Some Simple Spellsword Options
-
Perhaps we can introduce a wizard only feat called 'arcane armaments'- it'll give martial, shield, and medium armor proficiency to the caster, but will stop working if they multiclass out of it?
-
Some of the Mithril Armors help support this playstyle as well.
They have reduced Arcane Spell Failure on the armors -
Zool, I think, mentioned this on the discord.

Basically making your effective caster level 4 levels higher than your actual one. With our level range, something like this would make a martial class a really good pairing with a caster to make a viable spellsword concept.
I think the problem would be the actual scripting of it. Unless I missunderstand, you'd have to have a check for each and every spell script that looks for this feat.

@Dire-Rabbit You could throw it in the spells include...we already have a 'hook' to catch the 'spellcast' event for forced emote items.

@SpiffyMeister Practiced Spellcaster is a Feat
-
Yes, but an 'include' can do stuff like check for feats/parameters before the spell is actually cast.
Not exactly how it works, but close enough that the nuance doesn't matter for purposes of this discussion.
-
We're looking into Practiced Spellcaster as a feat to facilitate all spellcaster multiclasses rather than make a seperate spellsword class.

I would so get alot of use out of that feat!
-
The Practiced Spellcaster feat would open up many muliclass mage ideas.
-
Looking also at adding two additional feats to handle armors.

You guys are spoiling me. <3

Implemented. Closing.
