My intent is to have spells per day a different feature than spells known. As such, when taking a Gestalt spellslinger, you could either get a higher Caster Level {CL} or learn higher level spells.  I use TEoM, so it will simply be a matter of tracking two seperate CL's, one for gaining MP and another 'Effective CL' for max MP and spell lists known. A caster-mundane build would have the choice of increasing one or the other each level . A caster-caster build would increase in both.  TEoM makes the integration of differeing casters alot easier.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I dont think prestige classes on top of this mechanic would be that much different. Of course, the MT and EK types are excluded, and with TEOM others, such as Arcane Archer, can be disposed with. The ones remaining as desireable in a players mind will be the ones with special abilities like HiPS or the DeepWood Sniper's increased threat ranges. I don't think it would be a gamestopper to declare the majority of prestige classes as out and create specialized feats for an ability that a player wants to emulate. An example would be the HiPS, turn that into a feat that can be taken only by a Gestalt with a certain amount of hide and capability to cast illusion spells...The part that I am worrying about is that I use E-Tools to automate my character generation.. I will basically have to custom build each players class choice in the system as they level up. Oh well, the price I pay for automation!</blockquote>
