Arrowsplit is a spell that makes from your arror/bolt 1d4+1 identical arrows/bolts and you have to make for each arrow/bolt a seperate attack roll.

How is it with sneak attaks? Do I make 1d4+1 sneak attacks with this spell? Would be kind of overpowert...

And what is with Enchancement? Do I add +1d6 fire dmg for each arrow?

That could be (1d4+1)x1d6Fire Damage + 1d4+1 Sneak Attacks. :eek:

Waaaay to powerfull...

EDIT: The spell is in Champions of ruin.

How is it with sneak attaks? Do I make 1d4+1 sneak attacks with this spell? Would be kind of overpowert... as with all volley's (with the specific exception of greater manyshot) you would only get sneak attack damage on the first arrow/bolt fired.

And what is with Enchancement? Do I add +1d6 fire dmg for each arrow?if fired from a bow/crossbow with the flaming ability yes, it can not be cast upon a magical arrow, the spell only affects normal masterwork arrows (if it also could target magical arrow it would say so).

so if you had a flaming short bow and qualified for a 2d6 sneak attack you would shoot an arrow, roll 1d4+1 to determine the number of actuall arrows, roll the first attack, if it hits you deal 1d6 plus 1d6 (Fire) plus 2d6 (sneak attack, for each other arrow that hits you would deal 1d6 plus 1d6 (fire). assuming that you rolled a 5 (the maximum) for number of arrows and they all hit you would deal 7d6 plus 5d6 (Fire), although that is a rather unlikly situation.
