[QUOTE="Wik, post: 5949286, member: 40177"] My all-time favourite class is the spellthief - which happens to be one of the "weakest" classes in the game. Experience has told me that when the class is in its ideal element, it is a lot of fun and not "overpowered", but when it is in a situation where the stealing spell/innate abilities isn't an option, it is basically a useless class. So, the question is, how to do the spellthief in pathfinder? I realize there are some current options (such as the sandman) that exist, and if someone can point me towards RAW builds that approximate the spellthief, that'd be dandy. But if your GM said to you, "Wik, you can make up your own class that is based off the spellthief", how would you do it? Keep in mind that the thing that makes the class so much fun to play is the ability to steal spells and spell-like abilities. Stealing a random spell and then trying to find the best use of it is a lot of fun for people that like to think on their feet and look for creative solutions - it's what I love about the class.
