Does anyone know if anyoen has adapted this class to hero lab?

I have done some, but the special abilities really stumps me for creating. I am not a programmer by nature and my head does not wrap around it very well. So I was just curious if anyoen has already done this.

Thanks,
Ashura

I'm not aware of anyone who has, though we have hopes of doing it ourselves... someday.


Thanks for the info.

I did some of the basics like class levels and skills and all that. Got magic selection (but using arcane or divine energy is left to the player to recall and make appropriate spell selections).

The biggest thing that I cannot figure out is the Mystic Bond. I know it has to be a drop down, but not sure about how to go about the rest. I did pull out the script for the sorcerer bloodline, but since I don't program well I get lost looking it over. ^_^

Well until it comes out I'll just have to keep paper notes on that player.

Thanks again,
Ashura


Something I'm a bit curious after looking the Magister over is why you would choose to play a sorcerer over this class. From what I can see, the Magister basically includes all of the sorcerer class features as selectable options, and the Magister also gets additional features on top of these. Am I missing something, or mis-reading the Magister class?

Major drawbacks are you dont automatically get the spells known from the sorceror bloodline, you have to choose them, you have a more restricted bloodline list and your casting is split between Charisma and wisdom.

Also a lot of the really keen bloodlines and expspecially the crossblooding and wildblooded stuff isnt available.

The main thing a magister with a bloodline lacks compared to a sorcerer is a bonus spell known at each spell level, and eschew materials. Since those spells are gained when they are the highest level spell either class knows, each one would take a feat (Expadned Arcana) for the Magsiter to catch up to the sorcerer in Spells Known. When you add Eschew Materials itself, that's ten feats of spellpower a sorcerer has and a magister doesn't.


Mr Owen I have a question regarding one of the magisters mystic talents.

I'd like to ask about the Mystic Accuracy ability, can the magister select himself as a target to be excluded if the Spell in question is a Emanation spell that emanates from him?

Example: Can a Magister use this ability with Antimagic Field to make himself able to cast magic while under the effect of his own Antimagic Field?

Mako, it is generally better to start new threads than necro-ing a 2 year old thread that isn't even on the same topic as your question.

Beyond that, questions like that are generally better under the product discussion as that will help other people who have the same question and most authors watch their product threads closer than they do other random threads.

Sorry im still new to this, and i wasn't sure how to best ask the author. :)

Where would I ask this question?

Here is probably your best bet.

And nothing to be sorry about, everyone is new at some point, I only know this because I did the same thing.

Sure! I do my best to watch for questions.

Yes, as long as it meets all the other qualifications.

In this case the answer is no, because antimagic field doesn't qualify for mystic accuracy.

Mystic accuracy says: "When the magister casts a spell with an area and an instant duration,"

Antimagic field has a duration of 10 minutes/level, so it be affected by mystic accuracy.
