Mobile. Love being able to avoid attacks of opportunity. I don’t know if this is possible but I want to try pairing it as a longsword wielding ranger hunter with horde breaker and whirlwind attack abilities.

I have seen the math for Elven Accuracy. It is a good feat, but it is NOT too good to pass up. It looks better than it is, because people are bad at math and forgot to think about the case where you roll 2 or more good scores. Basically, if you can't hit a barn door, elven accuracy is incredible. But if you are the guy that only misses on a 3 or lower, it does little.

It almost triples your chance to roll a Crit. And in conjunction with Sharpshooter....

Yet another person that is bad at math. You do not get advantage all the time. But assuming you do have advantage, it adds almost 50% to your crit chance, it does not triple it. Because it does nothing without advantage, and if you already have advantage your crit chance goes from 9.75% to 14.25%. You thought it went from 5% because that is the chance of a crit if you do not have advantage, but Elven Accuracy does nothing then.
If you get advantage more than 1/2 the time, you are doing remarkably well. And likely spending a ton of party resources to obtain it. Is that crit you just rolled "yours" or the Druid's who cast Faerie Fire? Critting but taking two party member's actions is NOT a good deal (better for both to hit, you double their strength as well as the die.)

Yeah idk what the math is exactly, but in-game application with sharpshooter is great if you are always skulking about like I am. Great feat for multi-classing a rogue/barbarian.

Yet another person who is rude and insulting for no reason. And my character can cast their own Faerie Fire, thereby granting advantage to my whole party and double benefitting my own character thank you very much.
I apoligze for insulting you. But you looked at the math and thought a <50% increase was a 200% increase, and assumed that a costly event was free.
Even if you cast your own faerie fire, quite a lot of the time you will STILL be better off just attacking twice. Yes, against the big bad boss that only hit on an 18 or better, the faerie fire 1st action, attack with elven accuracy later makes a lot of sense. but against a hoard, there are better things to do.
I love Magic Initiate. It lets me flavor any class differently by adding magic that the PC wouldn’t otherwise have access to without needing to multi class because I dislike multi classing for my characters. I’m looking at Spell Sniper, but It’s most effective in a campaign where the DM has the party’s opponents use cover.

Ignore the socially inept, bud. In any case, i'll have to make a class around using faerie fire with EA. thanks for the tip.
What are your favorite official Feats, and why?
For example: Dual Wielder, for the +1 AC, and and able to fight with two melee attacks.
Please note this isn't for the objective best feats in the game, only your personal favorite feat(s).

Wood Elf Magic.
Pass without a Trace + Longstrider both which can be cast once per long rest without using a spell slot + a druid cantrip of your choice.
Perfect on my Wood Elf Druid :D
That actually sounds awesome
That does sound good for hit and run tactics, and for quick escapes
All the racial ones are good.
But I love Dwarven Fortitude. +1 to con AND Dodge = heal 1 hitdie + your con.
Elven Accuracy for practically double advantage.
War Caster for any spell slingers.

Magic Initiate, to pick up Hex as a wizard. It lets you be better at Jim's Magic Missiles, Magic Missiles, and Scorching Ray.
Please check out my homebrew, I would appreciate feedback:
Spells, Monsters, Subclasses, Races, Arcknight Class, Occultist Class, World, Enigmatic Esoterica forms
Depends on class or type of character.
Great weapon master with a half orc barbarian cause thematically speaking it makes sense.
Sharpshooter for the party sniper. So you can be like Hawkeye only not completely useless.
Mobile cause opportunity attacks are stupid.
Healer...well it makes you a healer. Under used feat in my opinion.
I like Spell Sniper. Being able to hit things really far away feels nice for flavor, especially on a Warlock that specializes in Eldritch Blast.
