You are adding an equation that the spell itself does not explicitly state.Unlike all other uses of Empower, rolling an 8 and increasing it to 12 does nothing for Prismatic Spray since the D8 roll determines variable numeric selection of effect, not variable numeric effect.You are adding a sentence in order to get the result you want. But, the only D8 roll in Prismatic Spray determines selection of effect and that D8 does not subtract 6. The fact that the number of rays can be increased is irrelevant since that is an effect. Two rays.Your point was imaginative, but it does not follow the standard use of Empower (increasing the result of the die roll by 50%).In order for your interpretation to work, you have to add a D8-6 minimum 1 equation to the spell description which is not there.</blockquote>
