I have an idea for this version of mage that can only cast spells that either deal damage, directly increase the damage dealt, paralyze, or dehabilitate an enemy, but they can cast from EVERY spell list's damage dealing resources. What should their spell progression be? I was thinking a sorcerer's spells/day+spontaneous, and wizard's way of learning. Is it over the top?

Suggestions appreciated extremely!

Use Complete Arcane's warmage. It's quite similar to what you are proposing.

Argh! If you look, please tell me what you think! :ayyyy!:Maybe I should make it a PrC that specializes in force effects that deal damage, pick you up, or make you slam into stuff? :eek: :gah: that would be fun to play! Should I do it? :rofl:
Blaster :mage::"I can give you wings!"
Stupid Evil Passerby:"Really? Show me! I want to fly!"
:schemes::smirk: (Blaster :mage: uses special spell I haven't worked out yet and hurles the idiot 150 feet into the air and does it again when he reaches the top of his ascension and then casts an amplify gravity effect to make him fall harder)
Blaster :mage:: "Hooha! Yet another villain wannabe slaughtered in a hilariously wasteful manner! Why use one spell when you can use three? :rofl:"
:OMG!
I could give him an ability similar to a force :dragon:'s breath weapon! schweet! Tell me what you think, or I will make you fly!
Heehee! I love smilies! (wow. I exceeded the image limit.)
Thanks for pointing that out, Vanigo. I'm a noob at message boards and just about any online interactions wither people.

I think you bump too much. It's generally considered bad form to bump something unless it's been at least a day or so since the last post, and definetly not if it's still on the first page (on the more active forums).

grrr.responses help, even if you just agree with jsaving. fifty-odd people look, and two people answer, one of which informs of the fact that I probably bump too much(Vanigo) and he should go check out my other threads if he wants to see more bumps than days I've been registered to post, and the other offers a bit of information that would be ever so much more helpful if I had Complete Arcane. I'm not really complaining, except that this is moderately irritaing that I've posted more on this thread than anyone else. My bloody 'Why should I use shuriken?' thread got more of a response! Just give me your opinion!

Warmage is also in, IIRC, the Miniatures Handbook.
