Beastmaster

Another animal joins you in your travels. It is a young animal companion that has the minion trait. See Beastmaster Animal Companions (in Beastmaster Dedication) for rules on how having multiple animal companions works.

Special You can select this feat more than once, gaining an additional animal companion each time, to a maximum of four total companions (including the one you gained from Beastmaster Dedication and possibly one you gained from sources other than the beastmaster archetype).

You can heal your animal companion's wounds. You can cast Heal Animal as a beastmaster focus spell. Increase the number of Focus Points in your focus pool by 1.

All of your animal companions grow up, becoming mature animal companions and gaining additional capabilities.

Your animal companion has greater independence. During an encounter, even if you don't use the Command an Animal action, your animal companion can still use 1 action that round on your turn to Strike or Stride (or Burrow, Climb, Fly, or Swim if it has that Speed). It can do this at any point during your turn, as long as you aren't currently taking an action. If it does, that's all the actions it gets that round—you can't Command it later.

You imbue your companion with the aspect of another animal. You gain the Spirit Of The Beast focus spell.

You can enter a trance that allows you to briefly inhabit the body of one of your animal companions and share its senses. You gain the focus spell Beastmaster Trance. Increase the number of Focus Points in your focus pool by 1.

Your companion's mere presence is enough to rattle creatures that fall under its shadow. When a creature adjacent to your animal companion that's smaller than it targets you with an attack, that creature becomes Frightened 1.

Your companions pick at an enemy's weak points. When your companion strikes a Off Guard creature with an agile or finesse unarmed attack, it deals an additional 1d4 precision damage (2d4 if the animal companion is specialized). If the companion already deals precision damage, combine the precision damage.

Trigger You roll initiative.

When danger appears, you quickly send away your active companion and call in a different animal ally. You use Call Companion. The new animal companion typically arrives in the same location as the one that departed, though the GM might adjust this depending on the circumstances and Speeds of the animals. If you have Lead The Pack, you can swap one of your two active companions for an inactive companion.

You encourage your companion to refuse to yield, against even the mightiest of foes. When one of your animal companions is reduced to 0 Hit Points, if it isn't wounded, it can remain standing with 1 Hit Point and become Wounded 1.

Your mature animal companions continue to grow and develop. Each of them becomes a nimble or savage animal companion, gaining additional capabilities determined by the type of companion. You choose nimble or savage individually for each companion, including any companion that becomes mature after you take this feat.

You and your companion move to take down a common enemy. You and your animal companion both Stride. If both of you end your movement within reach of the same creature, you and your animal companion each make a melee Strike against the creature. You can use Pack Movement to Burrow, Climb, Fly, or Swim instead of Stride if both you and your animal companion have the corresponding movement type.

You can communicate telepathically with your animal companions within 100 feet. If you're legendary in Nature, you can communicate telepathically with your animal companions anywhere on the planet.

You've taught your companions to charge directly at an enemy. Your companions with a qualifying unarmed Strike learn the Ferocious Charge activity.

Ferocious Charge 2 The companion Strides up to twice its Speed in a straight line and makes an antlers, head, or horn Strike. If it moved at least 20 feet, it deals an additional 1d8 damage. This damage increases to 2d8 if your companion is specialized. The companion can use Ferocious Charge while Burrowing, Climbing, Flying, or Swimming instead of Striding if it has the corresponding movement type.

Your companion weaves in and out of combat, swiftly attacking before getting to a better position. Your companions with a qualifying unarmed attack learn the Running Kick activity.

Running Kick 2 This companion Strides up to twice its Speed and makes a hoof, foot, or talon Strike at any point during the movement. This movement doesn't provoke reactions from a creature damaged by the Strike.

Like how a constrictor wraps itself around its next meal, your companion tightens its teeth around its constrained prey to squeeze the life out of it. Your companions with a qualifying unarmed attack learn the Sinking Jaws activity.

Sinking Jaws 1

Requirements This companion has a creature Grabbed or Restrained with its jaws or fangs

Effect This companion's grabbed or restrained foe takes piercing damage equal to the companion's level plus Strength modifier.

Your companion swings its tail powerfully. Your companions with a qualifying unarmed attack learn the Sweeping Tail activity.

Sweeping Tail 2 This companion makes two tail Strikes against different creatures within its reach, increasing its multiple attack penalty as normal. On a hit, it pushes a target back 5 feet or 10 feet on a critical hit. This is forced movement.

Your companion sinks its claws and rips. Your companions with a qualifying unarmed attack learn the Vicious Rend activity.

Vicious Rend 2 Make two claw, fist, pincer, or talon Strikes against the same target, applying the multiple attack penalty as normal. If both Strikes hit, the target takes an additional 1d6 persistent bleed damage. This damage increases to 2d6 if your companion is specialized.

Frequency once per turn

You quickly call in a primal projection of a non-active companion to provide the companion's support benefit. The projection arrives in an unoccupied square of your choice within 30 feet of you, grants you its support benefit, and then disappears on your next turn. The projection has the same AC and saving throw modifiers as the real companion, and if it would take any damage before your next turn, it disappears and the support benefit ends immediately.

You've trained your winged companions to gather air in their wings, whipping up a concentrated gust of wind at opponents, potentially staggering them. Your companions with wings gain a gust ranged unarmed attack, which deals 1d4 bludgeoning damage with a range of 30 feet and has the air and propulsive traits. On a critical hit, the target is pushed back 5 feet. This is forced movement.

Your nimble and savage animal companions become cunning enough to become specialized. Each companion gains one specialization of your choice. Choose the specialization separately for each companion, including any companion that becomes specialized after you take this feat.

Special You can select this feat more than once. Each time, add a different specialization to your nimble and savage companions. Your nimble and savage companions can have up to three specializations each.

You can have up to two animal companions active at once. However, when you do, it's slightly more difficult to Command them. If you don't Command either of your companions, one of the two (your choice) can still use 1 action on your turn to Stride or Strike, as per Mature Beastmaster Companion, but not both.

When you Command an Animal, either choose one of the companions to take 2 actions, as normal, or else both companions can take 1 action to Stride or Strike. Either way, you can't Command an Animal to make either companion act again until your next turn.

You've worked to sharpen your companions' instincts to supernatural levels. When one of your companions rolls a success on a saving throw, it gets a critical success instead.

Requirements You have two active companions.

The pack is strongest when it acts as one, and like a group of hungry wolves, you work together to bring down a single target. If you and both of your active companions threaten the same creature, each of you makes a melee Strike against it. The creature is Off Guard against all of these attacks. If more than one attack hits, combine the damage from all successful Strikes, and apply resistances and weaknesses only once.
