❄ Frigid Touch is the tooltip wonkey or is there no scaling?

[PuppYofDOOM]

Can it be affectrd by meta magic? I dont see any scaling numbers. Just a flat damage.

There are some spells that just outright have no scaling at all, such as frigid touch or molten orb.

It can be affected by metamagic, yes. Empower or Maximize or Reach or something would, for example, still work.

Frigid touch is still a decent spell even without scaling; it’s sneak attackable and auto-staggers whoever’s hit as long as they’re not outright immune to stagger.

I can’t see the appeal of molten orb though when scorching ray exists; that 1d6 splash damage is a poor trade off for multiple projectiles.

It's AoE persistent damage so triggers Elemental Barrage a lot. Unfortunately it's coded as a Weapon so Ember gets her Blackened Malus using it unlike Ray.

It was bugged last time I checked so you can't use meta on it (should be able to). It's still no save Stagger.
