Well, after that sorcerer stats thread i did a lot of experimenting on the effects of statistics with regards to these classes.
Heres what i found: Sorcerer: Charisma affects how often you can cast spells, the maximum level of spell you can cast, and the DC your spells have. Wizard: intelect does everything that a sorcerers charisma does A sorcerer with high charisma and intelect will still have the same DC/spells as one with low intelect. A wizard with high charisma and intelect will still have the same DC/spells as one with low charisma. Some other things to note: the DC of a spell seems to be determined by: feats, primary statistic as mentioned earlier, AND the spells level (so for instance finger of death(7) will be 3 points harder to resist than phantasmal killer(4) So, to me, this means if i was going to play the gun-boat type of wizard or sorcerer i could handle having an average int or cha (19) but if i wanted to rely on spells that have a fortitude/reflex/will save i would want to raise my int or cha as high as possible. |

Okay, here are the rules (for all spell casters) :
Cleric/Druid/Rangers/Paladin need wisdom for their spell casting effectiveness. Sorcerer/Bard need charisma. Wizard (specialist or not) needs intelligence. Your attribute (wis or cha or int) limits the level of the spells you could prepare/learn. Your attribute must equal (at least) 10+spell level. Then DC for the saving agains yours spell is : 10 + spell level + your attribute bonus + feat "spell focus [school of magic]" (grant a +2) Your roll to bypass magic resistance is : d20 + caster level + feat "spell penetration" (grant a +2) Have fun. |
