Errata - Arcane Schools p 194


General Discussion (Prerelease)


Couldn't find an errata thread, so I figured I'd at least post it.

Part of the problem was already mentioned here: LINK

The entire third and fourth paragraphs are written in a confusing manner. I understand the intent, but may cause brain explosions in a new comer.

For example, Instead of gaining a spell of the listed level, the wizard can instead choose a spell of a lower level, which he can then prepare twice per day (except for 2nd level).

WTF! - way too many uses of "level" in that sentence. Obviously, the paranthetical refers to class level, not spell level, but...

Also, wizards gain bonus spells at all even levels except for 8th (4th level spell). I'm guessing this is because they gain a specialist ability at 8th, but just checking to make sure. It seems like a hole, even if intended.

IMO, the whole bonus spells section is clunky and confusing. I'd almost rather have no bonus spells, and add more spell-like abilities, similar to the domain powers.

Thoughts?
