[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1690764, member: 478"] Well, it explicitly mentions Quicken Spell, however, which would be rather pointless, if the use of the feat would not change the activation time. ;) Casting a spell is also a standard action (as per the PHB). Casting a [i]quickened[/i] spell is a free action (not for a sorcerer, mind you). Casting a [i]quickened[/i] spell from a wand via Metamagic Spell Trigger is just the same. It also allows to cast a spell with a level higher than 4 from a wand, which is normally impossible. ;) Why? Because it changes the "normal" rules for wands! Arcane Preparation or Metamagic Spell Trigger (see above) or Instant Metamagic. Of course, [i]shapechanging[/i] into a Choker or [i]polymorphing[/i] into one with Assume Supernatural Ability (Quickness) would also work. Or simply be a Psion, then you can manifest three powers each turn without such hindrances. :p Bye Thanee [/QUOTE]
