S.O.: Post #21, so close, then you ended with "What can I say, he doesn't disappoint". Which is baiting again. I realize by reading through the thread to follow that he is really responsive to you baiting him, so do try to resist the urge. Also, in bringing up something other than just the Domain Wizard, especially when you yourself admit that you didn't have access to the material to which you were referring, that is a Straw-Man / Red Herring.

It's not baiting to me. As noted, I fully except a load of BS from him. Probable with that is, you think that's a bad thing. CJ probably does to, but who cares. My words, my message, my intent. If you haven't figured out by now all people in a debate are my entertainment then you never will.

Also I could not do research on CC, hey guess what? Not only did I never claim to quote the CC (only mentioned as I don't know the text of Domain Wizard within, only the SRDs), the only claim I put forth was the SRD's version says no. Because ALL of UA's Variants swap out their respected Class Features, either google it or look in the UA. See also the point of can't trade the same feature away twice which others (including your self) have agreed to.

The real problem is I come across like sandpaper covered in bees. Essentially, your own word filter need a SorO interpreter. As I have pointed out, bonus spells of X level is TO and easily argued as wrong, but learn to pick your battles and thus the main part I've really been hitting on is the Generalist Wizard + Domain Wizard + Versatile Spellcaster fails for a multitude of reasons but not simply because forgot a word.

Here's the info for spellcasters and high ability scores:  http://www.d20srd.org/srd/theBasics.htm#abilitiesAndSpellcasters  Note the line that says "In addition to having a high ability score, a spellcaster must be of high enough class level to be able to cast spells of a given spell level."  That might throw a rather large wrench into this whole thing depending on how it's interpreted.

That's another good point.

You're welcome. And I've always read it as applying to Bonus spells and not other traits. FAQ already attempts to explain the difference between simply casting spells and inheritance and only the latter meats Feat requirements.

Technically DMs have been ruling such for years. When has any DM let you into a Caster PrC because you can functionally cast X level of spells using UMD and Scrolls? The quest for early entry has always been a give or take ground of the goal and appeal of rules handling.

There's also this: you can only get open spell slots when preparing spells for the day.

Specifically this: "When preparing spells for the day, a wizard can leave some of these spell slots open."

If you'll look closely, nowhere is there any mention I can see regarding gaining new slots. Just leaving open pre-existing slots.

The slots don't exist until you sit down to prepare spells. There is nothing to leave open until you do that.

That is incorrect. There is nothing in any text I can see supporting this. Slots are filled and expended, but they still exist.

Which at the very least puts a timer on Versatile Spellcaster.

No. Not at all. Once Elf Wizard has done it's thing, it's totally self-sustaining.
