Good (cheeser! [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) thinking, but I'm not going to give BioWare credit for thinking that far ahead, when they couldn't even write a Jaheira Romance.

I'm for changing Tenser's so that it only blocks Wizard spells, and allows Priest spells and HLAs (correcting the coding on the HLAs if necessary). If some opportunistic Blade wants to abuse the engine and exploit the Slayer change in order to circuvment the rule that Tenser's blocks your Wizard spells, then it'll be pretty difficult to pull that off without the nagging sensation that you're taking advantage of a bug. Besides, at 2 Rep. points per use, I don't think it's a trick that's going to see a lot of use.

(And it's no cheesier--or more powerful--than a Simulacrum under Tenser's, using PfMW scrolls. Can a Simulacrum cast Slayer Change?)
