However, if you do want it, or are just getting into the arcana evolved, I recommened getting the new book over the old. The ritual warrior alone is a very nice addition to the game.Just a few examples. Quicken Spell is seriously powerful in AE, allowing you to quicken your highest level slots. It is possible for a 10th level magister to throw 2 10d8 (so 20d8 in total, or an average of 90 damage) area blasts at a party in a single round, making it quite possible to kill the weaker members of your party even if they make their reflex saves. Its even possible with another feat to do 25d8 in one round.Ghost Weapon is a 5th level spell that lasts 1 round/level. It allows a fighters weapon to ignore armor AND natural armor, meaning any fighter type with power attack can mow through virtually any tank opponent. You can carve up dragons like turkeys with this spell, it is brilliant energy on crack.These are extreme examples, as I mentioned before I like most of the AE feats and spells a lot more than 3.5. But every so often I find a spell or ability I consider a little over the top.</blockquote>
