The Bane Spell


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

I had a quick question regarding Bane with a Metamagic feat modifying it.

Bane

EFFECT
Range 50 ft.
Area 50-ft.-radius burst, centered on you
Duration 1 min./level
Saving Throw Will negates; Spell Resistance yes

DESCRIPTION
Bane fills your enemies with fear and doubt. Each affected creature takes a -1 penalty on attack rolls and a -1 penalty on saving throws against fear effects. Bane counters and dispels bless.

Therefore, if I use a Metamagic feat to modify Bane, which states "You cannot use this feat on a spell with an instantaneous duration or a spell that does not target a creature or object, " would it work on Bane? Thank you.


No, it will not work. While Bane affects creatures, it does not target them, it is a target less AOE effect.
