Sculpt Spell Insight/Question
« on: January 11, 2012, 08:50:29 PM »
Just noticed something interesting about GOD's favorite feat : it doesn't change the Saving Throw line, even if it turns a RTA into an AoE.  Was there errata to that at all?

You can modify an area spell by changing the area's shape to either a
Are there any RTA spells that have also have an area?

I have a question about Sculpt Spell that I'll also post here, if you don't mind.

What happens if you Sculpt a spell that affects multiple, independent areas, like Firebrand? Do I get to modify them all? So I could have (for example) 60 ten foot cubes of flaming death for a 6th level spell slot?

Valid query, and it would seem so.  I already knew Sculpt Spell + Hail of Stone + Reserves of Strength = playing Nazi DM (rocks fall, you die), it would be pretty sweet to do it with fire now, too.

EDIT : Is there a way to force an AoE onto a spell?

Depends on the spell.

I think there's either a metamagic or an item that can turn rays into cones. I don't know any other examples though.
