Touch of Healing for Wiz w/o Arcane Disciple - Workable?
« on: October 31, 2013, 12:31:19 PM »
Here's the idea: Touch of Healing only has the prerequisite of being able to cast 2nd level spells. I don't want to burn a second feat for my wizard to take Arcane Disciple, but I think this is a legal workaround. Imbue with Spell Ability states that it actually grants the ability to cast a spell, so if a cleric transfers a second level Conjuration(healing) spell to me, I can use Touch of Healing until the spell is cast, dismissed or dispelled.

Of course, this costs the cleric the loss of a 4th level slot and possibly a 2nd level slot (though it doesn't actually say the transferred spell slots are unrecoverable) while I do this. I'm not sure that it's worth that cost, but that's another question; does it seem legal?

I'd say yes.  You meet the prerequisite to take the feat and the requirement for you to use it, so as long as you can find a cleric willing to sac those slots, it should work.
