Luck is a game-changer. With three points to spend per Long Rest, you can turn the tide of battles by gaining Advantage on crucial rolls or forcing enemies to reroll unfavorable attacks. It’s a versatile and powerful tool for any Barbarian build.

8 – Mage Slayer

Tiefling Barbarian with the Mage Slayer feat

How to UnlockDescription
Available at Level 4When a creature casts a spell within melee range of you, you have Advantage on any Saving Throw against it, and you can use a reaction to immediately make an attack against the caster.
Enemies you hit have Disadvantage on Concentration Saving Throws.
Mage Slayer is tailor-made for Barbarians who dread enemy spellcasters. This Feat gives you Advantage on saves against spells and allows you to counterattack mages who dare to cast spells near you. Additionally, hitting a mage disrupts their concentration, making them far less effective.

7 – Athlete

When you are Prone, standing up uses significantly less movement. Your Jump distance also increases by 50%.
Athlete is a solid all-around Feat for Barbarians. It boosts either Strength or Dexterity, depending on your preference, and improves your mobility by reducing the cost of standing up from Prone and increasing your Jump distance. Perfect for explorers and fighters alike.

6 – Savage Attacker

How to UnlockDescription
Available at Level 4When making melee weapon attacks, you roll your damage dice twice and use the highest result.
Savage Attacker is pure damage potential. By rolling two damage dice and keeping the higher result, you ensure your attacks pack a punch. It’s simple yet effective, fitting perfectly with the Barbarian's aggressive playstyle.

5 – Charger

The Charger feat

How to UnlockDescription
Available at Level 4Deal more damage: charge forward and slam your weapon into the first enemy in your way.
Doesn’t provoke Opportunity Attacks.
Charger is thematic and practical. By charging into battle, you can deal massive damage to the first enemy in your path without triggering Opportunity Attacks. This Feat excels in positioning and dealing damage, making it ideal for Barbarians who love to dive headfirst into the fray.

4 – Tough

The Tough feat

How to UnlockDescription
Available at Level 4Your hit point maximum increases by 2 for every level you have gained.
Gives hit points retroactively.
Tough is a no-brainer for Barbarians. For every level you gain, you receive an additional 2 hit points. At the current level cap of 12, this adds up to a significant boost in survivability. Take it early for maximum benefit, especially since it applies retroactively.

3 – Sentinel

The Sentinel feat

How to UnlockDescription
Available at Level 4When an enemy within melee range attacks an ally, you can use a reaction to make a weapon attack against that enemy. Target ally must not have the Sentinel Feat.
You gain Advantage on Opportunity Attacks, and when you hit a creature with an Opportunity Attack, it can no longer move for the rest of its turn.
Sentinel is a tanky Feat that complements the Barbarian's role perfectly. It allows you to punish enemies attempting to harm your allies, preventing them from moving afterward. Combined with other Feats like Polearm Master, it becomes nearly impossible for enemies to bypass you.

2 – Polearm Master
