By the way it is theoretically possible to build a RWoT with Autoquicken IV. The only problem is you can't pick Autoquicken IV as a feat! :cry:

Personally with all the extra DCs and CLs RWoT get, i would focus on defences. Either spell strategies or Cheesy feats ( CE/ICE ) or PRCs or all of the above.

How to build a RWoT: By Flasmix

Step 1: Create Character.
Step 2: Level character up.
Step 3: After taking your first RWoT level, RCR character.
Step 4: Play anything else.

Tsidkenu wrote:M3nt, why did you suggest not to take Spellpower III? RWoT is the only class it becomes a plausible investment because they can reach CL 38 in their specialised school for an extra DC point. Is that worth the spell slot losses for Archmage Spellpower I, II & III? That's the question. You either go for level 8 Archmage Spellpower III (CL 38) or nothing at all (CL 35).
Because

You get the extra CL from Blood component to reach the magic number of 38 without spell power III
Ok. But, the bloodmage is banned for RWoT, right?

I dont know that 100%. There are more knowledgeable players than me on that matter. Personally i dont see why RWoT would be banned from it. After all you only need a near death experience to learn more about the essence of life - blood. RWoT can die, cant they? :D

Yes, but from all sources I heard it is banned. For no reason really, it just that way. Maybe becuse RWs were so op (joke).

Anyways, if you prove me wrong I will be happy.

The only source that can say that is the DM team. Maybe make a post in the "Questions for DMs" thread?

Question asked. If they say it is ok, I will be really happy. It fits the RP of the toon perfectly.

The Bloodmagus class lacks proper lore and it was tossed around that Bloodmagic is BARBARIC and BENEATH Red Wizards. Which i think is total bullcrap.

Demonists, necromancers, slavers but self conscious about how they would be seen if they mastered a dark art? Puh-lease.

I would like to know which piece of lore says that Thayans don't like blood magic. When people write up stuff like that they should really source themselves.

If there is a source that indicates they don't like it, then by all means, keep it restricted. But I've not seen such a mention in any RW source I've read, which is a lot.

"server made up lore" is the answer. No real lore attached to it.
