Why can't PRC's do the opposite? Maybe that's why they touch a nerve.

[QUOTE="Jefe Bergenstein, post: 3432448, member: 31506"] Again, like what? A guy who can do everything and rocks at it? Without a tradeoff of power? The reason you arent seeing these is ebcause it would be widely considered broken. The Chameleon lets you fill different roles. So does the Master of Masks. Binder and Incarnate prc's expand versatility as well. Even hybrid classes like mystic theurge, arcane trickster, etc expand a character's ability to fill multiple roles at the same time (more effectively than standard MC'sing). The fochlurian lyricist also gives you a ton of spells, skills, etc. The trade off is you lose raw power for versatility. And since these classes can do a bit of everything, there isnt a need for many of them. You generally dont need one PRC for a guy who can fight, cast spells and sneak, and another for a guy who can sneak, cast spells, and fight. About the only thing thats missing is something that lets you swap your ranger favored enemy on the fly, or some sort of fighter that lets weapon spec/focus/improved crit work on any weapon he wields.
