#9 ieniemienie Mar 28, 2008 10:26:21	Yeah, keep reading. that made my day

If by focused you mean specialized, then yes, this could work. But if you really do mean focused as in the Focused Specialist PrC from CM, then this could never work; you'd be completely immersed in PrC's w/o having met any prerequisites :P

But if you really do mean focused as in the Focused Specialist PrC from CM, then this could never work; you'd be completely immersed in PrC's w/o having met any prerequisites :P No, this works fine. Remember that Focused Specialist isn't a PrC - it's a variant wizard type. My current favored wizard build is Focused Specialist Wiz3/Master Specialist3/Mage of the Arcane Order7/Archmage5 with 2 levels left to play with, more if I decide not to go full Archmage, so I know his build is possible as far as pre-reqs. :D
#12 magius_rerecros Mar 28, 2008 16:44:21	Yeah, my mistake. I was confusing Focused Specialist with Master Specialist. Well, that just goes to show you how long it's been since I've opened up Complete Mage :P I've been on a Psionic binge of sorts, recently.
#13 zhao Mar 28, 2008 21:45:20	Anyone know where i can find stats for Strongheart Halfling
#14 Senevri Mar 29, 2008 5:19:56	Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting. Personally, I'd go for Races of Stone Whisper Gnome instead. Or just a plain Gnome. Gnomes are awesome. They're ahead other races by a nose's lenght. :P As a level 10 wizard you also have the option of doing a Planar Chaos Mage, which might be interesting. As a Focused Specialist, you could cast 5th level spells at least 6 times/day. *edit* Maybe try this build.... That being said, I'm not sure if anyone's ever tried this one in an actual game.
