[QUOTE="ezo, post: 9372511, member: 7037866"] Just judging from the playtest matieral, etc. that has already come. Also, every new release tends to have some level of power creep, which is unfortunate, but apparently unavoidable. (Which I disagree with... but it isn't my company.) For most players and DMs, you're (unfornately IMO) probably right, since they seem to embrace [I]MOAR[/I] in their games, which I generally don't. That was my thought, but I figured I'd get clarification. Options are good, of course, but going INT on this one would encourage it to become a must have (to a point) for Wizards, in particular. Nothing [I]wrong[/I] with that, of course, but encouraging metamagic to what many consider a very powerful class, improving its spellcasting ability modifier, would too easily put this on par with the top-tier feats IMO. I guess something like that would require playtesting and a larger pool for discussion, but that is just my view on it. After work I'll update the list I have.
