Question on the Harper Scout
I heard the rule is only one prestige class per character, but can you take 2 if one of them is a harper scout. I just don't see anyone ever taking this class unless you can.

As it stands now I don't think there are any exceptions. Why would you want to take Harper Scout if it was an exception as opposed to as it is now?

NWN forums have a couple of really good builds with the harper scout (notably cleric/cot/harper). But as it stands, harper is a pretty weak choice for a prestige class as you can only take a whopping 5 levels then you run out of levels to take.
BTW: The harper scout eagle's splender stacks with the cleric and sorc spell of the same name, which raises spell DCs and abilities like divine might substantially.
I think if you wipe the sorc/pali combo, you will see quite a few sorc/harper 36/4s with spell DCs topping out at a ridiculous mega-44.
