    Daniel - 2017-02-23

    Instructions: Just do how much of the below you feel comfortable with.

    Simple Instructions
    -> Select a spell in the green box.
    -> Copy the description from the "Original" column to the "Better" column
    -> If there are any level dependent bits, replace it with what a 20th level caster would have. e.g. "The bolt deals 1d8 points of electricity damage + 1 point per 2 caster levels (maximum +10)." would become "The bolt deals 1d8+10 points of electricity damage."
    -> Rewrite the descriptions in the "Better" column so that it fits in the box. Try not to lose any important info if you can.
    -> Make a note if there any problems.

    Moderate Instructions:
    -> If the spell is "Like this spell, but different", try to copy in the description of the original spell, then make the relevent changes
    -> If there are any dice in the description "1d8+10", "10d6", etc, replace that part with a "<DICE>" tag and put the "1d8+10" etc, into the dice column.

    Complex Instructions:
    -> Replace the level dependent stuff with a <VAR> tag, and in the <VAR> tag describe the variable
    E.g. Magic Missile has "You get an extra missile for every two caster levels beyond first (to a max of 5)", would become "You fire <VAR> missiles" and put something like "1, with extra for every 2 caster levels, to max of 5"
    -> You can also do this for level dependent stuff in the DICE columns.
    E.g. "The bolt deals 1d8 points of electricity damage + 1 point per 2 caster levels (maximum +10)." becomes "The bolt deals <DICE> damage"; In the <DICE> column put "1d8+<VAR>"; in the <VAR> column put "1 per 2 caster levels (max +10)"

    The extra columns are used for applying various metamagic feats.

    Those were done, here is a new batch from Inner Sea Gods (+one from Faiths of Corruption)

    I have updated the instructions at the start to hopefully make things a little easier.

    Am I correct to think the first portion of "Copy the description from the "Original" column to the "Better" column" is already done?

    Yes, but I think I might need to post an update to that file as I already did the spells that were also in Faiths of Corruption.

    I have updated the file in the 2nd post. I've put "done" in column A for the spells I've already done.

    All right. I'll have a look.

    I'll be working on these now, let me know if you've already done some.
