Suggestions for multiclass for human warmage?

A magic missile does d4+1. An empowered MM does (d4+1)*1..5 not d4*1.5 +1. As I recall, that is actually the example used in the empowered feat.
Maybe it's different in the PHB, but IDHMBOM, so SRD it is...

EMPOWER SPELL [METAMAGIC]
Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of an empowered spell are increased by one-half.
Saving throws and opposed rolls are not affected, nor are spells without random variables. An empowered spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell’s actual level.
The +1 of the Magic Missile isn't variable. Anything with a "d" in front of it is, and that's what will be empowered. So a 7th level mage shooting four 1d4+1 missiles will end up with: 4d4 + 4 + 1/2*(4d4).

But yeah, like you said, the edge won't be touched.

It is kinda different in the PHB. It uses magic missile as an example and there they multiply the +1 by 1.5. That's why I thought the edge was multiplied as wel.

Regardless, Empower is still a nice choice, I feel, because of, well, is sounds cool for starters.
