02-25-08, 10:32 AM I am about to begin playing a Wizard 5/Incantatrix 9 in an online campaign soon. One of the other players has decided on playing a warlock/cleric/eldritch theurge.

What I want to know is this: If he uses his ability to mix in eldritch blast with a spell, can I attempt to use cooperative metamagic on it, and if I do, do I totally ignore the eldritch blast effect or will that get enhanced as well?

02-25-08, 12:10 PM Eldritch Spellweave makes casting the spell a full-round action. If the other caster is going to cast the same spell "simultaneously" I would say that he has to also devote a full-round to that casting. Other than that, I see no problem.

If the essence requires a saving throw, use the normal save DC for that essence. Based on this, I would not make any changes to DCs related to the essence, and apply them only to the spell itself, if applicable.

02-25-08, 12:19 PM I actually meant the incantatrix's class ability, which allows you to modify another's spell with a metamagic feat you know with a successful Spellcraft check. Thanks for the input though :)

maybe you meant he was playing a eldritch disciple? eldritch theurge doesn't advance divine spellcasting classes.

02-28-08, 06:31 AM I would say no, you can not apply any metamagics to an eldritch blast. It may work for the cleric spell but not the eldritch blast and then the metamagiced spell wouldn't/couldn't be added to the eldritch blast. It's quite likely I'm wrong.
