benefit
  • http://dungeons.wikia.com/wiki/Special:SearchByProperty/Type/Symbiotic Symbiotic feats increase the effectiveness of your http://dungeons.wikia.com/wiki/Special:SearchByProperty/Type/Hivemaster Hivemaster feats. For your aspect of the mantis feat, you are considered to have one more level in hivemaster. The individual benefits of that feat are also altered, as follows. 3: The praying mantis is famous for it's vicious, serated claws that can end an equals life in an instant. So, you have taken on this trait as well, and you grow two claws that deal damage according to the table below. These are secondary natural attacks, and are in addition to any claw attacks you might already have . 7: Manti are adept hunters, and can move in an instant, striking their prey dead and returning to their previous position, before the eye can register that they moved at all. You have immulated this key facet of the mantis, and can now 'snipe' from distances lower than 10 feet away, and even with melee attacks . Also, when you 'snipe', you only take a -7 penalty on the resultant hide check, instead of the normal -20. 11: Manti are the fastest creatures in the insect kingdom, and can extend their body across impressive distances, and recoil faster than other bugs can manage. Your speed has begun to creep up towards this mark, and you can now make a single claw attack as a special immediate action. 15: The praying mantis, if quick enough, will always be the hunter, not the hunted, for they are continually tense, vigilant for any threat, ready to dodge away at any instant they are spotted, and so, you are too. You gain Tremorsense at a range of 5 feet per hivemaster level. If you already have Tremorsense for whatever reason, then the range of that Tremorsense doubles, instead.
