I was reading the Eternal Wand section of the ECS, and I got to thinking, what would be the best spells for one of these things?

With a max. spell level of 3rd, and a max CL of 6th, it seems like attack spells are right out the window.

Levitation might be nice. Maybe Rope Trick? I'd make one of Arcane Sight for those treasure rooms.

True Strike. Level 1, CL 1. Have an artificer Quicken it just for kicks.

Knock would also be good. Maybe Feather Fall?

any spell that you would only want to use 1 or twice per day(i know you need 2 eternal wands for 2/day)

spells that have 24hr duration:

create magic tatoo is nice for low levels, but the caster level cap sucks


information gathering spells are also nice, detect xxxxxx

others will add more spells, gotta go :D

Clairaudiance/Clairvoyance
Shrink Item
Alter Self

If your DM is crazy enough there is also 'Guidance of Avatar' from an article on wizards.com. Just run a search, it grants +20 circumstance bonus to a single skill check.

I think most of them should be utility spells that don't need caster level for efficiency and that don't need or allow saving throws.

(Extended) Rope Trick. (Extended) Alarm.

So Utility Spells, is what I'm saying and hearing. Stuff that:

1) you only need once a day
2) isn't really level dependent

I was watching a star wars thing this morning, and thought to myself that a Eternal Wand of Flameblade would look cool.

Well. If the flameblade came out of the end of the wand.
