I don't think it's different from wanting to keep fighter BAB even though you left that class.YMMV but I think its simply a power up for those who don't like their choices. The pure wizard has to keep some advantages. With all the extra classes giving out spellcasting etc.... I don't think they were hard done by to have a lower caster level. Yes there are other elements concerned beyond caster level but I don't see why someone who hasn't studied like a pure caster should cast like one. An aberration for a particular encounter - not a problem. A change to sweeten paths, already taken they because had their own benefits, is just power creep. It hurts the game because it reduces variety and makes player choice less important.But of course that would only be a ruling in my game world. I've certainly said my piece, Good luck whatever you decide.Sigurd</blockquote>
