[QUOTE="reverendkeith, post: 1620624, member: 15384"] Of course... then again, I could use the same argument for the fighter. "The Fighter is very effective with swinging swords already. If your fighter has the right melee weapon feats, you should have little problem giving the party all the melee support it needs." ... and the fighter is a archer, and the wizard is a diviner, and the rogue is a backstabber. Perhaps I'm just not getting it, but how is this different than most other PrCs and classes out there? Every class seems to have PrCs devoted to amplifying one aspect of a class to the detriment of another. The Chiurgeon PrC that I referenced does exactly that. I lose five levels of turning, but instead get some perks with stabilzation, the Heal Skill (such as bonuses for long term recover, dealing with disease and poison, etc.), and even a +1 or +2 hp bonus for each spontaneously cast spell. What I was curious is that since there is a metric ton of archer, diviner, and backstabber PrCs out there, I must simply be missing the right books with the healer PrCs. If this thread has taught me anything, I'm not missing them. They don't exist... except for the lone Chiurgeon PrC I've already found. Too bad. That appears to be the route I'll be heading. Thanks for the list of feats! Definately food for thought. Homebrew, but so generic that I can file off serial numbers and nobody would notice the difference. :) [/QUOTE]
