Well, aside from the +2 to DC, a lot of these schools don't really seem to have a mechanical advantage or reason to take them other than RP reasons. I mean like; Divination is great RPwise, but what can you possibly use a +2 DC for, there are like no offsensive divination spells.


Brainstorming time, IMO.


My suggestion would be like

Evocation GSF = All evocations spells empowered automatically.

Enchantment   = Wand crafting wands get more charges? Higher CL on the item?

Conjuration     = Additional 3 rounds/level for summon duration (Maybe allow the PC to choose their own summoning theme permanently between rests, provided they have a reagent in their inventory to accomodate this, destroying the reagent but making it's effect last until the PC rests.)

Transmutation = Empowered/extended automatically?

Abjuration       = Double duration for abjuration spells

Necromancy    = Empowered automatically/Summon theme shift to noncorporeal undead? (or maybe weaker zombie subsets than animation provides?)

Illusion           =  Empowered/extended or summoning theme shift to illusary theme.

Requiem

Empowered  or extended spells in a specific spell school for GSF, which already raises the DC, is too powerful.

If someone is going to step away from BUFFBOT and becoming a offensive fireballer of death, you're damn right I'm going to fear their amazingly powerful fireballs.

Yalta

GSF and SF are already very powerful, don't see the need to change.

Thomas_Not_very_wise

I'd support this.

Wizards need to be more terrifying-

But then, wouldn't this affect NPC's as well? Wizards are already murder!

I'd be very against this also, SF and GSF are powerful as it is.

Sandstorm

Strongly against. Even GSF Divination is powerful if used right.

GSF + Find traps=win

Howlando

Some of these proposals will never happen, and would absolutely be imbalancing.

However, there already are bonuses that maybe you're not aware of associated with some of the GSF feats of certain schools specially scripted for EFUA.

Wizards are really good -- they just lack lasting power. These suggestions are wack.

tooh

Create Kryptonite, color's debate.

I can has fun?

GSF Enchantment and Illusion do not need any improvements!

Equinox

I'm in totall agreement, in regards to the fact thats wizards need to be scary.

currently, a typical scene ~Wizard vs Fighter

wizard:holds a flaming ball of DOOM up in the fighters face and tells him he could set fire to his head and cremate his corpse befor ehe hits the floor

fighter: laughs, stabs wizard.

anybody? personally it doesnt matter how disciplined you are, when someone holds a big ball of flame 5 inches from your face, the only thing you do is say, yes sir, no sir, 3 bags bloody full sir.

That's got nothing to with GSF feats, or even Fighters.
