What would be fair bonuses to trade cantrips for?


Homebrew and House Rules


I am curious as to how much cantrips/orisons are actually worth in pathfinder. If a player wanted a custom/homebrew archetype that traded out cantrips/orisons, what should they get in return? How would this vary based on the differing spellcasting classes, as different spell lists, cantrip/orison numbers, plus prepared vs divine should make a difference.

I do know there are two things by 4 Winds fantasy Games that make assumptions of the value of cantrips/orisons: first is a ranger archetype that trades favoured terrain for druid orisons; second is a feat that gives two extra cantrips/orisons. It just seems a bit rushed to judge value purely based on those two.

What are the opinions on what would be balanced for a homerule alternative to cantrips/orisons?
