[QUOTE="bruin, post: 965137, member: 12587"] So that's for spells known, rather than spells per day? Based on the examples from the book I thought it was spells per day that receive the bonus. For example, on p. 50 (describing sorcerers): "[B]The number of spells he can cast per day [/B] is improved by his bonus spells, if any. For instance, at 1st level, the sorcerer Hennet can cast four 1st level spells per day--three for being 1st level ... plus one thanks to his High Charisma. However, [B]he only knows two 1st-level spells[/B] ..." 2 Spells known being the standard for anyone, High Charisma or no. If the bonus applied to spells known rather than SPD, the sorcerer in the example would know 3 1st level spells, rather than two, but only able cast 3 per day, rather than 4, as discussed in that passage. What am I missing? According to this, batchie's sorceror should have extra SPD but only know the standard number of spells listed in the the table on p. 49 for a second level sorceror. When he finally gains enough levels to know 2nd and 3rd level spells, then he can take advantage of the bonus SPD. Did they change this at some point? Is it meant to apply to both? So confused :( You guys need to be patient with me, as I don't understand all this yet.:confused: [/QUOTE]
