That's the part you're misunderstanding, Oma.  Translation: Levels in wizard are not required, but should you have them [continue rest of feat description].


yes the feat describe 2 times that are wizards spell and you can use your paladin slot but never say about CL then your wizard CL is 0 because you don't have any wizard level.


It's not a feat; it's an ACF.  If you're going to troll, at least try to troll about the right thing.

FEAT



Sword of the Arcane Order


( Champions of Valor, p. 34)

[General]


Members of your military order have a special connection with arcane magic.


Prerequisite


or ranger 4th of Mystra; member of the Knights of the Mystic Fire (see page 102), or the Swords of the High One (see page 104), Paladin 4th of Azuth or Mystra, the Order of the Shooting Star (see Knights of the Mystic Fire, page 102),



Benefit


You can use your paladin and ranger spell slots to prepare wizard spells. You must have a minimum Intelligence score of 10 + the spell's level to prepare it, and the save DC of the spell is equal to 10 + your Int modifi er (as if you were a wizard). These wizard spells can be taken either from your spellbook (if you have one) or from another character's spellbook (though in the latter case you must decipher the writing in the book and succeed on a Spellcraft check to prepare the spell, just as a wizard using a borrowed spellbook; see Wizard Spells and Borrowed Spellbooks, page 178 of the Player's Handbook, for details). If you also have levels in wizard, your wizard caster level is treated as the sum of your wizard, paladin, and ranger class levels.


Special


Azuth has a paladin order called the Swords of the High One. Mystra has a paladin order called the Knights of the Mystic Fire and a closely allied group of rangers called the Order of the Shooting Star. Members of all three of these groups can select this feat as long as they are at least 4th level in their respective order's primary class.

Whadya know?  You were trolling about the right thing.  


After reading the entirety of the feat, I think your interpretation is reasonable if going only by RAW.  If going by RAI, however, it makes the feat useless for rangers or paladins that don't have wizard levels.  Do you think that's the way the feat was intended?  The last sentence implicitly (though not explicitly) says that your interpretation is not the intended one.

this because the feat say that you stack your paladin level with your wizar levels but if you going to say that not then under the rules you don't have any wizard caster level for your spells.

You didn't answer my question.  Is this feat intended to be usable by rangers and/or paladins that do not have any wizard levels?  It's a pretty simple and straightforward "yes/no" question.

So it's intended to be used by rangers and/or paladins without wizard levels, but your interpretation renders it useless for them.  Interesting.

Draco, if you want a reasonable interpretation of "if you also have levels in wizard, your wizard caster level is treated as the sum of your wizard, paladin, and ranger class levels," I'll say you just add up your levels in all of those classes.  So what if you happen to be a Wizard 0 and just have Paladin and Ranger levels to add into the equation I don't see why you actually need a positive number of levels in the wizard class.

Yes, useless.  What happens when you cast those wizard spells you prepared in your paladin slots?

If you have wizard levels, yes.

Personally, I think it is a poorly written feat that is intended primarily for Wizard/Paladin or Ranger gish builds, but it can be used by single class paladins or rangers.  I think the wizard spells cast from your paladin slots are intended to be arcane spells that use your paladin CL.
