Threat Feats
If you’ve ever been lucky enough to roll a natural 20 followed
by a 1, you’ve probably wished for some minor benefit beyond an
automatic hit. This is where threat feats come in.
Threat feats are the silver medal of feats. They help curb that
moment of disappointment when you fail to confirm a critical hit.
Like Critical Focus and similar feats, they may not be useful at all
times, but when you can benefit from one, you’ll be glad you
chose it.

You can only apply the effects of 1 threat feat to each failed
confirmation roll.
