However, if the virtual ability is lost for some reason, you lose all abilities of the ability it was used to qualify for until such time as you have access to the original prerequisite again.Example: Ranger with Two-Weapon Fighting as a virtual feat uses this feat to qualify for {X} PrC.  Now say for some reason, at some point this Ranger straps on Plate armor and wades into combat. Since TWF is a virtual feat conditional to not wearing medium or heavy armor, the Ranger loses the TWF feat for the duration he is in the heavy armor. Since he loses access to TWF, the Ranger ALSO loses all class abilities from PrC {X} (and from any other feat/class that has TWF as a pre-requisite as well). This does not effect, HD, BAB, Skill Points or Saves from PrC {X}, just class abilities.  When the Ranger removes the armor, they again have access to all of their abilities.</blockquote>
