[QUOTE="Chris_Nightwing, post: 6168749, member: 882"] The way spellcasting will work is somewhat as I predicted a while back. There's a fixed chart that you ascend to determine how many spells you can cast per day. I thought, however, that you would add up your individual class levels for preparation - a Cleric 3 / Wizard 3 would prepare 3 spells from each class and choose which ones to cast with which slots. Mike wrote that you'll prepare as X or Y.. which means you only get 3 arcane or 3 divine spells to choose from for the day? That's not very Cleric/Wizard in my mind. They will also need to modify the acquisition of spells for Paladins/Rangers, so that their levels count as half for the purposes of determining where you are on the spellcasting chart. As for Fighter levels not contributing unless you take a specific subclass - UGH. If you're a Wizard, we now know that your attack bonus will scale with every other class, up to +6, but you can only use that with weapons that you have proficiency for. So if you spend a feat, you'll be greatsword-wielding with the best of them. Now if you're a Fighter, your levels count for nothing in the grand spellcasting scheme, and the feats you can take don't modify that. I guess this is a result of breaking down martial abilities into little packets (a weapon here, an armour there) and leaving spellcasting as one great big lump. If you could acquire proficiency in a spell school, or a domain list, then Fighter levels could fairly count for at least half on the spellcasting chart and you would need to spend a feat to gain proficiency in a small section of spellcasting.
