[QUOTE="Falling Icicle, post: 1462806, member: 17077"] I totally disagree with that statement. But there is no sense in dragging on a pointless debate over 10 pages just to argue this one point. I've never said anything to the contrary. Only that it isn't so powerful as to be worthy of an insane LA. May be? Spellfire is not worth a level adjustment as high as 9 (or more) levels. A +1 or +2 LA would be acceptable, but in that case it should be treated as any other template and not require the purchase of the Spellfire Weilder feat. That is true. But once you hit 10th level, Spellfire is a pretty insignificant boost of capability to a spellcaster. An nice plus, absolutely. But it is certainly not worth devoting 10 levels to the Spellfire Channeler prestige class and its pathetic abilities when you could get 10 levels in another class instead. I'll take a Wizard 20 over a Wizard 10/Spellfire Channeler 10 any day. Maybe it's just me, but I would take Meteor Swarm and Mind Blank and all those other high levels spells over the ability to fly and surround myself in a crown of fire for a couple rounds. The Spellfire Weilder feat is among the most powerful feats in the game. But, on the flip side, the Spellfire Channler is among the most worthless and pathetic classes in the game. And before you go giving Spellfire Weilders a LA, take into consideration that there are roleplaying drawbacks to being a Spellfire that no other feat imposes on a character. [/QUOTE]
