Im playing a crafter. Wizard. All crafting feats. Im mainly planning on using this for Constructs. Specifically golems, which have a notoriously high CL requirement + shield guardian adding another 2 ontop. Reason being i wanna get a jumpstart on my real plans with this PC, but by the looks of things ill have to wait another couple levels..
if you talk about increasing your cl for feat pre requests then there isn't anything i know of that allow yo ut ocount more then your charactre level. BUT there are some class archtype and or given powers(domain\mystories) that let you gain specific crafting feats earlier. such as the forgepriest( warpriest archtype) that get craf magial arms nad armor at level 3 (when i belive the faet need you to be level 5 caster)
the only expection i know of is the spherewalker in case he didnt have casting levels before entering the class. he count his caster level as 2X his class level for the domain spells he gain but the class is only 5 levels and need bab of +5 so at the end you count as 10th levle at a minimum of level 10(if the class had more levels then 5, each level after 5 would have had the potential of increasing the caster level above the character level.
If you don't have the CL to make a Shield Guardians, then the DC is +5. Same as any other missing requirement.
