Venkier 01-02-06, 11:01 PM	So I've always had a notion to make and PLAY a top notch Abjurer~ and I've recently become enamoured with trying to make the most out of getting into this PrC. I tried doing a few google searches to find builds in existance utilizing this class, but haven't turned up anything overly impressive (a Vanilla Wiz 9/IotSV 7/Archmage 4) seems to be about the gist of it... Which would work well enough, sure enough~ but I just can't help but think that there is something useful/bennificial that could be dipped into suring the 9 level wait for IotSV... anyone have some suggestions? I'm on the lookout for dips that wouldn't delay getting into IotSV AND would provide an interesting ability or two. Some kind of synergistic and/or thematic approach even if at all possible. I considered Red Wizard of They (as I run and play in FR)... but with the feat requirements I couldn't pull it off without delaying IotSV :( I've never really been a big fan of the Incantatrix, and If at all possible I'd like to explore possibilities that don't utilize it :-P So... anyone have any suggestions for me? :)

Replace fatespinner with Spellguard of Silverymoon if you're not worried about the roleplaying requirements and you were going to get 2 metamagic feats anyway (level 2 gives a free metamagic feat but the class needs Combat Casting.) Sacred Exorcist could also be good as a dip.

Wizard 5/Incantatrix 4/Initiate of the Sevenfold Veil 7/SOMETHING 4 This gives you one (maybe two, don't have my books here) metamagic feats and, more importantly, metamagic effect - quite possibly one of the most powerful effects around, in my opinon... Versistile too... combine it with Extra Spell or Arcane Disciple (War), and you too can walk around with a Cleric's BAB... Better yet, combine it with some domain (I can't think of any) that grants Divine Favour and Divine Power, and you can get your Cleric BAB AND +3 to hit/to damage... Not to mention Incantatrix and Initiate sort of fits thematically as well (Both of them being abjurery types... and yes, abjurery is not a real word) Plus once you start swinging about 9th level spells, you can Perist Shapechange on yourself, for free shapechanging ALL DAY LONG. As a side note, can someone confirm something for me, as I'm at work for the next 6 hours and don't have my books... In the Complete Arcane, there is a feat that gives you one extra spell per level as a Wizard... Arcane Schooling I think it's called... In Races of the Wild, being an Elf Wizard grants you much the same ability... Can these two things stack? Can a Elf Wizard with Arcane schooling gain 4 new spells each time he gains a level? (It would be rather nasty if he could)...
