Rogue Talent: Minor Magic = Caster Level

[I3igAl]

If a rogue selects some of the Magic Rogue Talents, does his Class Level now count as his caster level?

"The caster level for this ability is equal to the rogue's level. The save DC for this spell is 10 + the rogue's Intelligence modifier."

Does this mean he can use this Caster Level to select Magic Item Creation feats?

The OP isn't me, I swear. :)

eta: And probably not. The "for this ability" seems to have the intent of denoting that you only have a caster level for this ability, not in general.

Yes to the first question. No to the second question because the Magic Rogue Talents is a spell like ability so the rogue doesn't actually have caster levels, he/she just uses the rogue level for how powerful and what the DC for the spell is.

Ok thanks, thought so too. A rogue in our group took this and I thought it was fishy. However I think, I will let him keep his crafting since Rogue are already inferior to most other classes.
