[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 2102631, member: 2209"] I think the idea in designing prcs is that they should not be better than a core class in absolutely every way without any detriments. There should be something given up, for instance if they are more potent magically then they should be weaker in fighting, or if more competent physically then perhaps lose a level of spell casting (like an eldritch knight does) or skill points. Even wizard prcs give up familiar advancement for their benefits. Going fully 20 levels in a core class is not supposed to be a power sacrifice. From the lore and magic focus in the description I would have expected the BAB to be dropped to 1/2 as they do not seem as swashbucklerly aggressively offensive as a normal bard would be. Not a big deal to me though, this is the bard class we are talking about. I just wanted to know if I was missing something obvious. And you did ask for questions and comments :) . [/QUOTE]
