Touch spell Metamagic

[はさきい]

Empower and Maximized metamagic for touch spell fixed yet?

[Sparrohawk]

Nope. Still bugged. At least on Magus, that is.

You can't apply some Metamagic effects to them; for instance, Maximise is greyed out in the Metamagic tab for touch spells like Vampiric Touch and Shocking Grasp. Granted, the bug isn't the end of the world for a useful Magus build, but it is still annoying as hell for optimising.

Huh fair, I have a feat that let's me empower 3 spells per rest, guess that bypasses the issue with the meta magic selection screen, thanks for the reply, will avoid meta magic!

That'd be metamagic arcana empower rather then the feat, where it works as an ability rather then in your spellbook.

Works fine with metamagic staves for me. Sorcerer.

Yeah, it's the feat with prepared casting that appears to have the problem. Maximising a spell via Magus Arcana seems to work fine as well.
