Class Features
Spellcasting
At each master arcanist level, the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as if he had also gained a level in two differents arcane spellcasting class to which he belonged before adding the prestige class. He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If a character had more than two arcane spellcasting class before he became a Master Arcanist, he must decide to which class he adds each level of Master Arcanist for the purpose of determining spells per day.
Familiar
The master arcanist class level stack with wizard or sorcerer level for purposes of determining the familiar's natural armor, intelligence and abilities.
Spontaneous Learning
At 1st, if the master arcanist have at least one prepared and one spontaneous arcane class, the prepared arcane class automatically record in her spellbook (except spell from a prohibited school), and can prepare from memory, all spontaneous arcane spells know. If the spontaneous arcane class swap it spells know, the prepared arcane class can not prepare the lost spells know from memory, but retain the spell in the spellbook.
And the spontaneous arcane class can learn one spell know per master arcanist level that the prepared arcane class know. These spells are in addition to the number of spells known and cannot be exchanged for different spells at higher levels. Each day the master arcanist can change the learned spells with one hour of preparation.
Increase Spell Power (Su)
Starting at 2nd level, the master arcanist can sacrifice a spell per day or spell slot from one of its arcane classes to incrase the caster level of a spell cast using another arcane class. This sacrificed spell or slot is lost in addition to the spell actually casting. The increase of the caster level is equal the sacrificed spell level. A master arcanist may use this ability three times per day.
Combine Spells
At 3rd level, a master arcanist can cast spells up to 3rd level from one of his arcane spellcasting classes using the spell slots or spells per day of the other arcane spellcasting class. At 6th level Combine Spells allows spells up 6th-level, and at 9th level spells up to 9th level.
Spells prepared or cast in this way take up a slot one level higher than they originally occupied.
For Exemple
Two prepared arcane classes
Can prepare and cast spells from one of his prepared arcane spellcasting classes using the available spell slots from of his other prepared arcane spellcasting classes.
Two spontaneous arcane classes
Can cast spells from one of his spontaneous arcane spellcasting classes using the available spells per day from his other spontaneous arcane spellcasting classes.
One prepared and one spontaneous arcane class
Can prepare and cast spells from his prepared arcane spellcasting class using the available spells per day from his spontaneous arcane spellcasting class.
Can cast prepared spells, even if the spells have already been cast, from his prepared arcane spellcasting classes using the available spells per day from his spontaneous arcane spellcasting classes.
Expert Arcanist (Ex)
At 5th, a master arcanist can always take 10 on Concentration when casting arcane spells, and Spellcraft checks related to arcane spells.
Double Spell (Su)
At 8th level, a master arcanist can cast two spells, one from each of his arcane spellcasting classes, using one full-round action. Both of the spells must have the same casting time. The master arcanist can make any decisions concerning the spells independently. A master arcanist may use this ability once per day.
Versatile Arcanist
At 10th level, the master arcanist learns to the varieties of arcane magic. He still acquires and prepares his spells in the normal manner for his individual arcane spellcasting classes. When he casts them, however, he can mix the spellcasting parameters from any of his arcane classes to gain the maximum possible advantage for any spell.
For exemple, a wizard/bard/master arcanist, can cast any of his sorcerer/wizard spells with no chance of arcane spell failure when wearing light armor, and may use his Charisma to set the maximum spell level and save DC of his wizard spells, or Intelligence modifier to set the maximum spell level and save DC of his bard spells.
