[QUOTE="Beholder Bob, post: 1704873, member: 12866"] Currently you have 2 options for spell casting. Either 7 level max, or 9th level max. My suggestion was 2 fold - 1st: that all progressions include 9th level spells. You realize that a priest whose primary devotion is to war is incapable of casting the war spells a priest whose primary devotion is to knowledge? I know you wish to reign in the power to offset the martial prowess, but preventing the war priest from casting war spells as well as the knowledge priest loses out on flavor. 2nd: that you could have 3 degrees of spell proficiency instead of 2 currently: poor caster (max 7th), good caster (max 9th) suggested: [COLOR=DarkOrange]poor caster:[/COLOR] allow them to cast as a cleric but w no domain bonus spell and an additional -1 spell per day for each spell level. At 18th level, they cast 1 less 0th, 1st,.....9th level spell, plus do not have domain spells (or 19 less spells a day then a good caster). [COLOR=DarkOrange]medium caster: [/COLOR] allow them to cast as a cleric but w no domain spell. They cast. At 18th level, they cast 1 less 1st, 2nd,...9th level spell (or 9 less spells a day then a good caster). [COLOR=DarkOrange]good caster:[/COLOR] allow them to cast as a cleric, including a bonus spell for domains at each level (1st-9th). The added flexibility shouldn't complicate things too much - only good casters get domain spells, only poor casters suffer -1 spell/level, but it highlights the difference between casters but still allows war and destruction to cast the 8th & 9th level spells that fit those domains so well.
