03-01-07, 07:55 PM Powerful Study[General]
By spending longer studying your spells, your magic becomes more powerful
Prerequisites: Int 13+, Iron Will, Reserves of Strength, wizard level 10+, Knowledge (arcana) 8 ranks
Benefit: By spending longer studying your spellbook, you may increase the effective caster level of a spell. For every additional hour you spend studying your spellbook, increase the caster level of a selected spell by +1. If interrupted, you must make a Concentration check (DC 15+ Spells level) or start over. You can increase the caster level of up to three spells, but for every additional spell increased, the study takes twice as long.

I would really like to hear your opinions on this. Is it overpowered, underpowered, useless? Any feedback is appreciated.

03-01-07, 08:27 PM Do spells REALY need to be more powerful?
