[QUOTE="DemonLoki, post: 5352693, member: 78024"] I am interested in the Rainbow Servent PrC to add some flexibility and utility to my WarMage build, however I have run into a wall. According to Complete Divine at 10th level the Rainbow Servent gains "Cleric Spell Access" The ability is defined as such: Cleric Spell Access A 10th-level rainbow servant can learn and cast spells from the cleric list, even if they don't appear on the lists of any spellcasting class he has. Such spells are cast as divine spells if they don't appear on the sorcerer/wizard or bard spell lists. This class feature grants access to the spells, but not extra spells per day. The 10th-level rainbow servant can likewise read scrolls. Now this is where I would like everyones opinion on some clarifications. From reading other forums and what people have posted, most people take Rainbow Servant with a spontaneous caster like Beguiler/Warmage etc and have access to spontaneously cast any Cleric spell. My friends argue that a Warmage doesn't immediately get access to these spells, just the ability to 'learn' them for future casting, like with Advanced Learning. The other issue is the confusion with the text and table when it comes to spell casting progression. The table infers a loss of 4 levels over the course of the 10 level PrC, whereas the text states you gain a level EACH level with no loss of 4 levels. I've read that RAW wins, so text over table and to go with the rules as they were written... but what do you guys think? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated [/QUOTE]
