    Default Earliest Non-Cheesy PrC Entry?

    Besides Survivor, what other PrCs can be entered at very early levels?

    Not looking for cheese, kobolds, early-entry tricks or related shenanigans--just PrCs which are feasible to enter before the typical sixth level or so.

    There's one where the binder PrCs with dual casting which let you enter with 1 single level of binder, improved binding, and 3 levels of a full caster class which gets lvl 2 spells by 3rd level. Thats a PrC being qualified for entry by level 4.

    Anima Mage - 1 binder 3 wizard x anima mage

    Theres also one in MoI where you take the feat shape soulmeld 3 times while as an azurin cleric and with 2 flaws take 2 incarnum feats to get you an essentia pool big enough to qualify. this PrC is qualified for entry by level 3.

    Sapphire Hierarch - 3 cleric x sapphire Hierarch

    That same prestige class can be entered with no levels of Binder at all, with the 2 feats that let you bind a vestige for limited benefits without being a binder.
    If my text is blue, I'm being sarcastic.But you already knew that, right?

    You can take Stoneblessed after two levels of almost any class. The book says that it's specifically designed that way, so as not to interfere too much with a build.

    If you're willing to worship an elder evil you can enter Kinslayer at first level.
    If you see me talking about Shaper Psions, assume that anything not poison immune within 100 feet will be dead.

    Speaking of which, you can enter racial paragon classes at 1st level.

    Knight of the Raven is able to be entered after 4 with the right class (pretty much Paladin or Ranger).

    Isn't there one in BoED that you just die and get risen back up alive?

    Alignment: Any good
    Feats: Nimbus of Light
    Base Save Bonuses: Fort +2, Ref +2, Will +2.
    Skills: Any one skill 9 ranks, Speak Language (Celestial).
    Feats: Any one other exalted feat.
    Special: The character must have suffered martyrdom (see Chapter 2) and must not have been returned to life. As a special feature of this prestige class, the character rises with the abilities of a 0-level risen martyr added to the character's previous abilities. When the character earns enough experience points to advance another level, he must become a 1st-level risen martyr.

    Skill requirements stop that sadly from entering this as a 1st level monk (Or other good save class.)

    It's mild cheese, though.
