[QUOTE="arwink, post: 738906, member: 2292"] This logic still befuddles me. I'm a Prestige Class loving Dm (although add me to the list of people who side with megamania's DM, it's his call whether to exclude them from his game). I include dozens in my games. I buy books to get my hands on prestige classes. I modify them and create my own to flesh out my NPC's and organizations within the context of my game. If a player wants a PrC, all they have to do is ask and I'll work it into the game. Since the advent of 3e, I've seen two Prestige classes taken in my games. One of those was for a very short lived Cohort. For the most part, my players aren't all that interested in Prestige Classes. They look at those on offer and say "Sure, it lets me do x and x and x, but look at what I'm giving up. I'd rather have that extra rage, new feat or added level of spell power." Those that have taken the Prestige classes have borne out this logic. They truly rocked the house when they dealt with things they were tailored for, but there were always moments when they regreted what they'd given up. [/QUOTE]
