Message: <blockquote data-quote="trix" data-source="post: 282415" data-attributes="member: 5337">A derivitave of Magic PointsI do a magic 'point' system like this:1) The number of spells you can cast per day is the same as the total number of spells you can cast.2) You can use any 'higher' spell slot as a lower spell of a type that you have currently memorised.3) You can use LVLx2 worth of lower 'spelllevels' to cast any higher spell and there is a temporary condrain.---8 1st level + 5 2nd level spells -> 1 9th level.A 9th can be used as a fireball if fireball is memorised, but not 3 fireballs.  This means that if he uses his last memorised fireball, s/he cant use that 9th level spell as a fireball because fireball has been used.---Justification:Its not too powerfull, since you're not converting points at a rate of 3fireballs per 1 9th level spell.Its flexible since you have that option in a tight spot.I still require mage's to memorise their spells.In addition, I give a mage an option to specialize in any non-plus-buff non-damage dealing spell every 4 levels @ 4 or more levels lower allowing them to cast it without memorising (they must spend a spell to cast it).(@ 5th level they can specialize in 1st level cantrip, @ 10th or 12th level they can specialize in fly, etc)-Tim---Edit : The player had to 'have' the spell 4 levels ago and be able to cast it 4 levels ago.So if the player is 10th (hasnt chosen what to specialize), then gets Fly, even though its a 3rd level spell, and he wouldve been able to cast it at 6th, he hasnt had the spell for 4 levels, so cant specialize in it.-Tim</blockquote>
