So I was looking at the ur Priest as I've been wanting to make a ur-priest/Bone Knight build but realized that even though I will be able to cast 9th level spells, my actual caster level will be no where near 20 or above.

Is there a way to get high caster levels with an ur-priest? It gets half of all other caster levels. Maybe using Knight of the weave and spellblade or some other combination? I would love a way to get a caster level of 200+ for a really nice algid enhancement spell

Spellthief 1/Wizard 1/Duskblade 1/Dread Necromancer 1/Sorcerer 1/Ur-Priest 1/Bone knight 10/Knight of the Weave 1 gives you CL=25 or 43+12 per practiced spellcaster feat depending on how you read Master Spellthief.

Bauglir had a guide back at the older BG boards.

SirPercival has a loop build on the T.O. board.

Different interpretations can reduce either, and you don't need all of them.

So after looking at this and the links Awaken posted, if I add bloodlines and practiced spellcaster, I came up with 76 for my caster level.. But I'm almost positive that I'm wrong.

Would it be easier to go at this with a completely arcane build and just have a way to cast a couple divine spells?
