[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7065082, member: 12731"] My first thought was actually something completely different. This thread is as good as any to bring it up. The Wizard ability Spell Mastery is god awful, especially at such a lofty level (18th). Saving low-level slots is hardly a pressing concern for archmages. Much better and more level-appropriate would be for Spell Mastery to allow you to cast your chosen spells without the Concentration requirement! S p e l l M a s t e r y At 18th level, you have achieved such mastery over certain spells that you effortlessly maintain concentration on them. Choose a 1st-level wizard spell and a 2nd-level wizard spell that are in your spellbook and each requires Concentration. You can cast either of those spells at their lowest level even if you are already Concentrating on another spell without losing that other spell. If your Concentration is broken, you lose both spells. By spending 8 hours in study, you can exchange one or both of the spells you chose for different spells of the same levels. This phrasing essentially waives the Focus requirement without dropping the Disruption drawback (see my previous post explaining Focus and Disruption). [/QUOTE]
