1. Can both effects of Residual Magic occur within the same spell off a wand? EG:
Mialee Casts an Empowered Heightened (level 7) Phantom AssailantsChill Touch on her first round to deal 1d4+1d2 Wisdom 1d6+1d3 damage. Then she casts Phantom AssailantsChill Touchfrom her wand the second round. Does it BOTH her INT modifier + spell level AND be modified with heightened and empowered?
2. Heighten Spell modifies the spell's level, hence does it change the minimum ability score necessary to cast a spell when determining the DC of a spell cast with a wand? EG: Gimble uses a five charges in a wand of Phantom Assailant to heighten it to level six. The DC is now 20, +6 (spell level), +3 (minimum charisma to cast a 6th level spell), +1 because Gimble is a gnome? Or will the wand's 4th level limit keep this from taking effect, making Metamagic Spell trigger useless for metamagic effects of +3 or better. What about scepters?
