So I'm picking my 4th level spells and I see this beauty

Fire Trap
Does 1d4 + 1 per caster level (max 20)...
Reflex save for half

Oh and Maximize and Empower don't work on it.

Why don't you fix stuff like this?


This spell is hard to use on multiple critters, takes some prep time... It should do AT LEAST as much as fireball, and probably twice as much...

And of course Maximize and Empower should work on it...
