05-19-06, 01:21 PM I have a warmage 4, rogue 1, looking forward to arcane trickster.

If u are still reading I thank you, on the run I realiced what a strange, hard, and not useful(a pretty way to say useless :P ) combination that is, but the decisions are made, and I have to keep up with it.

the feats are:
1- empower spell, weapopn finesse
3- practiced caster

The point is that I requiere the 0-level spell Mage hand to meet the prerequisites, and I was looking for some help on how to get it.

The only alowed books are the three core, and the first four completes.

By the way, if anyone has a beter Idea for a prestige, or any other way to improve this character, I'm on for it.

05-19-06, 01:54 PM The variant for Warmage in PHBII lets you chose spells outside of Evocation for your advanced learning, but they don't come as often I believe. (Levels 3 6 11 and 16). Seems like kind of a waste considering it's meant to let a Warmage gain some utility, but it could help your purpose as well.

05-19-06, 02:58 PM There's a feat in Complete Arcane that gives you Mage Hand as a spell-like ability 1/day if I'm not mistaken. I think that'd allow you to meet the requirement. Also I believe the PHB2 variant Warmage ability lets you take an arcane spell from any school, but only a spell 2 levels lower than the highest spell level you can cast, and I think you can choose it instead of Advanced Learning.

Edit: Ok, the variant ability actually lets you take a spell from any school (instead of just one school like Advanced Learning) but the spell takes up a slot one higher than normal, so your Mage Hand spell would be 1st-level instead of 0-level if you used this method.
