Unquantifiable?

I don't get it, this feat is pretty clean and clear cut: it give your weapon the aptitude property. Why is it labelled as "unquantifiable"? --Mock Turtle 19:00, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Because the aptitude quality in itself, I would surmise, is unquantifiable (at least in the tagger's eyes). Looking at it, I can understand that to some extent. Also, if you'll look at the edit summary:
Added balance point - depends completely on which other feats you have
If you disagree, feel free to expand on your previous question. -- Jota 19:55, January 12, 2010 (UTC)
Well, what about the aptitude property makes it unquantifiable? I mean, I don't have a copy of the Tome of Battle open in front of me, but, doesn't the property specifically pertain to Weapon Focus? If it does, then I am failing to see anything unpredictable about the feat. If it doesn't then might I ask for a little explination about what would make it unpredictable? I still can't see what would make it so. --Mock Turtle 20:33, January 12, 2010 (UTC)
The property pertains to Favored Weapon feats, yes. Specifically, n weapon's other magical properties will not function for someone who does not have a favored weapon: this weapon feat. Such an ability seems really trivial for the enhancement value it is set at in my eyes, though it is possible that in certain campaigns and under certain conditions it could have value, hence unquantifiable. -- Jota 21:57, January 12, 2010 (UTC)
