That is a lot of the things I was finding too with not having a cold spell of 3rd level. I am currently playing a 5th Water Singer Bard Undine with my Gen Con 2013 GM Boon and would like to make her a Winter Witch (Witch Archetype) into a Winter Witch prestige class. I can do it by just taking the 5 levels of Winter Witch (Witch Archetype) to go into Winter Witch prestige class. However that only leaves me with 2 levels before the character retires in Society play. taking two more levels in Bard and then one level in Winter Witch (Witch Archetype) and having a 3rd level cold spell as a bard would let me have 4 levels in Winter Witch prestige class. There for getting me the Sculpt Ice and Snow (Sp) ability.
I will look into the other ideas.
Thank you for all the help
