Altered Battle Master

Student of War

At 3rd level, you gain proficiency with one type of artisan's tools of your choice.

Improved Combat Superiority

Also at 3rd level, your tactical skill in combat improves, granting bonuses to your Combat Superiority.

Signature Maneuver

Finally, at 3rd level you choose a maneuver you know from this class that is not Ambush, Bolster, Commanding Presence, Rally, or Tactical Assessment as your signature maneuver. Whenever you use that maneuver, you can use it without expending a Superiority Dice. You may only use this feature once per round.

Know Your Enemy

Starting at 7th level, if you spend at least 1 minute observing or interacting with another creature outside combat, you can learn certain information about its capabilities compared to your own. The DM tells you if the creature is your equal, superior, or inferior in regard to two of the following characteristics of your choice:

• Strength score
• Dexterity score
• Constitution score
• Armor Class
• Current hit points
• Total class levels, if any
• Fighter class levels, if any

Greater Signature Maneuver

At 10th level, you choose a second signature maneuver, following the same rules. You may still only use one signature maneuver per round.

Relentless

Starting at 15th level, when you roll initiative and have no superiority dice remaining, you regain 1 superiority die.

Maneuver Mastery

At 18th level, once per round, when you would roll a Superiority Die, you can instead choose the maximum in place of rolling.
