[QUOTE="rowport, post: 4480366, member: 9729"] I like the idea, but feel that it might be too restrictive-- having both race and class restrictions makes it very limited. I also do not like calling out "feat" specifically for Light Shield Proficiency and Chainmail Proficiency, since you might get both with a core class using the Swordmage multiclass feat; the way it is written would prohibit a Fighter with Swordmage multiclass feat from qualifying, since his Proficiencies are class features instead of feats. Last, I would suggest eliminating the Light Shield Proficiency requirement, since a Swordmage choosing to use a shield gives up his Swordmage Warding class feature (which says "...if you are wielding a blade in one hand and have the other hand free (not carrying a shield, an off-hand weapon, a two-handed weapon or anything else)." I would expect that most Swordmages would not use a shield for that reason. [/QUOTE]
