Feat for touch spells????

First Post
Does anyone know of a feat that turns a touch spell into a ranged spell (as I remember one made it with a range of close)??? I'm working up a true necromancer and most of the great spells have a range of 'touch'....
Thnaks in advance for any help!

So, with this feat on a touch range spell, can you cast, move, then range touch? Like cast, move up to corner, touch around corner?

I don't believe so. You only get two actions normally. You could move and then cast the spell around the corner, but not cast move and then target. Identifying your target is a part of casting the spell. You cannot start a spell, hold it while you move, and then release it around a corner. At least, not as far as I know....

The Reach Spell is a metamagic feat that increase the normal spell level two. The effect changes the spells range from touch to ranged touch. So you cannot hold the charge like you do for normal touch spells. When you cast the spell, you have to have a target in mind (like scorching ray).

Mirivor: I think that's wrong, although I cannot find the reference in the SRD. I thought I read somewhere in the PHB that you can cast a touch spell (ie. slay living), move your speed and touch someone, which doesn't draw an AoO. I'm at work, so I can't find the reference. Although, it's vague enough in my head, I may be mis-remembering.
 


My personal bugaboo with the D&D3.X rules:
Touch Spells in Combat: Many spells have a range of touch. To use these spells, you cast the spell and then touch the subject, either in the same round or any time later. In the same round that you cast the spell, you may also touch (or attempt to touch) the target. You may take your move before casting the spell, after touching the target, or between casting the spell and touching the target. You can automatically touch one friend or use the spell on yourself, but to touch an opponent, you must succeed on an attack roll.
Emphasis mine.
