Well, I'd be thinking that the "Turn Bullet To Other Form Of Energy" spell
would be more or less a Bullet Barrier spell. It requires an input of
magical energy from the caster, and it stops bullets getting to the target.
While a normal Bullet Barrier spell uses the spells energy to provide an
inpenetrable barrier to bullets (whether you rule it forms air molecules
into a hard wall, or manifests astral energy to the physical in the shape of
a wall or whatever), a "Turn Bullet To Other Form Of Energy" spell uses the
same spell energy, but in a different manner. End result? Same thing happens
- the bullet is stopped short of hitting its target by the power of the
spell. Sure the special effects are different, but it has essentially the
same end result. I don't think it would be overbalancing or munchkinous at
all. Just a little more stylish than a regular Bullet Barrier (and, hey,
it's style that counts after all isn't it? :-)).
