Rapid Metamagic
( Complete Mage, p. 46)[General]
You possess an uncanny mastery of your magic, enabling you to modify spells on the fly much faster than others can.
Prerequisite
Spellcraft 12 ranks, ability to spontaneously cast spells,
Benefit
When you apply a metamagic feat to a spontaneously cast spell, the spell takes only its normal casting time.
Normal
Spontaneous casters applying metamagic must either take a full-round action (if the spell normally requires a standard action or less) or add a full-round action to the casting time (if the spell takes 1 full round or longer to cast).
