Metamagic: Twinned Spell

Metamagic: Twinned Spell is a toggleable passive feature used by Sorcerers. This ability allows Sorcerers to target two creatures with certain Spells.

Description

Spells that only target 1 creature can target an additional creature.

Costs 1  Sorcery Point per Spell Slot level used. Cantrips also cost 1  Sorcery Point.

For spells that don't shoot a projectile, the targets need to be close enough together.

How to learn

Classes:

• Class level 2: Sorcerer

Used by creatures:

• Mizora

Notes

• When twin casting a spell, two separate targets must be chosen. The same creature cannot be targeted twice by the same twinned spell.
• This passive can be used with  Drakethroat Glaive to enchant two weapons (requires 3  Sorcery Points).
• The following spells cannot be twinned:
  •  Chain Lightning. However, this restriction does not apply to the version of Chain Lightning granted by  Markoheshkir.
  • Summoning spells.
  • Spells that are able to target multiple creatures, even if those spells are only used to target one creature. This includes spells such as  Magic Missile and  Eldritch Blast (after 5th level).
  • Spells that affect an area. This includes spells like  Ice Knife which are single target but with an additional area of effect. The only exceptions are  Hail of Thorns and  Lightning Arrow.
  • A spell that targets the caster themselves, even if it only affects the caster.

Bugs

• Due to the lack of a TargetRadius check for projectile spells, Twinned Spell is compatible with the ranged version of certain spells while also being incompatible with the melee version. An example of this is  Ensnaring Strike.
