Talk:Magocrat (3.5e Prestige Class)

Balance

Please keep in mind it supposed to be used with NPC. Thank you.--Lord Dhazriel 15:05, 21 November 2008 (MST)

Why should a level X NPC be more powerful than an equivalent level X PC? The PrC is rather overpowered, yeah. Surgo 17:42, 21 November 2008 (MST)

Because, why does a X NPC should be weaker then the PCs, commoners, warriors and aristocrats are weak. Mage Kings should get some neats stuff, why does a PCs should be equal to a legendary mage? Why should a PC be equal to a common farmer? Same thing you see. IN some world, some NPCs are greater in every aspect then the PCs, in world were NPCs are completly equal or weaker to the PCs, the class doesn't exist.--Lord Dhazriel 17:32, 25 November 2008 (MST)

I didn't say a similarly-leveled NPC should be weaker than a PC of equivalent level. If you want the NPC to be stronger than the PCs, there's a simple solution: make them higher level. A level 10 character should be equivalent in power to another level 10 character. That's what having a certain level means.

That's not to mention the uselessness of a "players can't take this" prestige class to begin with. A prestige class on a public space is useless if players can't take it, as they're the only people that actually use them. NPCs just have totally arbitrary stats written down on paper. Why does this prestige class even have prerequisites if it's for NPC use only? Surgo 19:30, 25 November 2008 (MST)

In theory it useful when I make Boss-NPC. And in some high-powered game it may even be allowed as a PC Class (The kind of game Ur-Priest and Planar Shepherd is allowed. But I must say I would like to make the class available to Players. So comments about balance would be appreciate.--Lord Dhazriel 22:00, 27 November 2008 (MST)
