<t>I agree with you 100%. Having a "primary" spellcasting class definitely fixes the spell progression. I was just trying to make sure they didn't have very many spells.<br/> <br/> I'll think a little more on the class abilities. I see what you're saying. I was just trying to leave it up to the play...

The raven says it gives an extra 1st lvl spell/day. Is that an oversight? Is it supposed to give an extra use of the lesser boon, or is that for multiclassing purposes?

Oh I understand the "firing into melee." I was talking about firing at someone who is right next to you..essentially firing within melee range. Is that still treated as firing "into" melee?

Oh..forgot to ask. I am not sure if I missed this or not, but does a shaman have to choose an elemental path or are all the elemental spells open to them at the same time?

<t>This definitely has great potential. I think lowering the usage of the spirits per day to 1+cha mod is too much..maybe 1+1/2 lvl+cha mod? <br/> <br/> Also..with the restructuring..maybe just base the spell-like abilities off of a mage's progression and stretching it out over some levels. If you'r...

Melee Firing

What are the normal rules on firing a ranged weapon when in melee range of an opponent? I think I'm asking the same question as serleran.

Also, you could raise that to a d8 HD since the concept you are going for is closer to a ranger than a rogue/assassin, IMO.
