[QUOTE="Corlon, post: 644387, member: 6905"] hmm, all that looks cool except for smite magi... I don't really like that for some reason. Plus why just arcane spells, you should be able to hit divine people too, even if some don't. How about instead of smite, they get anit-magic channeling(1, 2, 3, and 4) abilities, letting them counter with dispel with attacks of opportunity, shaping anti-magic fields, etc. all at different levels. Making a table that the mage could choose from could make the class more flexible. Here's one. [B]Improved Counterspelling:[/B] prereqs: none benefit: Once per round, the Anti-Magic Mage can counter a spell as normal, but by using up an attack of opportunity instead of having to ready an action. The mage may not ready an action [I]and[/I] use this ability in a round. [B]Counterspelling Mastery[/B] prereqs: Improved Counterspelling benefit: as Improved Counterspelling except the Anti-Magic Mage can counter a number of spells equal to 1+ 1/2 his anti-magic mage levels (as long as he has that many attacks of opportunity.) [B]Anti-Magic Placement[/B] prereqs:none benefit: The range of anti magic field becomes touch and no longer personal. The spell can now be placed on objects or other creatures (will save for involuntary). [B]Improved Anti-Magic Placement[/B] prereqs: Anti-Magic Placement benefit: As Anti-Magic Placement, except that the range is now close. [B]Anti-Magic Placement Mastery[/B] prereqs: Improved Anti-Magic Placement benefit: Range is now medium [B]Anti-Magic Shaping[/B] prereqs: none benefit: The mage can remove squares of the anti-magic field at the time of the casting, and these stay the same throughout the entire casting. [B]Improved Anti-Magic Shaping[/B] prereqs: Anti-Magic Shaping benefit: The mage can now shape the field in any way he wishes as long as the number of squares taken up isn't bigger than normally allowed. and come to think of it, how about the only thing the mage gets is spell resistance, and then one ability every level. ideaz, comments, criticism?
