Differences from Tabletop
- A large difference from tabletop is this class has been stretched to balance it: in tabletop it is a prestige class with 5 levels allowing a High Arcana each level. In Time of Unparalleled Darkness, Archmage is a 10 level prestige class which allows you a high arcana at level 2 and each second level after.
- To lessen the effects of the above thing, the requirement for knowledge of at least 5 fifth level spells from different schools is abolished.
- Knowledge (Arcana) is combined into the Occultism skill in Time of Unparalleled Darkness, and as such, the requirement for it is substituted with Occultism.
- All things given as "per day" in tabletop become "per rest" in Time of Unparalleled Darkness.
It should be noted that this is based on the original Forgotten Realms version, not the later one.
Prestige Class Requirements
To become an archmage, a character must fulfill all the following requirements:
Skills: Occultism 15 ranks, Spellcraft 15 ranks
Feats: Skill Focus (Spellcraft), two or more Spell Focus feats.
Spellcasting: Ability to cast 7th-level arcane spells.
