As an ex participant and GM of three.5e, I cherished the metamagic feats, and I really feel dangerous for the truth that it is not out there in 5e. I wish to make an homebrewed model of them, however earlier than hollowing my gamers to play with it, I wish to make it reviewed, so I can rebalance it if one thing can break the sport simply.
Right here is the feat:
Metamagic spell (require the Spellcasting skill)
Select one Metamagic choice from the sorcerer Metamagic skill, and one among your recognized spell. You may apply this Metamagic choice to the spell once you solid it, however the spell slot you need to spend to solid it is the same as the spell stage + the price in Sorcery level of the Metamagic choice.
You may apply this feature to a cantrip, however you need to spend a spell slot of the extent of the price in Sorcery level of the Metamagic choice to do it.
You continue to can profit from the “casting the spell at increased stage” for the spell however the spend spell slot is handled as a spell slot of it stage – the price in Sorcery level of the Metamagic choice for the spell impact.
You may take this feat a number of time, however you need to select an different metamagic choice and/or one other spell
For the flavour, it has the identical penalities that the metamagic feats of three.5e have and the truth that you need to spend spell slot as an alternative of sorcery level and that you’re restricted to at least one spell per feat make the sorcerer nonetheless attention-grabbing. It could be underpowered, however that can also be why I am right here.
