General Rules: Bardic Performance Effects - Effect Increase

Effect Increase (from Path of Magic)

• Affinity: Bardic Instrumentals.


• Cost: One spell slot of no more than three levels lower than the affected spell.


• Perform DC: 15.


• Effect: When this effect is activated, the targeted spell's caster level increases by one for purposes of determining any level-dependent effects (such as duration, damage, or range) generated by a spell. The virtual level increase has no other effect, positive or negative, upon the targeted spell.


• Miscast: When the bard flubs this performance, the caster's level is treated as if it were one lower for the purpose of calculating the affected spell's level-dependent effects. This virtual level decrease has no other effect, positive or negative, upon the spell being cast.
