[QUOTE="Velenne, post: 21382, member: 1856"] Ah yes, more good input!! 1.) Knowledge Planes was originally something I had because the of the concept of a sorceror who has studied the nature of the world around him so extensively. But, no, I hadn't ever thought of Knowledge: Mathematics and I should change that. Good idea! 2.) With the 3 feat prereq it's already got on it, I think the minimum ranks in those knowledge skills should fit the bill. Sorcerors only get 2 + INT at each level (same with this PrC), and will continually be required to spend 2 of those in a knowledge skill every level of the PrC as well. 3.) "Initially conjuring the sphere costs a number of spell levels equal to the metamagic feat’s level adjustment", so the "Scion of the Sphere" ability can be used as long as the Alyssarhi has spell levels to keep conjuring it. Also keep in mind that most high level encounters are decided merely by who wins initiative (or worse, who has surprise). So if the Alyssarhi wishes to spend one of those precious partial actions bringing up a Sphere of Sculpt Spell, it's just one less defensive spell or offensive spell he could have used to save himself from his opponent. Also, until 5th level of the PrC, he can only have 1 Sphere OR 1 Globe operating at any one time. At 5th, that only goes up to 2 at a time (1 sphere and 1 globe, or 2 spheres, or 2 globes) 4.) When I get home, I'll count up the number of spell levels a Sorceror with 18 CHA will have at 19th level (the earliest a character could reach 10th level of the PrC) and see if it's less than, greater than, or comparable to the number of powers per day a Psion could use at 19th level. (I'm a school right now so I don't have that with me.) Ideally, I hope it will be comparable to the Psion because that's the idea of the PrC. Keep em coming! This is all very very useful and I hope will make this truly a PrC to remember! [/QUOTE]
