In the Exploiter Exploit class feature it says "This ability replaces arcane school" i interpret it meaning that the player does not gain the Arcane School class feature at all and therefore he can not be a universalist wizard or take his class abilities but that he can cast spells from all arcane schools since he does not specialise in a single one.
My player interprets it that he does get the universalist wizard abilities (metamagic mastery for example) because he does not choose a school to specialise.
Can anyone offer an opinion plz?
Thanks in advance :)
You are correct for 2 reasons
1)You are reading the rules correctly
2) He is badly rules lawyering and the GM is always right anyway (after reasonable discussion)
