[QUOTE="Aurio, post: 1919564, member: 24583"] I recently purchased complete arcane and became kinda fond of the elemental savant PtC, but i have a question. Does the Elemental Savant's Elemental Specialty imply that he cannot cast using any other element? I guess that's the case, so i wonder, could the achmage's "elemental mastery" high arcana get an elemental savant out of this "unpleasant" condition? Moreover i think i've heard smth of a feat in frostburn that'll make ice spells overcome resistance and immunity to cold (which'd be just as cool for a elemental savant specialized in cold). Could anyone give me some feedback on it? Edit: i meant the mastery of elements high arcana: Mastery of Elements: The archmage can alter an arcane spell when cast so that it utilizes a different element from the one it normally uses. This ability can only alter a spell with the acid, cold, fire, electricity, or sonic descriptor. The spell’s casting time is unaffected. The caster decides whether to alter the spell’s energy type and chooses the new energy type when he begins casting. This ability costs one 8th-level spell slot. [/QUOTE]
