::I'm with Ghost on the full BAB thing though, medium would be a better call. It's probably not overpowered per se though, no more than a regular wizard or sorcerer is, but it does step on toes and that's not particularly cool. More generally, I think the [[UA:Sorcerer Variant: Battle Sorcerer|battle sorcerer]] already does most of what you're looking for actually, though you'd need to open it up to wizards as well. If you wanted to go a bit farther you could start with that chassis and remove the familiar in exchange for martial weapon proficiency, which seems a reasonable trade off to me (since it's basically a level 1 feat swap IMO). - [[User:Tarkisflux|Tarkisflux]] 00:15, 15 February 2011 (UTC) | ::I'm with Ghost on the full BAB thing though, medium would be a better call.

Overpowered
Is this overpowered? Should I also give them light armor proficiency, and allow them to spellcast in it with no penalty?The Dire Reverend 20:58, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'd say so. Compare to the duskblade (PHB2) or the battle sorcerer. Just the full BAB tells meleers "screw you" even in Tome games that use The Edge. Already giving them that is too much, no need to give them armor prof on top. At the very least I'd reduce it to medium BAB. --Ghostwheel 00:03, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
