Okay this is more of a call out than anything. At 10th level the Abjuration specialized Wizard can cast Stoneskin 3/day <-----
This seems excessive. 1/day would be better I think. Unless corrected I am assuming this is a typo.

It's a bit excessive in light of the material component the spell requires (and the spell-like ability does not), but it's fitting the established pattern, of the 10th level ability either being a 5th level spell 1/day or a 4th level spell 3/day. Perhaps Break Enchantment or Dismissal 1/day would be a better fit.
did i miss some rule change cause last time i checked spell like powers still needed GP or XP material(note the pit fiend and his wish spell 1/day it still costs him 5k) or i am wrong here?

"A spell-like ability has no verbal, somatic, or material component, nor does it require a focus or have an XP cost."
Easy fix, used at our table: stoneskin (self or familiar only) 3/day.

(Shrug) All the PC wizards and sorcerers at my table cast it pretty much every combat anyway (on themselves and the melee guys -- wizards craft a wand ASAP), and just pay the (fairly low) GP cost. If 750 gp/day adventuring is that big a deal, just hand out that much less treasure. Now, if you want to make a case that stoneskin is too good a spell and needs to be nerfed, that's a point I might go along with. But if your claim is that 250 gp (less than 1/10 of the mean profit for one 7th level encounter) is the difference between broken and perfect, I disagree.
