I dare say that Blindfight will be a pre-req, as well as ranks in either Spellcraft or Knowledge (arcane). That's a natural progression.The ignore magical enhancements to armour is more troubling - though not quite for the reason you state. I object to spells that single out parts of the calculation to AC, because they're normally very fiddly to use. Monte Cook created some in one of his BoEM, and I detested them on sight.OTOH, if this only dispels temporary bonuses to AC, I'm less worried about it. The pre-reqs will have a lot to do with it, of course.Although it's easy to say "this increases the power of monsters", in truth, I think that's a minor concern. Monsters have a vast array of powers that break the rules in any case. Just consider a creature like the Bodak!Cheers!</blockquote>
