Cure Light Wounds spell...

[J1NG]

Something is bugging me about this spell, it's probably just me forgetting something, so do you guys mind helping me out here?

Description:-
Cure Light Wounds
1d6 + 2 + max 1/level (max 5)

So my level 20 FvS casts this spell. How much should it become?

For me it looks like

1 + 2 + 5 = 8 (minimum)

So when I use Empower, Empower Healing, Maximise, that becomes:-

8 x 1.5 x 1.5 x 2 = 36

With enhancement of 40% healing boost, that gives...

Roughly 50.

With a healing amp of 190.1% that should give 95 minimum. (even if you go 40% first, it still gives 48 and then 91)

So why am I getting 62 as the lowest number?

I use Unyielding Sovereignty and get 1901, so it's clear that my healing amp is working correctly.

I use Cure Light Wounds, and I get 62, 70, 79, 87, 95 and 102. So it's clearly rolling 1d6.

But somehow I'm getting a minimum number of roughly 5 (I say roughly as it's below the maths, see below)

5 x 1.4 (enhancement) x 1.5 (empower) x 1.5 (empower healing) x 2 (maximise) = roughly 60 (close enough to 62)

But it's way short from the description. (And waaaay off from any known cure light wounds)

Anyone else seeing something similiar?

Of course, if you see where I went wrong with the calculations, also let me know.

Empower, Empower healing, and Maximize are additive. So that's 8+4+4+8, I think. 24, not 36.

24 * 1.4 * 1.9 = about 64.

Cure spells are likely using ddo burst dice so instead of 1-8 it is more like 4+d4 or 5-8
*** sorry substitute for apppriate dice type but you get the idea.

That's taken into account... I think it's 1d6+2.

Excellent, thanks Kourier.

The feats being additive would explain the situation. Thought they were multiplicative.

Knew I was missing something.
