[QUOTE="Technik4, post: 406860, member: 7211"] Well, they certainly can take them. However, its a balance right? I mean, you assume that if you take item creation feats, youll be spending exp and gold, to presumably customize your own items and save gold. So, if a sorceror (who doesn't get bonus feats, for the express purpose of taking item creation feats) does take item creation feats, he's still ahead of any "versatile" wizard as the wizard must maintain more than 2 spells/level to stay versatile. So: A) Sorc decides to forgo item creation feats, he doesnt lose exp for making them, and has the gold to stay at the same "power" as an enemy wizard. B) Sorc spends a feat to make items, in doing so gives up the same amount of exp as a wizard would, but this pushes his gold advantage even higher. However, this does not take into account the need for sorcerors to buy scrolls to augment their spell repotoire in order to be as "effective". In conclusion, I think the phb versions are balanced, as long as the power of a pc is based (at least to some significant percent)on his wealth and items. Technik [/QUOTE]
