Alright. I need some input for my storm-based sorcereress. She specializes in metamagic and I need to pick some feats. I am currently 3rd level. Here are some of the things that you may need to know:
- We are playing with spell points. I get spell points equal to a percentage of my total daily spell potential (in points) every day. This percentage starts at 98% at first level and degrades 2% every level thereafter. The percentages don't really start to hit until 5th or so. Right now, I have about 12 spell points.
- Metamagic feats are applied spontaneously as a full round action and the caster burns points equal to the spell's level after the feat is applied, in addition to increasing damage dice with points. The damage increase is just like in Unearthed Arcana and the level cap still applies.
- We are getting a feat every even level instead of every 3. This is a nice boost that is not grossly overpowering.
- I am allowed to use feats from all official generic sources and Forgotten Realms. No psionics handbook, Dragonlance, Etc.
So far, I have selected Enlarge, Extend, Energy Subsitition (Electricity), Sculpt, and Heighten Spell.
My character is a storm -flavored sorcereress and that flavor takes precedence over all other aspects, including mechanically and efficiency. Her spells are all wind, electricity, air, or sonic-based. All of my known spells either have those descriptors or are ALWAYS cast with energy sub.
My future selections look like such: Empower, Maximize, Explosive (Love this one!), Energy Admixture, and ????
Any advice to be had from the collective Enworld mind? I am going for the Stormcaster PrC in Stormwrack. There are a lot of feats to choose from, and I am at a loss as to what ot select. Any help? Should I ditch energy sub? I have, afterall, not selected any spells with energy descriptors other than those listed above. Should I pick up Spell Focus: Evocation? Also, if I ditch Energy Sub, then I cannot Admixture. Should I take Twin Spell? Would you guys recommend staying away from the +4 modifier feats until later?
I am just looking for a few opinions. Constructive, please.
Thanks! Later!
