02-17-07, 12:25 AM I'm asking for the purposes of the Abjurant Champion's 5th level ability, which states that their CL becomes equal to their BAB unless it would otherwise be higher.

Divine Power raises BAB (and thus CL) to your level--so while you wouldn't get higher level spells known, you'd be casting the ones you had as though you never multiclassed. The downside is that getting it onto a Wizard list would require taking a feat (Arcane Disciple). That's not a bad option in and of itself, since the War domain's granted power gives you the necessary Martial proficiency for Abj Champ, but are there any other ways to get the same effect?

It's two levels higher, takes away your spellcasting ability and requires a magic item to cast, but hey, welcome to the exciting world of Clerics pwning Wizards.

02-17-07, 02:28 AM Divine Power really is your best option since, as mentioned by Soltares, Tenser's Transformation is one of the dodgiest spells a wizard can cast...

I'd reccommend combining Divine Power with Incantatrix for a high BAB all day long (Metamagic effect persistent spell) - especially since, otherwise, Arcane Disciple will only allow you to cast it once per day...

Actually, to be honest, I'd reccommend metamagic effect for more or less any arcane buffing build, since it's just such an awesome ability.
