Clerics and spontaineous spells

[Hawk764]

i have a question for you GM's out there.
as you all know, any spell caster who prepares spells can choose to not prepare up to half his slots each day and prepare them later, it allows already versitile wizards and clerics more versitility, but takes away from combat ablility, concidering the 15 min it takes to prepare the spells later.
I am considering allowing my clerics to still cast a (healing) spell spontaineously from one of these slots without preparation.

Also, i have considered allowing clerics to spontaineously cast spells from thier domaines instead of healing spells(unless they have the healing domaine)

Both good house rules... but not RAW.

A good cleric (or a cleric of a good deity) can spontaneously cast a cure spell in place of a prepared spell of the same level or higher, but not in place of a domain spell.

​

And for the 2nd one... Clerics are powerful enough, without further enhancing them by allowing all their full slots to be domain spells. I'd definitely NEVER be a Mage in that world! YMMV​

Heh I would with signature spell!

But that's it...

It's a nice thought but the trade off for open slots is to be abel to fill them with whatever you need, i.e. flexibility. This costs in number of spells per encounter however. There is a cost and a gain that are well balanced. Upsetting this balance, well, makes it a bit too good.

What means "RAW"?
