When a Ultima magus is adding a meta magic feat Still Spell (Metamagic) to a 1 level spell does it has a dc as a 2 level spell or a 1 level spell ?
Can he add more than one meta magic feat to a spell ?..
well sorry for these questions its a long time since I have been playing
Still Spell [Metamagic]
Benefit
A stilled spell can be cast with no somatic components.
Spells without somatic components are not affected. A stilled spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell’s actual level. |

Also remember that your metamagic enhanced spell cannot exceed your maximum spell level. So, using your example, let's say you are capable of casting 4th level spells. You add a silent and still to a 2nd level spell (both adding +1 level), increasing the "slot" of the spell to 4th level, but the spell is, for all other numerical factors, a second level spell.
As Mapolq said, the only metamagic feat that increases the DC of a save-spell is Heighten Spell. In the event you use a burning hands (1st level) to bring it up to 4th level (per heighten), it still does the damage of the 1st level spell, but the DC would increase to your 4th level spell (so, from a minimum DC of 13 with INT 15 if it's 1st level, to a maximum DC of 16 using the heighten spell). You could also mix & match, using silent spell (+1 level) and heighten it to 4th level (+2 more levels), so the DC would become 15, with the spell effectively being a 3rd level spell.
Hope this helps.

The Ultimate Magus is from 3.5E.
That's the thing about mechanics questions, those who are able to answer probably already know what edition the OP is referring to, unless another edition has an implementation of a similarly named concept. |

If your going to ask mechanical questions, you need to let us know what E you are talking about. |

By the standard rules, using a metamagic feat on a spell does not alter its save DC (except for Heighten Spell). Also, you can add as many different metamagic feats to a spell as you want, and the level increases add up.
I have no idea what a Ultima magus is, though, so I may be off base here. |
