so i was checking this archetype that looks like the kind of char i usually play and i wanted some feedback about it, is it really good? bad? underpowered?
and also:
Elven Arcana (Ex): At 2nd level, an ancient lorekeeper’s
mastery of elven legends and philosophy has allowed her
to master one spell used by elven wizards. She selects one
spell from the sorcerer/wizard spell list that is at least one
level lower than the highest-level oracle spell she can cast.
The ancient lorekeeper gains this as a bonus spell known.
The spell is treated as one level higher than its true level
for all purposes. The ancient lorekeeper may choose an
additional spell at 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 14th, 16th, and
18th levels. This ability replaces the bonus spells she would
normally gain at these levels from her chosen mystery
(bold mine)
this means that at lvl 2 i gotta pick a wizard cantrip and i can cast it as a 1st lvl spell?
Seems like that should kick in at third....
well oracle, like a sorc, is not able to cast lvl 2 spells untill lvl 4, so even if it kicks in at 3rd, is still weird
at 2nd level you get a sorcerer cantrip you can use as a 1st level spell, which does suck, but afterwards you can cast color spray or magic missile as a 2nd level spell, glitterdust or scorching ray as a 3rd, fireball as a 4th, which considering how many spells you get i think is awesome. i made an elven life oracle choosing the favored class bonus to increase the channel energy revelation by 50%, plus gets to cast boom spells. at 8th level i can spend a move action to heal allies 6d6 plus use my standard action to blow some people up with a fireball. i think that's worthwhile.
