07-10-07, 12:30 PM Is there an equivalent Feat to 'Shot On The Run' for Spellcasting?

Does perhaps 'Shot On The Run' qualify?

If not, what might be the prerequisites for such a feat (5 ranks in Concentration, maybe)?

Or should this be reserved for a capstone to a prestige class?

That is to say, how does this interact with metamagic for spontaneous casters?

My guess is they can't use this feat while using metamagic without some casting time reduction tweak.

07-10-07, 05:23 PM The Sorceror is free to take Accelerate Metamagic, or other feats that lets them apply metamagics without extending the casting time.

They are not really screwed.

Not all feats are for every character.

There are quite a few good feats just for Sorceror. For example, Still Spell and Silent Spell are pretty much just for Sorcerors (I.E. it takes a really stupid wizard to take those spells, you never know when you will need them, but they are great for a Sorceror).

07-10-07, 05:24 PM yeah, still spell is only for dedicated gish type wizards, who dont mind ALL thier spells being stilled or something.

My guess is they can't use this feat while using metamagic without some casting time reduction tweak.A Sorcerer with Rapid Metamagic, Quicken Spell, and Mobile Spellcasting on a battlemap grid with any dungeon/terrain features that grant total cover is a very nasty thing indeed :mage:

Throw in typical sorcerer-adventurer spells like fly, haste, greater mirror image and arcane fusion/greater arcane fusion and things get increasingly dire for the opposition.
