[QUOTE="kjenks, post: 2903312, member: 12892"] You may think that's "obvious" and "of course," but consider a few other combinations: Heighten Spell + Maximize + Fireball. What's the save DC? What's the damage? Silent Spell + Widen Spell + Fireball. Is the whole spell silent? Quicken Spell + Empower Spell + Magic Missile. Is only part of the spell cast as a swift action? Check out the Main 3.5e FAQ, page 25 of the latest update. It says that Energy Admixture + Maximize Spell + Scorching Ray deals double its maximized damage. On Andy Collins' board, he said that the PH rule about Empower Spell + Maximize Spell is an exception to the general rule on metamagic feat stacking. If that Emp + Max example from the PH were applied to Energy Admixture + Maximize Spell + Scorching Ray, it would deal max damage of the base [Fire] type and you'd need to roll the dice for the other energy type. But the FAQ says that's not what you do. [/QUOTE]
