07-01-07, 04:48 PM I came up with the idea for this feat as I realized that a specialist wizard should have the option to make the spells from his specialized school more powerful than a general wizard.

School Focus:
Prerequisite: Must be a specialist wizard
Benefit: Add +1 to the Difficulty Class for all saving throws against spells from your specialized school.
Special: This feat can only be taken once. It's effect stacks with similiar effects like Spell Focus or Greater Spell Focus.

Do you think that would be balanced?

07-01-07, 05:13 PM A third step in the Spell Focus tree that requires you to be a specialist wizard doesn't seem too bad to me.

Though I'd imagine red wizards would drool over it...

And yes, a wizard with spell focus, greater spell focus and school focus has +3 on his DCs, but even a normal generalist wizard can achieve a +2 bonus with two feats.
