Wow, that's some threadamancy. You're going to make me remember what I said in 2005? Okay then.

Now, let's see... ah yes.

That answer was in response to the first post in this thread, asking about an Extended Persistent spell. If Extend is applied first, followed by Persistent, the spell lasts 24 hours. But if Persistent is applied first, with Extend applied second, Extend doubles the spell duration. Since the duration is now 24 hours, Extend makes it 48 hours.

Clear now?

Oh, and welcome to the boards.

Thanks. That does clear that up. I did read through the thread, but I must have either missed the Extend thing, or forgotten that it was mentioned earlier in the thread (there's a lot of posts in this thread). ^_^; Ooops. You'd still be quite limited in the level of the spell in which you could do this too though. Since Persistent is +6 and Extend an additional +1... So at best you'd do this to, what a 2nd level spell (this is not including the possibilities that: you were playing with Epic levels, had any of the potential class features, and/or feats to reduce metamagic feat adjustments).

But wow... a 48-hour spell effect could be pretty useful - and I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed or against the spririt of the rules. It's a very powerful spell (when all's said and done) and uses a high enough level slot (once adjusted) to cover it.

And thanks for the welcome!
