If you do not meet the prerequisites of a prestige class you can't take levels in that class, you don't lose abilities from levels already gained.And actually according to the 3.5SRD:The rules are even more lenient stating that you only need to meet the Requirements to take the first level of the Prestige Class. I personally would not allow a player to take ANY level of a prestige class if they don't meet the Requirements, but I geuss that's my houserule. Even with my houserule, after the PC takes their 10th level of DD and no longer meets the Reqs, there is no paradox because they have no more levels to take anyway.Back on topic:1E - Psionics. 'Nuff said.2E - Kits. The power levels of various kits were extremely arbitrary and seemed to have no designer guidelines on how to balance them (see any kit in the Dwarf book vs. any kit in the Cleric book) with the sole exception being the Complete Bard's Handbook (they actually went into the structure of how they designed the kits in that book).3E - Prestige Classes. See Kits above.4E - Rogue weapons. I think they arbitrarily decided to limit the rogue too much in this regard. They are the only class that has powers that can't be used without a specific set of weapons. Even implement users can still use their powers without the limited implements they can use. Why stifle the Rogue so much?</blockquote>
