[QUOTE="Felon, post: 2440448, member: 8158"] The notion of having an FR-oriented PrC is not mutually exclusive with the idea of having a class that has general utility. The archmage and hierophant were originally FR classes. The incantatrix is another good example, as were the hordebreaker, giant-killer, and peerless archer from the Silver Marches setting. They got real, honest-to-gosh abilities, and represented specific roles in Faerun. Giant-killers are an appropriate PrC for the Silver Marchers [B]and[/B] many other places in Faerun. Waterdeep just came out, and there's not a PrC in it I can see being useful for players, and I have no idea why I would use them for NPC's since I can more easily create a grey hand or Moonstar agent using multi-classes or even PrC's from "generic" books like Complete Adventurer.
