[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1670576, member: 478"] No biggies, just minor stuff (like bull's strength duration listed wrong). I'm actually not so sure, that it is [i]that[/i] powerful. I mean there are huge requirements, huge disadvantages and every single abilities further adds to those with huge costs. The benefits are mostly... nice, but hardly overpowering, especially coupled with those huge and plenty hindrances (which are even worse for a sorcerer, btw). This class surely isn't a killer in combat... it will be more like... Combat!? You handle that! Me and my 12 hit points stay faaaaar behind! I must admit, I'd prefer to just kick psionics out the door, but I don't want to force my opinions on the rest of you. ;) However, I don't think I'd want to play an arcane caster in a campaign with psionics, so I'd have to find something else then (maybe a psion, actually, so people can't accuse me of not having tested them anymore, when I say, that they are highly overpowered... :p). As I said, if anyone (who doesn't have the PGtF themselves) wants to have something from these books, just list it, and I can fill you in with the updates. Otherwise there is a lot of stuff that simply doesn't fit well with 3.5. Yeah, that's a problem with multiple cohorts. ;) I'd probably want it for followers mostly, if it isn't needed, I would not take it then, but it certainly makes sense. :) My initial idea was a Sorcerer 6 / Incantatrix 4 / Endless 2 or Wizard 5 / Incantatrix 5 / Endless 2. The new metamagic abilities of the Incantatrix would work very well in combination with the Endless, I think. One problem there would be, that the Incantatrix gets a pretty useful ability at 5th, which requires the character to have a craft item feat (Wand or Staff); and of course, that you only know the old (3.0) Incantatrix. ;) Well... with the XPH this "problem" doesn't really matter, anyways.
