It's in UE. It gains 9/10 CL, .75 BAB, and some nifty channel spell abilities.
I'm throwing it into a Gish build of mine, but I'm wondering if it's any good, or if I'm wasting my time?
Here's the houserules we're using:
I took Imbued Staff as the Obtain Familiar feat, so it operates at caster level. This allows me to channel spells as a Standard Action. Note the issue there. Nice, sure.
If you only move 1/2 your speed, you may still Full Attack that round. I wear Full Plate, but it's Medium armor and my base speed is 40'. So, I can move 15' per round and still hit.
I'm a Power Attack user, as well as Arcane Strike. No Leap Attack, though, we're not trying to clobber everything.
Raumathari Battlemage allows me to channel spells (in the levels listed in the class) as a free action, but it's a slow progression. Still, this allows me to throw down a Shocking Grasp into my Heavy Metal Bastard Sword, Arcane Strike, and still move 15' and Full Attack.
Or, are there better options?
