Message: <blockquote data-quote="Felix" data-source="post: 3252575" data-attributes="member: 3929">As wildstarsreach has posted, the precise wording is:Emphasis added.The underlined portion of the text is the actual game-mechanical effect of the feat; the rest of the wording serves to exemplify that which has been said, and to explain why a class which can scribe as many spells as they like into their spellbooks would want to take this feat.I never really saw the need for the "cost and research" argument because none of the text restricts which spells may be chosen via this feat; not to mention that the word "generally" appears implying that there might be other reasons why spellbook casters might want to take this feat.As written, the only restriction on the spell chosen is that it be one level lower than the highest level spell the character can cast.Most of the disagreements on the Rules forum stem from a muddling of the arguments about "What is written" and "What should be written". I suspect this may be your trouble here; the FAQ is often cited in "should be" arguments, but rarely in "what is" arguments. And as for "poorly worded", if the intent was to restrict the character's choice, then it was indeed poorly worded; this does not mean that what was written is unclear, unbalanced, or unplayable. And don't let 90% of the responses push you around; only one opinion matters in the end: your own.But then, being obstinate for its own sake isn't a virtue either. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
