[QUOTE="Emperor Valerian, post: 1949423, member: 15043"] I really really like the idea of army buffs at the higher levels... never considered that. I think I'll try to put that into remaking this thing. Hmm... The weather part is part of the flavor of this class (the major character its based on used this often... it was part of the reason he was held in awe), so it needs to be present somewhere. Perhaps instead of two groups, just one feat, around 4th level, that grants him use of [i]Control Weather[/i] x/day. A true wizard could get this as a 7th level spell around 13th level, so that would be about right. I'd also like to keep the tactician feat, as a part of the "buffing others" kind of theme of the class. Should that be moved to the second level of the PrC? So let's say the Armor of Fortune is completely struck away, and the first Bend to Your Will is moved to first level. I'd like to have at least two layers of "Bend to Your Will," with the second granting some kind of clairvoyance, as the characters this is based on tended to be able to predict their opponents moves with uncanny ease. I'm not sure how to quite grant it... maybe something that changes the knowledge of a scry attempt to automatically "firsthand?" Mass buffs and benefits at hte higher levels of the PrC... check. The extra elemental damage, ancestral terra cotta armies, and the legion spell sounds like excellent candidates. Maybe something like calling on ancestral spirits to gain insight (insight bonus to attacks for allies), or some fear based spells against opposing forces... hmm. Back to the drawing board. [/QUOTE]
