The Complete Feat: All Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition Feats

D&D 5E Feats: A very quick and dirty overview

This is a list of all 108 official feats from Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. These feats are scattered around a variety of books and other sources and it is incredibly difficult to find them all, so I am listing them all here in alphabetical order for the convenience of my players, and anyone else who thinks that it is incredibly frustrating to search around for them all when it’s time to level up. Levelling up takes long enough as it is, without the additional hassle of being unable to find all of the necessary content. I found some sources which had most of the official feats, but haven’t been able to find a source that has all of the available feats, so here it is. If I am missing any, please let me know, but I scratched and I dug and I think this is all of them. But I could be wrong- it happens.

Note that this is a page that lists all D&D 5E feats, not all D&D 5E 2024 feats. They are different games, and they probably should have named it D&D 6E or 5.5E to be less confusing, or stuck to D&D ONE/ONE D&D like they originally started naming it. Regardless, while WOTC is claiming that it is backwards compatible, it has become clear that the backwards compatibility does not extend to many aspects of the game. As a result, I’m not adding feats from the new version; these are only from Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. On the other hand, since WOTC is no longer going to be releasing content for 5E (focusing solely on 5E 2024 from this point on), this current list of 108 feats is now officially complete and unchanging, so I do not have to keep updating this page when new sources of feats are published, since they won’t be for this edition.

I have also added a few unofficial feats from the Tal’Dorei Campaign Setting to this page. While it is not an official D&D 5E book, I added the handful of new feats included in it to this page (while noting that each one is unofficial) because several Critical Role books are official, it was written by the same people who wrote the official ones, and Critical Role is an extremely popular Dungeons and Dragons setting. Use them if you choose, avoid them if not. Note that while I have included them here, they are not included in my count of the 108 official D&D 5E feats.

Also be warned that several of these feats are from the Plane Shift materials. While they are official Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition content, I am going to be blunt here: they are dumpster fires. It feels like they weren’t playtested, but were instead rushed out in order to have some cross content with Dungeons and Dragons for this Magic: The Gathering release. Much of it doesn’t make much sense, the rules are largely missing for much of it, and large chunks of it (including the small handful of feats) are largely stolen from pre-existing D&D 5E content. It is borderline unplayable (or maybe past borderline). I include it here for the sake of completeness, but I certainly wouldn’t want to suggest to any of my players that they actually take one of the feats from them, and I wouldn’t suggest that you use them either, but you do you.

That said, there are a LOT of feats listed here. I tried to give a super short sentence summary of what each feat mostly does, to make it at least marginally easier to skim through them. I tried to think of an easier way to categorise them, but in the end I think that would just end up making it harder to find things. So alphabetically it is. If you are skimming through, feel free to ignore ones from Planescape and Dragonlance if you’re not running those campaigns- otherwise, enjoy scanning through loads and loads of D&D 5E feats. And always remember that despite all of these feats being official according to Wizards of the Coast, you should always check with your dungeon master first to see whether a feat is acceptable to use for your campaign. Many of these won’t be acceptable for all campaigns (and a few are acceptable for none- I’m looking at you, Plane Shift…), so before you get too sold on one, check with your DM first.

While most of the sources for these feats are from hardcover books which you can buy at your friendly local game store, a few of them are only available digitally online. The good news is that most of those are also available for free. Here are the links to those sources, so you can download them for yourself:

That’s enough background information- now let’s get into the many different feats of Dungeons and Dragons 5E!

 

Aberrant Dragonmark

prerequisite: No other dragonmark

(Wayfinder’s Guide To Eberron page 112 & Eberron: Rising From The Last War page 52)

This feat gives you a couple of spells tied to some chaos. It does the following:

  • Your CON increases by 1 (to a maximum of 20, of course)

  • You learn a cantrip from the sorcerer spell list

  • You learn a 1st level spell from the sorcerer spell list, which you can cast through the mark once per short or long rest, after which you spend a hit die and if it is even you gain that many temporary hit points, while if it odd a random creature within 30 feet of you takes that much force damage (if there are no other creatures within 30 feet, you take that damage)

  • CON is the spellcasting ability of both of these new spells

  • The aberrant dragonmark comes with a random flaw, rolled on a d8:

    • 1) The mark constantly hurts

    • 2) The mark whispers gibberish constantly to you

    • 3) The mark hisses loudly when you’re stressed

    • 4) Skin around the mark is disfigured

    • 5) Animals are uneasy near you

    • 6) Using the mark triggers a mood swing

    • 7) Every time you use the mark your appearance changes a little

    • 8) Using the mark gives you terrible nightmares

  • If the DM allows it, there is an option for getting a greater power at or above 10th level when you have this feat: there’s a 10% chance at each level increase that they will get an epic boon (but only 1 can be gained in this way) which the DM either chooses or determines randomly
