Enlarge Spell feat error

Postby RiTz21 on Thu Nov 19, 2009 10:38 am

While integrating the Enlarge Spell feat, I noticed an error.

Consider the description:
Benefit: You can alter a spell with a range of close, medium, or long to increase its range by 100%. An enlarged spell with a range of close now has a range of 50 ft. + 5 ft./level,...


This Feat doubles the ranges of spells (i.e. increase its range by 100%). This is not true for the Close range, when the caster level is an ODD number (because of rounding):

Example using a level 1 caster:
Close range = 25' +0' = 25'

Now, with this feat enabled (see bold formula highlighted above):
50' + 5' = 55'

As you can see, we were expecting an increase of 100% of the 25' range (expected value 50'). But the formula above gives us a bit more then a 100% increase (55')!

The Correct formula for Close range should be:
50 ft. + 10 ft./ 2 levels
