Enlarge Spell and Close Range . . . error

[Stegyre]

I was just noticing that the RAW for Enlarge Spell doubles both the base range and the increase for both medium and long range spells, but doubles only the base range for close range spells.

There does not appear to be an errata.

Is this viewed as an error, or is the general consensus that WotC really intended it this way?

"ENLARGE SPELL [METAMAGIC]

Benefit: You can alter a spell with a range of close, medium, or long to increase its range by 100%. An enlarged spell with a range of close now has a range of 50 ft. + 5 ft./level, while medium-range spells have a range of 200 ft. + 20 ft./level and long-range spells have a range of 800 ft. + 80 ft./level. An enlarged spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell’s actual level.

Spells whose ranges are not defined by distance, as well as spells whose ranges are not close, medium, or long, do not have increased ranges."

That's double base and range for all of them. What do you mean?

The mistake is in the reading. Close Range spells only get a 5 foot range increase every two caster levels, Enlarge spell turns it to 5ft per caster level.

Ahh! Now, I see. Thanks.
