Reliable Ability {{#set:Type=General}} Summary::When using an ability with limited use per day, you can use the ability again if it fails. {{#set:Prerequisite=None}}Benefit: Select one feat, class ability, or spell which you have limited daily uses of. Whenever you use the selected ability (chosen at the time of taking this feat), you do not lose a use of it if the ability misses or fails to activate. For example, a Paladin that acquired Reliable Smite would not lose a daily use of her Smite ability if she made an attack with it and missed though she would still expend the daily use if she hit a non-evil creature or failed to overcome a target's spell resistance. A Wizard that selected Reliable Fireball would not lose a daily spell slot for fizzling a fireball spell due to arcane spell failure.Special: This feat can be selected multiple times; its effects do not stack. Each time it is selected it allows you to select a new ability with this feat.

-:'''Benefit:''' Whenever you use the selected ability, you do not lose a use of it if you miss with your attack. For example, a paladin that acquired Reliable Smite would not lose a daily use of her Smite ability if she made an attack with it and missed though she would still expend the daily use if she hit a nonevil creature or failed to overcome a target's spell resistance. A fighter that selected Reliable Grapple Strike (see Combat Strike) would be able to make a Grapple Strike with the first attack that hit the round they used it rather than purely the first attack. A wizard that selected Reliable Fireball would not lose a daily spell slot for fizzling a ''fireball'' spell.
