[QUOTE="wildstarsreach, post: 3254499, member: 43141"] I believe that the decision that the FAQ made for the feat Extra Spell maybe incorrect. I think that my premises make my argument valid as this is a conservative decision that that does not apply to standard spontaneous casters. This feat has the most affect on a spontaneous caster. This argument is not for the wizard as this is not who this seems designed for. On page 18 of the FAQ, the answer is no and I believe that this is because of two things, he has access to all Warmage spells of the level he can cast and he already has the advanced learning special ability. This has been interpreted that since the Warmage cannot benefit, that all other spontaneous casters have the same limitation. I think that this is a misinterpretation on most peoples part. The part that address’s wizards leaves some to make the possible argument that this may allow spells that may be allowed only to another class. ” For classes such as wizard that have more options for learning spells, Extra Spell is generally used to learn a specific spell that the character lacks access to and would be unable to research.” This is almost a waste of a feat since the Collegiate Wizard feat that a wizard could taken at 1st level on Page 181 of the Complete Arcane. Now, unlike the Expanded Knowledge (Psionic), which does allow Psionic character to take one additional power of one level than he can manifest from any list, even restricted unknown lists. This feat does not explicitely state. Extra spell is most like Expanded Knowledge Psionics and should have a clarification towards that. Psions and other Psionic classes have limited number of powers and effects like sorcerers and most other spontaneous casters. Most classes that spontaneously cast learn just a few spells per level. A Warmage has access to his entire list so this class should not be the example in which the clarification of this feat is the rule. Can the Warmage (Complete Arcane) benefit from the Extra Spell feat? No. Extra Spell lets you add one spell to your list of spells known, but the spell must be taken from your class spell list. Since the Warmage already knows all the spells on his class spell list, this feat has no effect. [/QUOTE]
