Class Features

The following features pertain to the Archmage prestige class.

Total Spellcasting

Count all character caster levels when determining the Archmage’s casting level for arcane spells.

Increased Spells/Day

At 2nd level, the Archmage increases the base number of arcane spells per day by one half (round down). This increase occurs before modifications for high intelligence or other alterations. At 4th level, the Archmage again increases the number of arcane spells available per day, this time to a total of twice what he would normally have. As before, this increase happens prior to any modifications or alterations.

Gifted Incantations

Granted Incantations

At 5th level, failure during an Incantation holds no penalty for the Archmage.
