I know that the Rainbow Servant prestige class adds all Cleric spells to a Wizard's spell list, but is there any other way to add Divine spells to a Wizard's spell book.

Looking at making at the possibility of being Arcane (Wizard) Healer as a different alternative to being a Divine Healer. But don't want to have to rely on Wands and scrolls for some of the all utility heals and resurrection spells (Restoration, Panacea, Revenance, Revivify)

There's always the option of theurging.

I believe there's also a domain option for wizards, but I don't know the source for that. Probably CM or CAr.

I think I saw something earlier today in the dysfunctional RAW thread about this. If I recall correctly, yes, a wizard can add them to the spell book from a scroll. That in of itself does not grant them the ability to prepare them.

Arcane Disciple for Healing domain? It makes you a little MAD but you do get some healing out of it, and you can rely on items (e.g. Periapt of Wis) to get by with low PB.

I will be using Arcane Disciple for the Healing Domain which will give me the base Cure spells and Heal Spells to my spell list. Looking for the other spells. Since I know Archivists can basically get most Wizard/Sorcerer spells. Was hoping there was enough for the reverse to be true.

Combat Medic (Heroes of Battle variant, p. 99) will solve this. The "hard" part is getting 8 ranks of Heal, which is not all that tricky really.

- Exalted Feat: Blessing of the Seven Sisters; PGtF, realmsspecific; gives a bunch of cleric spells (mostly from BoED) in exchange for a feat

- Full Prestige:
Celestial Mystic, Exalted Arcanist, both BoED, gives access to celestial spells, which are basically divine spells which a special rider.

- Prestige Class dips:
rainbow servant 1 = good domain spells, which includes pearls like holy word, holy aura and blade barrier
- divine oracle 2 = oracle domain, which gives augury, divination, commune and some other stuff

- arcane disciple is the last resort, but it requires an appropriate WIS-score.
So to cast the level-8-domain-spell, you would need WIS 18 (and that again would require another booster item for WIS).

I'm sure there are way more than that, but that's what I remember so far.

Not a mechanism, but a workaround: You should be able to meet all of Ur-Priest's requirements at 6th level. For your first level feat, take Academic Priest. At 3rd, Spell Focus (Evil), and 6th Iron Will. Take your 7th and 8th levels in Ur-Priest, and take Mystic Theurge the rest of the way to 18th. Enjoy your Int-based dual casting, for the low low cost of 2 CL. If you're that worried about it, take Practiced Spellcaster and move on with your life.
