Bonded Mind
You and your partner are so close that you can almost read each other’s minds.
Benefit: As long as you can see each other, you and an ally who also has this feat can trade nonverbal messages. These function as the message spell, except that you don’t need to whisper or point, and you cannot be overheard.

You feign weakness, making yourself a tempting and distracting target.
Prerequisite: Bluff 5 ranks.
Benefit: Whenever you make a melee attack and hit your opponent, you can use a free action to grant that opponent a +2 bonus on attack and damage rolls against you until the end of your next turn or until your opponent attacks you, whichever happens first.

Prerequisite: Spellcraft 3 ranks.
Benefit: Whenever you are within 30 feet of an ally who also has this feat, you can channel your magic through her when casting a spell or using a spell-like ability, provided that she has the spell on her class list or has the ability to cast it as a spell-like ability. The spell cannot have a range of personal. When you finish casting the spell, the ally may spend an immediate action to act as your conduit. Your ally must concentrate to act as the conduit for the spell, just as if she were casting the spell, and the spell is lost if a concentration check is required and she fails (such as from damage, or to cast the spell defensively). If successfully cast, the spell originates from the ally’s space instead of yours. You remain the spell’s caster for the purpose of determining the caster level, saving throw DC, and so on, but your ally selects the targets or area affected and makes any required attack rolls for the spell.

All allies with this feat also gain this bonus against that opponent.
Darting Retrieval
As your ally disarms a foe, you knock the disarmed item out of the way.
Prerequisites: Int 13, Deft Maneuvers.
Benefit: When an ally who also has this feat disarms an opponent and the disarmed item lands within your melee reach, as an immediate action you can move the disarmed item to another square within your melee reach.

You gain the bonus only if neither of the qualifying opponents is flat-footed, helpless or otherwise unable to act. You must be able to see your ally to gain the benefit of this feat. If another ally who is not threatening your chosen foe makes any sort of attack against that foe (such as a ranged attack or a spell), you lose this feat’s benefit for 1 round.

Your movement from using this feat counts toward your movement on your next turn.
Lookout
Your allies help you avoid being surprised.
Benefit: Whenever you are adjacent to an ally who also has this feat, you may act in the surprise round as long as your ally would normally be able to act in the surprise round. If you would normally be denied the ability to act in the surprise round, your initiative is equal to your initiative roll or the roll of your ally –1, whichever is lower.

Prerequisites: Alertness, Sense Motive 3 ranks.
Benefit: Whenever you’re adjacent to an ally who also has this feat, if your ally is not flat-footed, you’re also not considered flat-footed before you act in combat (you might become flat-footed in other ways, however). Additionally, if your ally can see a creature that you can’t see, that creature doesn’t gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls against you from being invisible, nor do you take a –2 penalty to AC for being blinded if your ally can see.
Outflank
You look for every edge when flanking an enemy.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +4.
Benefit: Whenever you and an ally who also has this feat are flanking the same creature, your flanking bonus on attack rolls increases to +4. In addition, whenever you score a critical hit against the flanked creature, it provokes an attack of opportunity from your ally.

Paired Opportunists
You know how to make an enemy pay for lax defenses.
Benefit: Whenever you are adjacent to an ally who also has this feat, you receive a +4 circumstance bonus on attacks of opportunity against creatures that you both threaten.

Punch Through
You and your allies are adept at bypassing enemy defenses.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +6.
Benefit: As a full-round action, you may make a single attack against a target.

Secret Language
You and your allies have worked out a complex set of codes and phrases that allow you to secretly pass information back and forth.
Prerequisites: Bluff 1 rank, Linguistics 1 rank, Sense Motive 1 rank.
Benefit: You gain a +5 circumstance bonus on Bluff checks made to pass secret messages to other characters that have this feat, and can communicate as much information as you could normally say in one round as a swift action.
Seize the Moment
You and your allies are poised to pounce whenever one of you scores a telling blow.

Shield Wall
You form a unified defense with those around you.
Prerequisite: Shield Proficiency.
Benefit: Whenever you are wielding a shield and are adjacent to an ally wielding a shield who also has this feat, the AC bonus from your shield increases, depending on the shield wielded by your ally. If your ally is wielding a buckler or a light shield, your shield bonus increases by +1. If your ally is wielding a heavy shield or a tower shield, your shield bonus increases by +2. You keep these bonuses even if your ally loses his shield bonus due to making a shield bash attack. If an adjacent ally with this feat uses a tower shield to grant total cover, you also benefit if an attack targeting you passes through the edge of the shield.
Spell Chain
You help your allies bypass your foes’ magical defenses.
Prerequisite: Spell Penetration.
Benefit: Whenever you make a successful caster level check to overcome a target’s spell resistance, the next ally who also has this feat that attempts to overcome the same target’s spell resistance can roll twice when attempting his own caster level check, taking the better result. This benefit must be used within 1 round or else it is lost.
Stealth Synergy
Working closely with an ally, you are able to move like twin shadows.
Benefit: While you can see one or more allies who also have this feat, whenever you and your allies make a Stealth check, you may take the result of your die roll or that of one of your allies (your modifiers still apply to the roll, regardless of which result you take).
Swap Places
You are skilled at changing places with your ally during a chaotic melee.
Benefit: Whenever you are adjacent to an ally who also has this feat, you can move into your ally’s square as part of normal movement. At the same time, your ally moves into your previous space as an immediate action. Both you and your ally must be willing and able to move to take advantage of this feat. Your ally must be the same size as you to utilize this feat. Your ally does not provoke an attack of opportunity from this movement, but you provoke as normal. This movement does not count against your ally’s movement on his next turn.
Tandem Trip
You know how to work together to trip your foes.
Benefit: Whenever you attempt a trip combat maneuver against an enemy threatened by an ally with this feat, you roll twice and take the better result.
Target of Opportunity

Trade Initiative
You’re an expert at helping your partner respond faster, and vice versa.
Benefit: After initiative is rolled but before enemies’ initiative is revealed, you may trade the results of your die roll (not including modifiers) with an adjacent ally who also possesses this feat.
Wounded Paw Gambit
Your enemy sees you as an easy mark, but doesn’t notice your allies poised to shoot.
Prerequisites: Broken Wing Gambit, Bluff 5 ranks.
Benefit: Whenever you use Broken Wing Gambit and an opponent attacks you as a result, each ally who has this feat and is within 30 feet of that opponent can attempt a ranged attack against it as an immediate action. The ally’s ranged weapon must be in hand, loaded, and ready to be fired or thrown in order to make this attack possible. An ally who has this feat and Broken Wing Gambit can instead use Broken Wing Gambit to attempt an attack of opportunity against the foe, but cannot attempt both that attack of opportunity and this ranged attack.
