[QUOTE="SableWyvern, post: 247880, member: 1008"] I can't help with your magic item, I really haven't thoroughly studied the item rules yet. However, on the matter of the DD - If you nerf the extra spells, and replace them with a + 1 caster level at levels 2, 5, ,7 and 10 you'll end up with a slightly improved increase in spells/day, as well as increases in known spells and caster level. Alternately (and this is what I'm doing IMC), increase effective caster level by 1 with each level that gives a bonus spell. (ie, the specific character in question would cast as an 8th level sorcerer, even though he only has the spells of a 6th level sorcer, plus two bonus spells). As mikebr99 said, the DD is not really a spellcasting PrC. It does offer a lot of potent increases though, and I would be very cautious about adding too much to the class. (At 9th level, your DD character should be the only one in the party with 3 attacks per round, without using a feat - and if he uses claw as his primary, he gets two of them at his primary bab). At sorc10/DD10, his hp will outstrip virtually all pure arcane spell users, he'll have unarmed attacks of around +16/+16/+11, breath weapon, undispellable flight, reach... [/QUOTE]
