[QUOTE="Felix, post: 3241284, member: 3929"] TANSTAAFL? You had an argument until this ad hominem. Too bad. I'll just go off and enjoy my heroin because I'm an addict and don't know what's good for me, shall I? Nonsense. Spellcasting PrCs that give up more than 3 casting levels will miss those 9th level spells when they tangle with their base-class opponent. Archer PrC's still have to deal with [url=http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/theraven_stephenh/combat/SUNDER.html]this.[/url] Melee PrCs still have similar weaknesses to base-class meleers: relatively weaker ranged attacks and Will saves. Gish PrCs attempt to combine low-HP and low-BAB classes with melee, with more and less success. But to say, "Most PrCs are laughably overpowered" is either ignoring weaknesses that specialization presents or defining "overpowered" as "slightly more effective in his ballywick". If you sincerely believe that PrCs are overpowered to the extent they ruin games (which is how I would define "overpowered"), then please define overpowered to your satisfaction or support your claim.
