How do you use metamagic with Anyspell? By RAW, any arcane spell of second level or lower goes into a third level slot. Can you then put some extended first level spell into the slot?

Also, is there any way to, with a 10th level cleric (pure Cleric, no PrCs) cast spell off the assassin, paladin, or ranger list? It's level 3, so I can't use Anyspell (and I'm one level shy of Greater Anyspell).

What spell you mean in your second question?

Jun 16, 2008 15:19:30 Metamagic Rods should still work just fine with Anyspell.

UMD with a scroll or wand will work with spells from other class lists. Maybe your DM will let you prepare a Heightened Anyspell to copy an arcane spell of one level lower than the spell slot used, though you still won't be able to mimic divine spells from the paladin or ranger lists that way.

Assume here that the DM in question is going to shoot down anything even vaguely dubious.
