- All skill point requirements are gone and replaced with "Character Level N-3th", where N is the PrC's highest skill rank requirement. For example, Contemplative has a requirement of "Character level 10th" instead of "Knowledge (Religion) 13 ranks."
- All feat requirements are gone.
- Alignment requirements are gone, because, well, alignment requirements are stupid.
I realize that this improves the power of several PrCs (especially caster-oriented PrCs) whose main downside is that you have to take worthless feats to get in. For example IotSV is now an automatic choice for almost every caster without the feat requirements. However I see this as more of a benefit than a problem: The feat taxes did nothing to balance out the problematic PrCs in the first place. Meanwhile, there are many sub-par PrCs that are made much better with this laxing of requirements.
Here are my questions: In your opinion, are there any PrCs that are made problematic by these rules? (That is, they weren't problematic before.) Are there any PrCs that exist where getting rid of these requirements would cause them to break? Should I get rid of save bonus requirements as well?
