Lupo1977 05-22-07, 04:00 AM	hello community, got a question i play a sorcerer1/fighter4 my char has the feat "practised spellcaster" do i fulfill the requierments for the "craft wonderous Item" Feat (PHB), so i could take it at 6th level (my fifth fighter level)? from SRD : Craft Wondrous Item [Item Creation] Prerequisite Caster level 3rd. Benefit [...] (i do not want to discuss about how much sense the class-combo makes, or how i could fulfill the preq. by taking other classlevels - ist just about "practised spellcaster and the preq. for crafting feats) thanks for your help

Lupo1977 05-22-07, 04:58 AM	Wonderful - this is what i wanted to hear :-) but .. uhmm.. is their maybe any official or semi-official source that states the same ? i searched the errata and faq but couldnīt find anything ?

The prerequisite for Wondrous items is a caster level of 5. Practiced Spellcaster adds 4 to your caster level,which would give you a caster level of 5 total.You can't get much more official than the direct wording of the feats.I'm not entirely sure why you were looking for errata,but there isn't any because it's explicitly worded in the feats.

Of course, you'll still have to have the spells required for creating individual wondrous items. Stat boost items, for example, require 2nd level spells.
Lupo1977 05-22-07, 07:53 AM	okay, cool. i can buy scrolls for the 2nd level spells, the scrolls casterlevel is 3 (for bullīs strenght i.e.) i cast "read magic" then i have to do a casterlevel check against DC 3+1 = 4 with the PS-feat my casterlevel is 5 so itīs an automatic success or i hire a spellcaster as described in PHB page 129 for 60GP for one bullīs strenght per day. this is how it should work... ?
Vegepygmy 05-22-07, 12:40 PM	then i have to do a casterlevel check against DC 3+1 = 4No, there is no caster level check. You only make a caster level check if your own caster level is lower than the scroll's caster level. The scroll's caster level is 3. Your caster level is 5. 5 is not less than 3, so no caster level check. You do, however, need at least a 12 Charisma. (I assume you have it.)

I think you have to have the spell available to you every day, so you would need to have 1 scroll available for each day to cast just as the hired spellcaster would have to cast multiple spells. That's a lot of scrolls.
