[QUOTE="HEL Pit Fiend, post: 274503, member: 5971"] Lets say that you are correct, which I'm not sure you are. Enhance spell wins over Empower ONLY on spells of LESS than 15 dice, and then only by small amounts. example 1: ---fireball 10d6 ---enhance +10d6 (new base 20d6) ---empower +10d6 that = 30d6 triple stacked empower = 10d6 x 2.5 = 25d6 30d6 vs 25d6 empower loses example 2: ---cone of cold 15d6 ---enhanced +10d6 (new base 25d6) ---empower +12.5d6 that = 37.5d6 triple stacked empower = 15d6 x 2.5 = 37.5d6 37.5d6 vs 37.5d6 empower ties example 3: ---chain lightning 20d6 ---enhanced +10d6 (new base 30d6) ---empower +15d6 that = 45d6 triple stacked empower = 20d6 x 2.5 = 50d6 45d6 vs 50d6 empower wins example 4: ---horrid wilting 25d8 ---enhanced +10d8 (new base 35d8) ---empower +17.5d8 that = 52.5d8 triple stacked empower = 25d8 x 2.5 = 62.5d8 52.5d8 vs 62.5d8 empower wins Also note, for all those spells to get maximum effect of Enhance Spell feat your level must equal the dice of damage. For example, for horrid wilting you must be 35th level, whereas for triple empowering you can be as low as 25th. I still put my money on Empower [/QUOTE]
