[QUOTE="GuardianLurker, post: 272902, member: 786"] [b]Analysis complete[/b] Whoogh! That was a lot of numbers. OK, first, here's the raw data : [url]http://patriot.net/~glurker/DnD/Analysis/spelllprog.html[/url] There are some pretty hefty graphics on that page, so it will probably take a while to load. (In fact, unless you're on broadband, you probably shouldn't bother...) Basic upshot: The feat in its current form seems to produce the smoothest curves. The semi-spell casters gain a little more benefit from the pair, since they can gain multiple metamagic spell slots per level from it, while the pure spellcasters will only gain one. Final numbers represent something very close to the maximal progression, as I calculated as if the character spent all of his epic slots on the two feats. Practical spell progression will be much less than this. Even at this "rapid" pace, spell progression is about twice as slow as non-epic levels.
