02-17-05, 05:35 PM I'm building a Silvanesti Elf wizard and I was wondering what a good build/PrC would be good for my character. My Stats are as follows:
starting at LvL 1
str 8
dex 14
con 12
int 20
wis 12
cha 10

I really want to take spellcasting prodigy so my DC will be higher. I have just about all the books (except Exalted Deeds). I was thinking of taking warmage PrC (dragonlance i think) to up my damage but im not sure what else to take. I would really appreciate any input.

02-17-05, 06:32 PM Spellcasting prodigy does not increase DCs in 3.5. It just gives extra spell slots.

02-17-05, 08:23 PM I'm pretty sure i am going to be able to use the previous version of Spellcasting prodigy. Also does anyone have any builds where i dont have to specialize. thanks for the help though, celtic.

A basic build would have you as Wizard/White Robe/Warmage/Archmage. If you're willing to be a dark elf, you can choose a different Order (Red or Black). If you're willing to be a renegade wizard, then sign up with the Dark Knights and become a Knight of the Thorn, which gives you limited armored casting and divination bonuses. Remember that elves of Krynn carry a LA.

02-18-05, 10:13 AM Actually, I'm running an Eberron campaign and my DM (first time DMing) is letting my party use any books we want. Also about the LA I pretty sure Krynn elves dont have one and if they do Im pretty sure I can take it without the LA(DM ruling).
