The description says that any spell prepared with this feat with the Fire Descriptor is added a +2 fire damage per spell level, and, if the save is failed, the target also Catches Fire. My question is, what about Scorching Ray?? This spell, as we all know, does not allow a Save because it's a Ray, and it has the Fire Descriptor... thanks in advance!
