[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 1665281, member: 1465"] All of them seems to be nice, only the first one in my opinion could have problems. I'll toss in my opinion on each, although they are only my minor notes :) This is the only feat which is very dangerous. Increasing the casting time is indeed a risk in combat, but all the spells that you get to cast out of combat basically get huge benefits for free. I don't understand clearly if you can increase the casting time for example of a factor of 3 to get 3 benefits on different parameters or the same, and I don't understand what do you mean by "factor", could you explain? This cumulative option only makes it even more powerful out of combat (think of a Cleric who turns a cure light wounds into basically a full-healing spell without using a higher slot). Finally, this is very versatile and you may find specific spell which should be outright banned by the DM from benefitting from this. This is fine, and I am glad you put high level requirements for this :) Only tiny note... I supposed you meant that you have to choose a school in which you have Focused Spellcaster rather than Spell Focus. I am not sure if +2 caster level is ok or a little too much, it really depends on the spell... probably it's ok, since you are at least caster level 7 when you can take this feat, and the difference is lesser. Just fine IMO, it is perfectly acceptable that it stacks. This again is very fine, perhaps I would be more generous and require to know only 1 shadow spell - in which case after all the caster is going to benefit only from that one. Also, are there 5 shadow spells at all in the PHB? :) These last two are on the weak side, but I think that for NPC casters they could be very interesting. [/QUOTE]
