Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sagan Darkside" data-source="post: 531296" data-attributes="member: 9270">I bought it this past weekend and like it.I think they did a pretty good job of capturing the feel of the 7th Sea magic system into d20.These classes would work in a world without standard spellcasters. While each has its own level of power, I suspect any standard class would outshine them due to versatility (even the sorcerer).What bugged me:1) The feats to get into the class. That is a bit harsh. I can understand why they did it this way, but I think some other bonus from the feats would have been nice. 2) The arcana checks: Perhaps I missed it, one does not get much of a bonus to these and the DC's are pretty tough. I would, at least, allow players to add their prime ability bonus to the check. Or consider making it a skill.3) Again, I may have missed it, but there seems to be things missing. The flavor text is lifted from the 7th seas book, but it seems that some of the descibed effects are not in the game.IIRC- the fire mage descriptions mentions being able to shape fire (I believe a ladder is used as an example), but I could not find a power/spell that could do that.The fate witch descriptions mentions a possible backlashes that leave permanent scars, but I could not find the check for that.4) Finally, there is a (the name escapes me) scrying class that specializes around potions for women. The male equivilant gets some nice bonuses, but I can not see a player ever taking it. It is just too weak.Over all, believe it or not, I am happy with the book and will use it in a future campeign.SD</blockquote>
