[QUOTE="youspoonybard, post: 1710375, member: 12242"] Yes, I just posted this on the wizard.com boards, but I figured I need all the help I can get : ) I want to make a new feat, well, actually, "replace" an old feat. Combat Casting. I hate it. I told my DM, and he suggested that I offer a different version of it. After thinking about it, I ran the idea of allowing a caster to repace an attack during a full attack with a touch spell. These are the limitations on it - Once per round only. Only can cast and attempt to touch with a touch spell. No other types of spells. Need a free hand (no shield, but bucklers are ok). Requires a concentration check DC 15 + 2 x spell level, or the spell fizzles. No AoO either way (or perhaps if the caster doesn't beat a DC 15 + spell level Concentration check, he does provoke. That might be interesting). Moreover, you take a penalty on this Concentration check equal to the penalty you'd get on the attack you're replacing (ie if you substitute the first attack, you get a -0 penalty; the second attack, a -5 penalty, and so on). Any penalties from flurry, TWF and other effects that allow multiple attacks would be added to the Concentration penalty. Prereqs BAB +6, ability to cast X level spells. 1) How does the general idea of the feat look? Balance? 2) Can someone help me word this correctly? I'm not looking for loopholes, I'm looking to make a balanced, correctly worded feat, and I don't want to screw anything up. Thanks ahead of time for your input! [/QUOTE]
