'Tis a shame that there are only 6 scalable spells in that book.

A Moment Ago, End, Graced by the Saints, Spellscatter, Stupor, and Summon Fey. The first being the best of the lot.

So, Player's Guide to the Sovereign Lands has a list of it's spells that are able to be made permanent? And should that spell have the Scaleable subtype written in your allspells.txt?

Could someone provide me with some uses of a moment ago? I just can't think of anything uber but something tells me that there are such uses.

Heighten it, and it'll apply to all but L9 spells (would work really well with Favorable Sacrifice for one)

Don't divine spells only need the focus, not the material components? As such all your archivist spells don't need components?

I had used academic priest initially, then changed over to Lost Tradition. It's changes over all aspects of spell casting to a stat, thus the DC is changed to being based on intelligence also (0 level spells have 31 DC )

I'm the only crafter, the only divine, the only "arcane". The others are a lich trapmonkey rogue/ninja, a tiefling vampire ninja precision based, a half giant, half fiend barbarian, and the last is something that is wholly precision damage, like 6-11 classes to give him 13d6 precision damage attack.

I can scribe scrolls though. Gaining spells isn't a problem really, my background is part of a knowledge based church and I'm the 133 year old kobold librarian. The DM's storyline is that the churches are combining efforts to take down an entity that is currently a god that shouldn't be a god. As such the churches will provide my spells. I just need the ones that can qualify for an archivist and then the more useful ones of those.

Then, the equipment is for the most part crafted by me; anything able to be crafted with Craft Wondrous Item feat. The time for our "training" into god assassins is 15 years. Lots of time to slowly make up stuff that I'll need. I'm just not sure what will be good to have. The DM has to make custom monsters to deal with CR 23 players. At least he says he has all the story aspects complete.

I have some questions that i put at the bottom of the OP if anyone can offer me insight, I'd be most appreciative.

My build is probably too optimized as it has a lot of things that many DM's wont do. I am predominantly a ray user. Unfortunately on my build vs. yours, all books are allowed: 3.0, 3.5, pathfinder, and 3rd party books. But you can get some ideas.

My weapon is a sorcerer's hand which allows you to apply the numerical enchantment bonus to the attack roll of your rays. Ranged touch attack ftw! Precision is required for Splitting which doubles the ray in mid flight, both rays must hit the same target but get separate attack rolls. (Arms and Equipment Guide p. 117, definitely not pathfinder but you may be able to recraft it)

Many of my spells (in the prayerbook) are of the buff/debuff variety. With pathfinder's version of reach, and with touch spell metamagic from pathfinder's complete advanced feats you can make ranged buffs and debuffs of near anything. (Though if you could get D&D 3.5's version of reach then those spells become rays.  )

At the very least it'll help you with ideas on where to go.

Edit: Rays are darned good if you wanna avoid critters using evasion to get outta getting hit. Just gotta beat their touch AC... Touch Mastery from Complete Advanced Feats would help with that, as it uses your INT modifier rather than your STR modifier for your touch attacks (melee and ranged)

Updated Feat list.
Still need 1 more feat

Updated Equipment list - showing what is in each of the pathfinder granted body slots
Still need neck and feet slot
Still need to figure out how to add more to the spellcraft check.

Will update spell list on the morrow.

Changed Vampire lord from linky to spoiler so you aren't redirected elsewhere to look at it.

In some of the posts here, GitP, and Brilliant Gameologist, there have been mention of 50% off magical items if only the character can use it. This is separate from the 50% reduction in market price due to being the creator of the item. Is that additional 50% from a book or SRD/PRD? Or another source that I can point it out to my DM.

Looking deeper into Spellwarp sniper and i'm not seeing how it'll do me any good. So, I'll need to come up with a new 20th level class, or go back to having Archivist 4 in that slot. I REALLY dislike what pathfinder did to Persistent Spell.

Need to see if there is a spellcaster level advancing PrC that can be taking before 5th level, to replace some of those archivist levels in the beginning.

oki I keep checking. Found out about an hour ago that the game I'm building this character for wont start for at least 6 months. T_T
