[QUOTE="Dichotomy, post: 3650659, member: 12941"] I'll be brief, because I don't have much time right now. First, I talked to worthley a bit via chat about this already. As far as his question is concerned, it may depend upon how we resolve the other issues on the table. It may also depend upon WHICH spellcraft check we are discussing. (Perhaps you'd get different checks for preparing but not for learning or somesuch.) Second, Ti's "concession" and comments in his last post discuss the mechanics, but I still think we need to address issues BEHIND the mechanics. The issues (as I see them anyway) have little to do with what level of spell is being learned/copied. Third, that bit about guessing what spell to learn simply doesn't work (as I read it). If Bazrim DID guess the guy had fireball, and then DID choose to make that his learned spell upon leveling up, it would ALREADY be in his own spellbook (because the spells a wizard auto-learns upon leveling up are also automatically in his spellbook; he doesn't need to spend the time/gold copying them).
