The feat is called DRYAD BLOODLINE and as you can probably guess by the name it states that the character has discovered that somewhere in their ancestry there was a Dryad. the boost this feat grants are + 1 to Constitution +2 Wisdom with a + 2 boost to both Nature & Survival skills.
What do you guys think? is this feat ok, too weak/ OP? do you think i should make any changes before making it public?
I would say that it is too powerful. A feat is supposed to be equivalent to 2 points to your ability scores so that it is a fair trade off. Because this feat gives 3 points to the scores and some other bonus, there is no possible reason to not take it, especially for a Druid, Cleric, or Ranger.

Anything is edible if you try hard enough!
I am a swimmer. If you see me running, you should run too, because it means something horrible is chasing me.
yeah; feats giving a bonus to a certain score are generally limited to a +1 to one specific score (in your example it could be a +1 wisdom) and then what about expertise in nature to compensate for the fact it is intelligence-based?
Thanks for the feedback guys. Truth be told I created this feat six months ago as an alternative to a Druid circle I’d created and realised was much too powerful. This feat is tame in comparison to that circle but as you say a little spicier than the average feat. That is why in my games it is only available either at creation or as a DM reward.
