Frozeman 11-08-07, 04:30 AM	The artificer class from the eberron setting has a number of infusions with a long casting time, and a provision for action points to speed things up, has anyone tried using artificers in a setting without APs? Are there any rules to make provisions for this, or if not, what have you done to deal with this? Thanks.

YMMV That sounds like it favors the Artificer - you're giving it a benefit (access to APs) that no other class will have. If you go that route, I suggest you take something away from the Artificer in return. It is one of the strongest classes in the game, and doesn't need a power boost.
