I am wondering if the new feats for NPCs will be accessible for PCs in Hero Lab? Sorry if this has been asked.

Okay - thanks! What I am unsure about is whether the new Feats for the NPCs are actually usable by PCs too - does that make sense?

They're usuable if the PCs meet the prereqs I'd say, many have race requirements.

Ah - good point. So really not much use for PCs then I infer?

If you take a feat that you don't meet the pre-req's then the feat will still function correctly but HL will give you a "warning" message. So if your DM says you can take a race specific feat you can just take the feet and ignore the "red" warning text.

A good indication as to what would be useful to PCs may be the Pathfinder Society Organized Play's Additional Resources list: http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/a...lResources#RPG - basically, that's what another GM has chosen to allow their players to use from Monster Codex. Monster Codex is almost at the bottom of the page in that link.

Thanks - I think i will wait to see whether any PCs find a feat they want. If so, then I may consider buying the resource. Thanks for you time!

There were a lot of new PC options, if your GM allows them, such as archetypes, feats, alternate race traits, and magic items. I don't think it's a waste for a player to have such options but it depends on what your GM will let you use.
