[QUOTE="Bront, post: 3485065, member: 19696"] Question #1... Can you use Eldritch Crafter to craft Psionic items? Question #2... Some of these abilities can be replicated with a feat. What is it about this class that makes me want to take it as a magical crafter? How about as a non-magical crafter? I don't see the appeal of this class. It weakens any adventuring casters who aim to craft items, it weakens any non-casters who craft normal items till 5th level, when the can craft magical items, but they'll have to have put 13 + skill points into use magical item, AND waste a feat on Skill Focus: Craft. Right now, I think the class is not only weak, but unappealing. Ways to fix? Give it it's own caster progression and a small spell list. You could do something like spells that are used in item inbuing as a list, only casting a few per day, but access to up to 5th level spells (or maybe only 3rd, but some spells that are normaly higher level). Spells like magic weapon, greater magic weapon, magic vestment, your stat boosters, etc. Specificly here's the idea: [code] Level 1 2 3 1 1 - - 2 2 0*- 3 2 1 - 4 3 2 0* 5 4 2 1 *May only cast spells if INT is high enough. Casting is based off of INT for bonus spells and Saves. Spells are spontaniously cast from the Master Crafter List[/code] Just a few spell ideas L1 Magic Weapon Magic Vestment Mage Armor Longstrider L2 Bear's Endurance Bull's Strength Cat's Grace Eagle's Splendor Fox's Cunning Owl's Wisdom L3 Greater Magic Weapon Flame Arrow Stoneskin I wouldn't go nuts with the list, but making it useful, and enchantment/item themed might be good.
