1) Twinned Spell. It says you can target a 2nd creature when casting a spell that targets only one creature. Would something like Magic Missile qualify, provided you had used all of the 1st spell's missiles on the same target? If so, would you then have to put all of the twinned one's on the 2nd target, or distribute at will as normal? What about a spell that specifies 'Target', but then has an effect of spreading to others (Chain Lightening, I'm looking at you)?
2) Given that Twinned Spell is probably the best (for just 1 point you basically get another first level spell slot - at half the cost you'd normally spend!), what would you say is the next best one for a low level sorc?
- Careful Spell (could AE more easily, but still would damage allies on some spells - just half damage instead of possibly full)
- Distant Spell (but how often is max range an issue?)
- Empowered Spell (rerolls can be nice)
- Quickened Spell (definitely good for a quick damage burn)
- Subtle Spell (the reserve 'oh sh#^!' option for dealing with grapples, silence, etc.)
I don't expect to be buffing, so wouldn't go for Extended Spell, & Heightened Spell is just too costly until later levels, I think (or maybe take right away so it's available right at Fireball level instead of later?).
