Full disclosure: I'm starting this thread because I have a character that will be put in a tough situation with the upcoming STWF and mod 6.
STWF has a BaB requirement of 15. Since my ranger has one level of rogue, I won't be able to take this feat with mod 6 unless I take a level of fighter at level 16.
...yet we found out from a recent dev post that rangers will likely end up getting this feat for free. So if I do take a level of fighter, doing so will have been pointless come mod 7.
I suggest we move the "rangers get it for free" part up to mod 6. It can't be that hard to implement.
If not, this just goes into the "we should have full respec capabilities" bin. This is yet another example of how the game changes and leaves little to no recourse for characters designed in prior systems. On the flip side, at least I know about it ahead of time for once![]()
