[QUOTE="comrade raoul, post: 936474, member: 554"] Consider these two feats. Note that these are designed for games without prestige classes, and they're specifically not intended to be used with "+1 spellcaster level" prestige classes like the Loremaster. If you use such classes, include this limitation with each of the feats: "Classes that provide advancement in spellcasting classes are not counted for purposes of this feat." [b]Arcane Dilettante [Special][/b] You continue your arcane training when engaging in other pursuits. [b]Prerequisite: [/b]Ability to cast arcane spells, levels in at least two classes. [b]Benefit:[/b] For purposes of determining your arcane spellcasting ability (including caster level, spells per day, and, if applicable, spells known), you are treated as though you were a number of levels higher equal to half of your total levels in other classes. However, the number of levels in other classes you may count towards this feat may not exceed your actual levels in your arcane spellcasting class (that is, you may not increase your effective level in your arcane spellcasting class by more than 50%). You do not gain any other benefits from higher level in your arcane spellcasting class (such as bonus feats, bardic music, or familiar advancement). The benefit of this feat can apply simultaneously, to multiple arcane spellcasting classes. For example, a wizard 4/fighter 4 with the Arcane Dilettante feat has the spellcasting ability of a 6th level wizard. A sorcerer 6/rogue 4/monk 4 has the spellcasting ability of a 9th level sorcerer (since no more than six levels in other classes can count towards this feat), and a sorcerer 8/bard 7 has the spellcasting abilities of an 11th level sorcerer and a 10th level bard. [b]Mystic Theurgy [Special][/b] You can pursue expertise in both arcane and divine magic simultaneously. [b]Prerequisite: [/b]Arcane Dilettante, ability to cast both arcane and divine spells, levels in at least two classes. [b]Benefit: [/b]For purposes of determining your divine spellcasting ability (including caster level, spells per day, and, if applicable, spells known), you are treated as though you were a number of levels higher equal to half of your total levels in arcane spellcasting classes (only). However, the number of levels in other classes you may count towards this feat may not exceed your actual levels in your divine spellcasting class (that is, you may not increase your effective level in your divine spellcasting class by more than 50%) You do not gain any other benefits from higher level in your divine spellcasting class (such as turn undead or wild shape). Note that unlike the Arcane Dilettante feat, only arcane spellcasting classes can provide a benefit. The benefit of this feat can apply simultaneously, to multiple divine spellcasting classes. For example, a wizard 4/cleric 4 with the Arcane Dilettante and Mystic Theurgy feast has the spellcasting ability of a 6th level wizard and a 6th level cleric. A wizard 8/cleric 4/druid 4 has the total spellcasting abilities of a 12th level wizard, a 6th level cleric, and a 6th level druid (the wizard levels improve both cleric and druid spellcasting ability, but no more than 4 wizard levels can count towards either). A druid 6/bard 5/monk 2 has the spellcasting abilities of an 8th level druid (as the monk levels do not count). [/QUOTE]
