[QUOTE="Pax, post: 1515352, member: 6875"] And that is the [b]intent[/b] behind the poassage you've misinterpreted. It's for sorceror/wizard spells that are [b]restricted access[/b], not for sorceror/wizard spells that are [i]not in the PHB.[/i] Again - read the SRD version, and tell me where THAT says anything that supports what you're interpreting it to be, even [b]once[/b]. The wording in the 3.0 PHB said [b]arcane spells[/b], not surceror or wizard spells. *shrug* Yes, there is. The rule of "later-published products often change that which was published beforehand". But that's just it - if [b]wizards[/b] don't need an example of a non-PHB spell to get it added to the spells they know and can prepare "as part of level up" ... [i]why can't sorcerors[/i] ... ? Clerics, druids, and other divine casters get [b]every[/b] spell available to them to select for preparation; why are sorcerors forced to pay money for a scroll, or the like? Doing so places an unfair burden on the sorceror. Eitehr [b]everyone[/b] should have to forkover the same sortof money, or [b]noone[/b] should. Irrelevant, because it does [b]not[/b] inevitably follow that any given player and/or GM will [b]purchase[/b] those books. And that's an unbelievably over-literalist reading of the rules - because you are [i]neglecting[/i] the inherent "this is an update to the PHB" [b]nature[/b] of supplemental rulebooks. [/QUOTE]
