Second, at this low level I am hesitant to go outside my craft reserve, so I actually had several points left when we leveled. You never know what you might need them for. (Being able to craft a scroll with a spell none of the casters in your party has access to makes you hold back a bit.Third, the amount of craft reserve/XP you spend on magical items very character specific. Casters interested in crafting will go for the crafting feats, while those not interested will go for the metamagic feats, and have a bunch of 'craft reserve' they will probably never use.To balance out, you could include some kind of craft reserve in the item creation feats.(Example: when you take 'scribe scroll', you get enough Craft Reserve per level to create 5(?) scrolls of the maximum level you can cast at that lvl)As a bonus, you could introduce a 'Craft Reserve' Feat to increase that amount.Herzog</blockquote>
