[QUOTE="castro3nw, post: 3619412, member: 50268"] It also doesn't say you can ready a maneuver more than once. "Maneuvers readied" is how many different maneuvers you can ready at a time. "Spells prepared" is how many slots you have to fill with spells. Basically maneuvers are like light switches. They're either on or off. Spell slots are like boxes. You can put whatever you like in them. Ok. I've heard WRT attainable with just a couple feats several times. It's true. 2 feats, and WRT is yours once/encounter. What most people don't explain is that you also have to meet the initiator level requirement. A level 3 maneuver takes initiator level 5. With non-initiating classes building at 1/2 level, this is level 10 at the earliest. With the way feats are typically set up, Fighters can take it at 10, while nearly everyone else has to wait until their level 12 feat. If you take the 1 lvl dip in Warblade, first off it has to be before you take the Martial Study feat to gain WRT (super easy) and it likely cuts out the necessity of taking 2 feats, as you can pick up a White Raven maneuver as one of your initial ones. It also lowers the minimum level to 9. (1+.5x8) Sounds like a good deal if your build can handle a level of Warblade. Anyway, my point is that its not something that you can acquire very early on if you're starting from low level. And at those points, the mages are tossing 5th and 6th level spells... Is it that bad compared to some of them? [/QUOTE]
