For me Heavy Armor Mastery is one of my favorite feats.
The amount of damage it reduces from you stacks up during the entire campaign. Whether it is a hoard of Kobolds or strong enemies hitting you multiples times, it will allow you to survive several hits longer than if you didn't have it.
It works the best with Rune Knight's Hill Rune, since getting a DR3 on top of S/P/B resistance makes even an Adult Dragon trivial. Ancient Dragon if its a Green one.
In one of my campaign a vHuman Fighter had Heavy Armor Master and he was immensely resilient in Tier 1, still very so in second and even by early Tier 3 the ammount of damage he was avoiding was still quite considerable daily in each combat overall. I found few monsters' natural attacks could bypass it but it eventually become less efficient.
