Not to hijack, but I wish that Arelith would port over some more prestige classes instead of fiddling about with "synergy" between things like Blackguard, Cavalier, etc. Where are all the cool 3/3.5e Prestige classes like Mystic Theurge, Eldritch Knight, etc. ?
One can always ask Irongron and apply to become a code contributor to help speed up the process of discussing, designing, balancing, and coding for the prestige classes.
Yeah maybe if I had the time to do so and any familiarity with coding I could.
We can always have the time if we manage it well enough, otherwise, we wouldn't be here discussing something we all love and play.
The willingness to learn a new skill set and not impose a handicap on self, however, is far more optional than most realize.

I feel that any class that's added has to bring a distinct playstyle, theme, and mechanic to it.
That being said...
1) Artificer - Infuses items with bonuses primarily
2) Psion - We have psionic energy types. There are different playstyles and themes psionics could allow for. It'd be distinct from magic, likely work in anti-magic fields, but have its own restrictions and capitalize on some of the new damage types
This could include - Soul Knife, Psychic Warrior, etc.
3) Archmage - A PRC that might make wizards a bit less kinda bad?
4) Red Wizard - a PRC that might make wizards a bit less kinda bad?
5) Binder - Distinct from warlocks, binding to different patrons gives different bonuses at different times
6) Truenamer - This would be a class that could technically function vastly differently from most magic classes because it focuses around words and the powers of words.
7) Shadow Caster - Distinctly different from one who uses the shadow weave, this focuses on special secrets that allows them to do what they do
8) Beguiler - Making illusion magic viable!

Alright, Monday afternoon you're going to start giving me lessons on coding for NWN/Arelith. You too, Mattamue.

That give me memories of the millions of prc classes that I never tried
Child of night, that was fun to be transparent lol
Some more buff to pure , 4HD casters maybe? epic spells for pure wizard/sourcer pls, the one I loved most has permanent haste and invisiblity on caster. There are so many others that are cool and give wizards something...
Skullclan hunter, I never know why but I think this is fun

Better yet, the three classes from Tome of Battle, Swordsage, Crusader, and Warblade. (or just one of them, they are so cool.)
