Hi,

does a character need to already have the metamagic feat (e.g. Empower Spell) he wishes to apply the Divine Metamagic feat to or does Divine Metamagic just emulate the effect of the desired feat?

So the question basically is: Must he spend two feats (Divine Metamagic and the desired feat) or just one feat (Divine Metamagic) to use Divine Metamagic (with the effect to apply a specific metamagic feat to a spell)?

And another question which just popped up in my mind:
Does applying Divine Metamagic to a spell and casting this spell take a Full Round Action or a Standard Action?

Applying a metamagic feat to a spell and casting this spells takes a Full Round Action, but does this count for Divine Metamagic as well?

From the Complete Divine Errata found on Wizard's website.

Page 80: Divine Metamagic feat
The boldface text needs to be added to the Benefit
paragraph of the feat description:

When you take this feat, choose a metamagic feat that
you have. This feat applies only to that metamagic feat.
As a free action, you can take the energy from turning
or rebuking undead and use it to apply a metamagic feat
to divine spells that you know. . . .
