[QUOTE="tomBitonti, post: 2711044, member: 13107"] Hi, Is there a limit on what level spell can be affected by a metamagic feat that is cast in its own slot while benefiting from a metamagic feat, because the cost of applying the metamagic feat was paid for using turning attempts via divine metamatic? For example, given a 5'th cleric (so, slots at 0, 1, 2 and 3) with divine metamagic applied to reach spell (add 30' to the range of a touch spell; cast the spell in a slot two levels higher), to what level spells can the feat be applied? All of them? Only 0 and 1? The reason for the limitation would be that the normal application of reach spell (for this particular caster) is limited to 0 and 1 level spells, as applying the feat to 2 and 3 spells would push the slot above those available. This is a house rule I have been using, based on the limitations of the 'sudden' metamagic feats (if I remember correctly). However, I haven't seen any official ruling that actually imposes such a limitation. I ask because I recently realized that metamagic doesn't change the level of the spell being cast, only the slot necessary to cast the spell. This would seem to argue against the limitation.
