I've got another question guys!

I want to take a second level, bulls strength spell and apply the "extend spell" metamagic feat to it. This will make it a third level spell.

Can I take this "extend bulls strength" and apply the "empower spell" feat to it as well? My understanding is that an "empowered spell" occupies a slot 2 levels higher. So and "empowered, extended bulls strength" should take up a firth level slot. right?

Now lets say I wanted to take my "extended, empowered bulls strength" and apply the "maxamize spell" feat to it; per my understanding this would take up an 8th level slot but it would grant me a + 7.5 strength bonus all day.

I have tried to do this but can't seem to get it right. I am new at this game so any help or answers would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance for you help...you guys always come through!

No, it can't be done. The metemagic is applied to the base spell, not the altered one. So you can only apply one effect per sepll.
