High Magic Spell Mastery
DIR By: iikepie13

High Magic Spell Mastery Prerequisite Every Path of magic in the
book or every High Magic Family Mastery
This High Magic allows the caster, after a long time of studying
and fighting, to cast every spell for minus one mana. This would
stack with family mastery, this would not stack with High Magic
Evocation.
Now I know that Mana and subtracting is under fire right now.
However if you have spent all the time required to get this far
I feel it is a good bump for those ultra high lvl casters.

Base cost 0, I assume? Meaning what, 1st and 2nd level spells
are free?

Unless the rules at errata for mana change then yes. Feather
Fall, Detect precious metals, Enflame, Identify liquid,
displace, Detect law, detect chaos, Detect Mind, Detect taint,
detect life, Strengthen, read soul, detect enchantment, detect
age, find/hide the path, Vibrate, create focus, detect mark,
detect purity, detect glyph. Would (as the rules stand) be free.

The Martial Classes already fall behind Spell Casters in the
late game, widening the gap does not seem prudent at this time.
This is a good example of abilities that should be put in a book
designed for higher level play.

That was my thought. I'm OK with source/ class books as long as
we keep it to a minimum. 3.5 kind of got out of hand with the
books.

IIke, I agree whole heartedly, 3.5, an example of 'too much' of
a good thing, gets just a little less good.

I agree with Zaud.
You run into issues if combined with Evocation as well, since
technically a spell would be cast for 1 and then reduced to 0
cost, but with bonuses from evocation would stack damage quick.

That's why I said it wouldn't stack with evocation. Same as
family mastery doesn't stack with evocation.

Zaud, why do you say that martial classes fall behind?

Samjuria, Grandmasters can use any weapon and buy Grandmaster
+skills. Mages with Magic mastery can potentially stun, blind,
buff, heal, renew, deal a variety of damage types that martials
can't even touch without magic, weaken, command/enthrall, ruin,
invisibility and they get to learn as many paths as they can get
instructors for to potentially learn the cheapest or hardest to
resist versions of each of these.
You can parry a death strike, who as a PC is going to be able to
shield a sound kill?
