[QUOTE="Andion Isurand, post: 913106, member: 10062"] Note: Many of the PrCs that provide a cool (substantial) class ability at every level, have only ( 2 +int ) skill points per level. ******************************* As for the Instant Metamagic ability proposed by yennico in his lastest modified version... does the work of three epic feats Auto-Silent Spell... which must be taken three times once for spells up to 3rd level twice for spells up to 6rd level a third time, for spells up to 9rd level I can clearly see that this ability alone is clearly overpowered. My red pen would be out in an instant to remove it. If you want to create a relatively more balanced Silent Spell class ability, check out the following: the Arcane Devotee PrC (enlarge spell) the Harper Mage PrC (extend spell) the War Wizard PrC (widen spell) In addition, since all these abilities are limited in thier use by the character's charisma score (usable 1 + charisma 'Bonus' times per day), a few more people will consider bringing a rogue/sorcerer into the Arcane Trickster PrC. ***************************** Also, if you want the Arcane Trickster to be allowed to take a 10 on a skill check... use the already existing mechanic of a Special Ability as described in the core Rogue class. Try offering one or two of these abilities throughout the PrC levels, replacing the bonus metamagic feat you gave the class with one as well. (And remember, you can choose any feat or Improved Evasion as one of your special abilities, in addition to the 10 on skill or one from a couple other things.) ***************************** [/QUOTE]
