Benefits: This is a skill feat that scales with your ranks in Balance. * 0 ranks: You gain a +3 bonus to your Balance checks. * 4 ranks: If an effect would knock you prone, if you succeed on a DC 20 Balance check, you remain standing. * 9 ranks: If your opponent is balancing, you gain a +3 dodge bonus to AC against their attacks unless they succeed at beating you in an opposed Balance check. * 14 ranks: All Balance DCs are halved for you. * 19 ranks: You never suffer any impairment or damage from anything you're standing on, whether it's molten lava, a cloud, or even another creature. Ambient conditions, such as lighting or weather, can still impair you.
