Brace: Big difference. Really, guys, that bonus gets added anyway, not an issue.
NilesB: Maybe you should read my previous posts. I don't care about TN's necromantic abilities at all, all I want TN for is the duel spellcasting. That's it, the rest is garnish.
If you're going to drop Cleric completely after 13th level, you might as well not take it at all. Much more efficient and far less headaches just being a single class wizard. Aside from that, i want to play an effective Cleric/Wizard, not a Wizard with a bit of cleric on the side or vise versa.
Also, I would rather have twice as many lower level spells than a few higher level spells. At Caster Level 16/16, Character Level 20, my build lets you cast a total of 5 8th level spells a day rather than a measily 2-3, not counting bonus spells for high Wis/Int. For that, I'll wait 5 levels (17-21) for the dubious advantage of 9th level spells. Heck, at 20th level i'll be able to buy a load of scrolls or pick 'em up in the loot, so I'll be casting them anyway!
Votan: But you don't get twice the casting ability and I don't want to play an armoured caster. And I don't care about Necromancy at all, as I've said, I just want TN for the duel caster level progression, like I have said.
I won't be answering any more questions about the build. That's the build, not changing it. If you have feat suggestions, I'll field those. Should be playing soon anyway.
