08-03-07, 09:13 AM Hey guys, in the Rage Mage PrC under the Spell Rage ability it says:

A rage mage can cast spells while in a rage, as long as the spell's casting time is no more than one full round

it then goes on to say:

When she casts a spell of the abjuration, conjuration, evocation, necromancy, or transmutation school while in a rage, the rage mage uses her character level as her caster level. This ability only works when the rage mage is in a spell rage.

What I am wondering, is does the claus "This ability only works when the rage mage is in a spell rage." apply only to the second quote, or also to the first?

In other words, can a Rage Mage cast spells if it is in a normal rage or only if it is in a Spell Rage?

So... it must be that you have to declarate the rage you will use to be a Spell Rage and only then you can receive the bonuses from it (being able to cast while in Barbarian Rage). :D

08-03-07, 02:19 PM All mentions of "in a rage", "raging", and others, in the entries for the PrC, refer to "spell rage", since it's specifically mentionned you don't actually cast spells while in a barbarian's rage, but rather while in a rage mage's spell rage.

Clearer?
