gets a +8 bonus on initiative checks. This bonus overlaps (does not stack with) the bonus from Improved Initiative.

Swarm of Arrows

Dex 23, Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, Weapon Focus (type of bow used).

As a full-round action, the character may fire an arrow at his or her full base attack bonus at each opponent within 30 feet.

Tenacious Magic

Spellcraft 15 ranks.

Choose one spell the character knows or spell-like ability the character possesses. Whenever the chosen form of magic would otherwise end due to a dispel effect, the magic is instead only suppressed for 1d4 rounds. The magic still ends when its duration expires, but the suppressed rounds do not count against its duration. The character can dismiss his or her own spell or spell-like ability (if dismissible) or dispel his or her own tenacious magic normally.

Terrifying Rage

Intimidate 25 ranks, rage 5/day

While you are raging, any enemy that views you must make a Will save opposed by your Intimidate check of become panicked (if it have HD less than your character level) or shaken (if it has HD equal to or up to twice your character level) for 4d6 rounds. An enemy with Hit Dice greater than twice your character level is not affected by this feat.

Thundering Rage

Str 25, rage 5/day.

Any weapon the character wields while in a rage is treated as a thundering weapon. The DC of the Fortitude save to resist deafness is equal to 10 + 1/2 the character's level. This ability does not stack with similar abilities.

Trap Sense

Search 25 ranks, Spot 25 ranks, trapfinding class ability.

If the character passes within 5 feet of a trap, he or she is entitled to a Search check to notice it as if the character was actively looking for it.

Two-Weapon Rend

Dex 15, base attack bonus +9, Improved Two-Weapon Fighting, Two-Weapon Fighting.

If the character hits an opponent with a weapon in each hand in the same round, he or she may automatically rend the opponent. This deals additional damage equal to the base damage of the smaller weapon plus 1 1/2 times the character's Strength modifier. Base weapon damage includes an enhancement bonus on damage, if any. The character can only rend once per round, regardless of how many successful attacks he or she makes.

Uncanny Accuracy

Dex 21, base attack bonus +11, Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, Improved Precise Shot, Spot 20 ranks.

The character's ranged attacks ignore the miss chance granted to targets by total concealment. The character must aim his or her attacks at the correct square to gain advantage of this feat.

Unholy Strike

Smite good class feature, any evil alignment.

Any weapon the character wields is treated as an unholy weapon (it is evil-aligned and deals an extra 2d6 points of damage against creatures of good alignment). This ability doesn't stack with similar abilities. If the weapon already has an alignment, this feat has no effect on the weapon.

Vorpal Strike

Str 25, Wis 25, Improved Critical (unarmed strike), Improved Unarmed Strike, Keen Strike, Stunning Fist, ki strike (adamantine).

The character's unarmed strike is considered to be a slashing vorpal weapon. (At the character's option, any unarmed strike can do bludgeoning damage instead, but it loses the vorpal quality.) This ability doesn't stack with similar abilities

Improved Whirlwind Attack

Int 13, Dex 23, Combat Expertise, Dodge, Mobility, Spring Attack, Whirlwind Attack.

As a standard action, the character can make one melee attack for every five points of his or her base attack bonus (including epic attack bonus, round fractions down). The character cannot attack any one opponent more than once as part of this action. These attacks (as well as all other attacks made until the start of the character's next turn) suffer a -4 penalty. When using the Improved Whirlwind feat, the character also forfeits any bonus or extra attacks granted by other spells or abilities (such as Cleave or the haste spell). Since these attacks are made as part of a standard action the character can't make a 5-foot step between any two of the attacks.

Widen Aura of Courage

Cha 25, aura of courage class ability.

The character's aura of courage extends to all allies within 100 feet of the character.

Widen Aura of Despair

Cha 25, aura of despair class ability.

The character's aura of despair extends to all allies within 100 feet of the character.
