My belief is that PrCs either are more powerful than classes in narrowly defined niches or act as patches that allow for viable multiclassing of two classes (such as the MT). A PrC that focuses on turning / killing undead should be notably more powerful than a pure non-PrC classed character in turning / killing undead. But this comes (or rather should come) at the cost of being less able in non-undead turning / killing situations. Or perhaps the PrC focuses on light melee weapon combat. But if they have to wear heavier than Light armor or wield non-finesseable weapons, then they should be subpar. They are the exemplars of their narrowly defined niches only. Thus PrCs for each type of specialist wizard really works well for me as an idea. So too does a PrC that focuses on dealing with a particular type of creature, combat setting (such as fighting on a ship at sea or in the rough terrain of the mountains or in the dense underbrush of deep forest), etc.</blockquote>
