I'm incredibly happy that my group found this ruleset, and our GM is running a game with this now, but I have a couple of questions about going into the Arithmetician class.
To enter you need to be able to cast 2nd level black and white spells, and have 7 ranks in Knowledge(Mathematics). If I took seven levels of scholar (putting a rank into know(math) each level), I should be good to enter the prestige class right?
If so, how the the MP per Day / Spells Known work? Am I able to increase my mp and spells known twice once with scholar as the black magic class, and once with scholar as the white magic class? It seems like I shouldn't be able to, but as written I can't see why not.
In addition to that, if I took four levels in scholar and three levels in black mage, can I use Scholar as the white magic class and Black Mage as the black magic class?
Under the Mathematical casting, does the four option cover all prime numbers (like Final Fantasy Tactics) and check to see if the Situation, or do you choose one prime number and divide your chosen Situation by it as normal? (It seems much more like the second, but I've been reading and rereading the stuff on this wiki so much my brain has turned to mush.)
For the capstone ability of Arithmetician (Soul Bind), which Number of mine do I check the damage against? Its written as if it's a singular number.
Also I guess this one is more asking opinion as opposed to rule clarification, but would any of the GM's that have had a player take the arithmetician class allow them to choose "Number of Squares from me" as a valid situation?
Thanks to anyone that reads/answers these questions! Our game has been going great so far and we are all really enjoying this system!
