[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 2936481, member: 13966"] I never saw the original poster mention use of fractional saves. It's not like I failed to notice your comment, it just isn't automatically relevant. Nowhere near a majority of people use fractional BAB and saves. It most definitely cannot just be assumed when trying to balance feats, especially since it's not core. If you wanted to limit it to main spellcaster types in the first place, rather than multiclass characters or warriors or whatnot, then instead of requiring +10 Base Will Save you should require 'caster level 15+' or 'ability to cast 7th-level spells' or whatever. And, well, I'm not quite sure what the point of the feat is if it's really meant for mages and such, other than possibly being a mighty offensive ability for bards, who aren't really supposed to be offensive juggernaughts. Is it stands it's also available to monks, but then it would really make their high-level Quivering Palm ability seem pretty worthless. Wizards, sorcerers, clerics, and druids already have access to spells of instant death or mass destruction. While certainly that Instant Kill feat is superior in certain circumstances, I don't much see a need for it with casters as-is. Just saying. [/QUOTE]
