[QUOTE="Chun-tzu, post: 818067, member: 1441"] Gez: Look up. ! did it first in this thread. :cool: Bret's right, about a couple things. You can build a 16th level Calish[i][/i]ite fire Sorcerer like this: [u]Sorcerer 1[/u] Feats: Empower Spell, Bloodline of Fire Skills: Knowledge: Arcana 4 ranks, Knowledge: The Planes 2 ranks Notes: Empower Spell is useless at 1st level, since even an empowered cantrip is a 2nd-level spell. But it's perfectly legal, needed as a prereq for Cooperative Spell, and the best metamagic feat for a fire mage. [u]Sorcerer 3[/u] Feats: Cooperative Spell. Skills: Continue maxing out Knowledge Arcana (6 ranks) and the Planes (3 ranks). Notes: Cooperative Spell is needed to get Mage of the Arcane Order. [u]Sorcerer 5[/u] Skills: Knowledge: Arcana 8 ranks, Knowledge: The Planes 4 ranks. Notes: All prerequisites met for Mage of the Arcane Order. [u]Sorcerer 5/Mage of the Arcane Order 1[/u] Feats: Energy Substitution: Fire Skills: Knowledge: The Planes 8 ranks Spells: You need to have 3 fire spells and 1 summon spell to qualify for Elemental Savant. Notes: To gain the 4 ranks in Knowledge: The Planes, you need an Int of 14+. From here, you take 10 levels of Elemental Savant. You only gain 3 more feats, so you still have to choose from: Calish[i][/i]ite Elementalist Genie Lore Spell Thematics Spell Focus: Evocation, Greater Spell Focus: Evocation Spell Penetration, Greater Spell Penetration All in all, a pretty good fire mage. But not the best. A min-maxed Thayan Red Wizard Evoker who takes the Red Wizard prestige class is going to have more potent fire magics (Spell Power +5). Throw in Spellcasting Prodigy and aim for the Archmage. [/QUOTE]
