That's 5 levels of PrCs you miss out on.  I'd just drop the third school, go conjuration/transmutation and enjoy my PrC goodness.  Cuz conjuration and transmutation are that good.

Still, being able to do all of that is rather impressive. And we all know there are DMs who ban multiclassing/PrCs or even enforce penalties on PrCs. This let's them play Wizard to 20 and not give a rat's ass.

And it is possible to get 3 of those PrC levels back, but it involves Legacy Champion. That and some people don't like banning Abjuration or Necromancy.

Good point.

  • Not cool enough for a custom title.

Hell, with ten levels of Wizard being actually decent, people might think twice about substituting a familiar.

Then again, maybe not.
I know gameology-fu.

Legacy Champion gives you 4 levels of class features from itself and three levels of spellcasting and familiar advancement for Wizard. You multiclass at Wizard 7 into a PrC of your choice for three levels, then into Legacy Champion and advance Wizard with it. You lose one level and have class benefits you want, not to mention a shiny little toy to use when you choose. Alternatively, you use Uncanny Trickster and multilcass at Wizard 8.

But this delays when you get the abilities, so I feel it is better to just go Wizard 10/PrC everything else.

Constant Gaurdian.  Very handy on a non combat drone like a rebuked Slaymate. 
Misread this and thought I had missed a new minion. Instead I find a feat ready made for a guy who's packing a crapload of Ghostly Symbionts and a Heroics spell.I bought It and was wondering what I would do with it....
Neat thing is, it doesnt say anything about taking an attack action. Too bad it will only work once, no stacking...

I plan on exploiting the Husk Vermin.Due to their Verminous nature, they will be Mindless, which suits me fine, being that I play a "ethical"  necromancers, and choose to not exploit sentient undead.Anyway, it also makes for a great target for Command Undead, Chained preferably.
