[QUOTE="irdeggman, post: 3765425, member: 16285"] First off never let a player use a prestige class (or non-core feat or spell) that you do not know. Second - the artificer is an Eberron specific class. If you are not using that setting (or at least Action Points) don't allow it. The class is inherently dependent on Action Points. It also has to make a UMD everytime it uses an item (and since it casts spells from items that is pretty much all the time). I know of no way (shy of epic feats) to get a 9th level spell in a wand let alone more than 50 charges. The class does get a clas ability to add in metamagic feats to the spells cast out of wands by using up more charges. Next never allow in psionics unless you are familiar with the system. Psions do not have wands they have djores (crystal type things but not wands). The metamagic spell feats do not apply to psionics. Also a psion can only apply 1 metamagic feat at a time since it uses up his psionic focus. They can, however "augment" their powers when manifesting them. This can add to the DC - but as far as I know you can't augment a power manifested from a djore. And they can't spend more pp on a power than they have manifester levels, unless they use the Overchannel feat (and then they take hit point damage unless they also have the Talented feat. Obviously the next thing to make sure you do, especially when running higher level PCs. Make sure you understand and "agree" with everything on their sheets. [/QUOTE]
