Message: <blockquote data-quote="seasong" data-source="post: 623440" data-attributes="member: 5137">Prereqs do continue to be a problem. I don't want it to be too difficult or too easy, but as you've both pointed out, it's simply too easy to min-max for lower levels. So here's the new prereqs:Base Will save +5 OR base Fort save +58 Skill Points Put Into HealSkill Focus: HealIron WillRoleplayingCapellan:It's not really a religious class, so much as it is a knowledge and duty class.Skills...Alchemy: The herbal effects, they can already do better. The rest of the skill fits poorly at best. Otherwise I would have included it.The other skills almost fit, but the black healer is more social-oriented and less wilderness oriented. What wilderness skills they have are those that She would have... animal empathy/handling and rope use aren't high on that list.The 1,080 HP in 8 hours: Yeah. The black healer changes the resting dynamic somewhat. However, I don't see this as any worse than Heal (theoretically infinite hit points in 6 seconds), and the time required makes it possible for the DM to layer encounters and do some damage anyway - at 1 HP per minute, the DM could give a medium-level party half an hour and still make 'em hurt.Technik4:Okay, yeah, I need to change it to Profession (Herbalist) and note that for the black healer, that includes physiology as a class trait.Cosmopolitan: <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> I'd let 'em have one (+2 skill) or the other (always a class skill) but not both in the same feat. And I sure wouldn't let it stack with Skill Focus (which is a prereq).Heal Skill/Ranks: I think you've persuaded me. I'll look at it again tomorrow morning.Regarding the 9th level wizard: Huh? A wizard can do avg 32 points of damage with a 9d6 fireball (level 3 spell, compared to "highest slot" of level 5), and if he's got a 20 INT (using your stat list), he can dedicate 4-5 slots and still have slots to spare. And while the fireball does offer a save... it doesn't require an attack roll.</blockquote>
