07-25-05, 01:32 PM Hi guys. I'll go straight to the point, I know you'll help me, 'cuz you're so nice santa claus leaves you the keys for his apartment every x-mass.

I have an 11th level Paladin, and I need items to cast on me "Aspect of the Deity" and "Righteous Might" on a regular basis, it can be by spending charges, or (as I prefer) charges per day, but i need it the most cost-benefit effective.

What do you recommend?, A ring for each?, a Staff with the two?. What is cheaper, a 50 charges pool with each spending two charges?, two charges per day?, three?, how expensive becomes to them to be command-word activated?.

Thanks.

07-25-05, 01:43 PM Well if it's a one shot (or limited campaign) go for the wand (though you need DM approval to cast such high level spells into the wand). I think wands are restricted to fourth level spells? Not too sure since my DM's always allowed up to 9th level wands. <br><br>

Given that. If this will be an ongoing campaign, go for a slotted item (cheapest). Personally, I think there are much better stuff to buy:<br><br>
Greater Blinking (90k, from complete arcane)
Soulfire (+4 armor enchantment, BoED)

But you should try making a vest of "righteous might" or "aspect of deity" and say boots. Pick the more obscure slotted locations...rings tend to be more common so you don't want to tie up your fingers if you can.

07-25-05, 02:42 PM I'd advise against vest, because as a paladin you'll be wanting a cloak of charisma and vest is the only other standard slot for a resistance item.

I'd suggest a mask for the 'aspect of the deity' as IIRC the same spell has been renamed to 'visage of the deity' under 3.5 (see complete divine).

For the rhiteous might item I'd suggest a slot that +es to strength normally come from, such-as gauntlets or a belt, keeping the other slot for your actual gauntlets or belt.
