Empower Bug?

[LunarSquirrel]

Alright, so let's say I'm reading this right:

I have empowered owls wisdom loaded. The spell normally does 1d4+1 Wisdom increase. The description says that I multiply the result by 1.5 for my new value. In this case, say I get a total of 5 on the roll, 1.5 brings the value to 7.5. 8 if rounded up: 7 if rounded down.

Sound right so far?

Alright, so I'm casting empowered owls wisdom in game and it's topping out @ a +6 increase. In the actions menu it's saying Metamagic Spell Empowered x 1. Now if that were the case, it would still only max at 5, but it's definitely not the minimum +7 that should be the case.

I looked over Wiki/Forums to see if there was a change, but nothing. Am I reading the description wrong and is +6 the correct value, or is this a legit issue?

I wouldn't make such a fuss about it normally, but that 1 Wis is a big part of this build. Thanks.

Could be.. if your wearing an ice amulet 6 wis then all you can get is 6 more wis. Max stat can be boosted is 12. I dunno... i dont useually emp stat spells.

It multiplies your dice roll only:
(1d4 x 1.5) + 1
And it rounds down.

Results:
(1 x 1.5) + 1 = 2.5 rounds to 2
(2 x 1.5) + 1 = 4
(3 x 1.5) + 1 = 5.5 rounds to 5
(4 x 1.5) + 1 = 7

If you are only getting six then as posted you probably already have +6 wis from other magical sources... cap is +12 over your base (white) stat.

DOH! Knew it was something simple.

Owned by common sense once more. The ammy I've got on is currently a +7

Thanks for the heads up.
