Help needed...feat to increase damage cap for one spell

[Andrew muscat]

Hi

I seem to recall mention of a pathfinder feat similar to intensified spell, but which affects only one selected spell without increasing its level. Can anyone point me in its direction?

Thanks!

What you are probably thinking about is the usage of the traits 'Magical Lineage' and 'Wayang Spellhunter'.

They both have the ability: Pick one spell when you choose this trait. When you apply metamagic feats to this spell that add at least 1 level to the spell, treat its actual level as 1 lower for determining the spell’s final adjusted level.

So the classic build Magus applies Magical Lineage to his Shocking Grasps and then can prepare Intensified Shocking Grasps as a level 1 spell.

It was a specific feat which allows you to increase the cap for one spell by 5 levels without changing the level of the spell. The spell has to be selected at the time you take the fear and cannot be changed.

Maybe I dreamt it....

Kinda sounds homebrewed. Most traits that increase caster level do so by 1. It is mostly accepted that a feat is about double a trait in power, meaning that a trait would be expected to have a +2 to a specific spell. That being the case +5 is likley either house ruled or a 3PP. I do not know as much about spell caster feats, so I am more than willing to be proven wrong.

The only one I can think of that has 5 is Intisified Spell which increases max damage dice by 5, but that is obviously not what you were asking about.
