# Dummy Feat Mod for Baldur’s Gate 3

This mods adds a Feat that … well, doesn’t do anything.

## WHY⁈

I was looking for a way to implement the common house rule of a free feat for 
each character at level 1.

_Technically_ you can do that _very easily_ in Baldur’s Gate 3. Unfortunately 
adding Feats to race progression flat out does not work.

What you _can_ do is add extra Feats to the class progression, but not at level 
1\. You also cannot specify that you should get a Feat only when the current 
class is _not_ multiclassed.

So, you can give every class a free Feat at level 2. But then you get more Feats 
than intended; this is where this mod comes in. Pick a Feat at level 2 in your 
first/main class, then pick the Dummy Feat for all additional classes.

## How Do I Get Feats at Level 2?

There are several mods for that. Personally I use 
[Feats Every X Levels - Compat Framework 
Based](https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/3938) in the “Feat at Level 
2” variety.

## It Doesn’t Work!

Well, you probably messed something up then. This is as simple as it gets. 
I could cobble the thing together in about an hour from “I have no idea how this 
works” to working mod.

You can still [open an issue](https://git.alternerd.tv/bg3-dummy-feat/issues) if 
you want. Include as much info as possible and I will take a look.
