[QUOTE="Viktyr Gehrig, post: 2494433, member: 9249"] Alright, this is my first shot: [b]Bardic Versatility[/b]: [list][*]A Bard's caster level and spells count as both arcane and divine spells for the purposes of meeting prerequisites. If it matters, the Bard's spells may count as either arcane or divine, chosen at the time of casting. [*]At any level when a Bard gains access to a new level of spells (2nd, 4th, 7th, 10th, 13th, and 16th), they may add a spell from the spell list of any class as one of their Spells Known. They may not choose Cleric Domain spells or Shugenja Order spells. [*]Bards, unlike other spellcasters, may use the Extra Spell feat to learn spells from the spell lists of other classes.[/list] Basically, this gives the Bard an extra Spell Known per level (so far, all full spontaneous casters end up with an extra Spell Known per level, though it's typically from a fixed list) and allows them to choose one spell per level from any spellcasting list. They're still limited to 6th level spells and they can't get at unique spells. If the Extra Spell use is a problem, I could easily remove that clause and limit them to the spells granted by the class feature. Another possible limitation is to restrict which spell lists (or even which schools, [i]a la[/i] Warmage) the Bard may select spells from. [/QUOTE]
