Okay so the feat Elemental Commixture allows for your spells to be combined with others, It also names a couple of mixtures. However I doesn't seem to mention if the descriptors within a spell would be combined, or in the case of multiple ones from the original spell.
The steam caster feat allows you to turn any spell with the fire descriptor to be treated as if it had the water descriptor. Now lets say I commixture it with an earth/acid spell.
would I get;
a) 1 commixture benefit: Earth-Fire
b) 2 commixture benefits: Earth-Fire and Water-Earth
c) 3 commixture benefits; Earth-Fire, Water-Earth and Fire-Water
The feat doesn't seem to explain all that well how to handle spells with a multitude of descriptors. However I'm considering a Undine character, It seems a solid choice from a roleplaying perspective so I'd like to know about its applications a bit more.
d) One commixture effect, which can be any combination of the descriptors in the two spells.
The feat says you get one effect "...the combination of spells also creates a unique secondary effect depending on the elemental descriptors of the commixed spells."
The feat does not say how you choose when you qualify for more than one, so that's up the the DM (I'd just let the player casting the main spell choose).
I hate debating semantics, however the original reason for me wondering was because in that sentence unique doesn't mean singular per se. Thanks

ThanksI don't care about the word unique, I care about the singular wording "a ... effect". If you could get more than one it would need to be worded to allow for multiple effects.
Not that my opinion is necessarily correct, it's just my best interpretation of the written rules and why, which you can feel free to find convincing, refute with a better argument, or completely disregard.
I did thank you, I merely explained why I personally asked the question to begin with, I don't really understand your response.

Steam Caster turns the spell into a Full-Round Action, so it can't be used with Elemental Commixture as it requires a standard action.
As to the combination of elements question... I'm honestly not sure. I would say ask your DM before you use it who gets to decide. Tentatively, I would say the feat user but YMMV.
