Feats of Proficiency - Martial Weapons

A collection of basic Feats for every martial weapon, suitable for D&D 5e!

Proficiency is supposed to represent an ability beyond the average. It embodies training, experience, and expertise.

In the core rulebooks being proficient with a tool or in a skill means you can add your proficiency modifier to a check. This results in situations where a skilled warrior is only slightly better at handling a blade than a commoner picking up a sword for the first time.

With weapons specifically, proficiency should reflect a deeper understanding of a weapon, and knowing which tool to use for which situation.

With this supplement, I intend to provide additional options without adding too much complexity. They are described as “Feats” for lack of a better term, but are applied to any character wielding a martial weapon they are proficient with.
