Hax Spell [Metamagic] Benefit: All typed bonuses granted by the adjusted spell become untyped bonuses. A Haxed spell uses up a spell slot ??? levels higher than the spell’s actual level. Too good? Not good enough? It seems to be in that nebulous area. And I have no idea where to set the adjustment.

On the other hand, getting a magic item with an unusual bonus type is double the price, which seems to be on par with a slightly lower adjustment. The best way to judge, if you can find it, is to try to find spells that grant a bonus other than enhancement to anything.

Hax Greater Resistance? Hax Greater Heroism? If I recall correctly, a couple of years ago I offered a similar metamagic feat in that now closed :weep: 3E forum we frequented. It wasn't well received for precisely the reasons of the above first three spells.

Even then, I could see some rather potent uses for this. Even as small as making Tensor's Transformation awesome on gishes who already have enhancement bonus items. I've been playing epic recently, so I don't remember what balance is... I can't offer much more help.
