Fighting Style

Prerequisite: Level 4

Note: This feat can be chosen multiple times, but you can't take the same Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

You adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options.

Archery

You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged and thrown weapons.

Defense

While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to Armor Class.

Mounted Combat

When you are mounted on a creature, you fight as one. You gain the following benefits, unless you are incapacitated:

• The mount cannot take damage, and all attacks against the mount target the rider instead.

• If the mount would take damage from something that doesn't damage the rider, the rider takes the damage instead.

• The mount can otherwise be affected by terrain, spells, and abilities normally.

• See Mounts for general mounted rules.

Protection

Reaction - 1 Ally (5 ft.)

Trigger: A creature hits one of your allies within 5 ft. of you with an attack roll.

• You force the attacker to reroll the attack, targeting you instead. You must be holding a shield or melee weapon to use this ability.

Single Weapon Fighting

When you are wielding a single one or two-handed melee weapon and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon.

Two-Weapon Fighting

When you make an attack with an off-hand weapon, you do not suffer disadvantage on the attack roll. As normal, your off-hand weapon must be Light.
