Metamagic Feats

[Ogrork the Mighty]

Has anyone tried a system where you take 1 feat that gives you a tree of the different metamagic feats at certain levels? Say silent spell at 1st, still spell at 2nd, etc.

The spells must still be prepared as normal. Such a system would provide a lot of versatility at the cost of 1 feat rather than a bunch of metamagic feats that no one takes.

Hm, ime people do take metamagic feats. In my campaign, there are pcs with quicken, extend, mass, bestow, and maximize spell... in the game I play in I have silent, extend, maximize, and energy substitution.

I think metamagic is cool, and do kinda wish that it got more play; but I don't know that rolling the feats up is how I'd want to approach it personally. I think they're all good enough to take.
