Rouge talent major magic


Rules Questions


Hey guys, was wondering if you could take major or minor magic more than once to get another spell. Thanks in advance for you input.

Nope.

As a rogue gains experience, she learns a number of talents that aid her and confound her foes. Starting at 2nd level, a rogue gains one rogue talent. She gains an additional rogue talent for every 2 levels of rogue attained after 2nd level. A rogue cannot select an individual talent more than once.

That said, I'm not sure that it would be unbalancing to do so. You wouldn't get a second first level spell until eighth level (assuming you require minor magic 2x to take major magic 2x). Two first level spells a day at that level is hardly game breaking, especially since the rogue would have no other talents. Ask your GM.

At that point, a 1 level dip into sorcerer or wizard might be worthwhile. A Cha of 12 gives you 4 first level spells per day and you know two spells. An Int of 12 gives you 3 first level spells per day (if you specialize) and 4 spells known. You also get powers that are on the level of a first level spell. The only downside would be if you cared about the caster level of the spells.

Wow, I am surprised that this post went on as long as it did without the Rouge/Rogue comments... :P

I too see no problems with allowing it to happen more than once. After all, rogue talents are a limited resource.

RAW= You can't.

Rule 0= You can if your DM saysso.

Nuff' said.

Under RAW, the rogue can't take ANY rogue talent more than once. I wanted to take "Combat Trick" (additional combat feat) a second time but it was not allowed, even though I wanted to take a different feat.
