[QUOTE="Liquidsabre, post: 1682044, member: 15635"] Alright buddy the kiddie gloves come off... And YOU continually make the [B]assumption[/B] that SH removes the limitation set by AD. *shruggs* It's really no concern to me any longer now that others in the thread have already been helped. All of my argument is already up there, if you disagree FINE. Live life, have many babies, and enjoy yourself. But I'm pretty sure more people would agree with my interpretation over YOURS, so :mad: Except where the AD feat [B]specifically[/B] states where it changes said rule with the TEXT: "Add the chosen domain spells to your class list of arcane spells." Phew, are you trying to miss text laid out right in front of you here on purpose? I don't think anyone who misses things that are right THERE in the text should be able to argue the RAW. Come back only after you have read the text before trying to "argue" or make "points". Trust me, it helps. Correct, feats modifiy what is possible, as [B]stated[/B] in their TEXT. But as we've seen, you appear to have problems with this. Actually, I have but as has been proven, you are in FACT bliiiinnnnddd. Glasses perhaps? Which is apparently ALL ya got for an argument.
