08-08-05, 04:28 PM DM hooked me up with a great weapon with the spell storing enhancement on it. I've never had that or really looked at it before, but here I am.

So, any suggestions for good divine spells I could store in it? Looks like the spell can/is discharged on hit, so some kind of Bestow Curse might be in order?

Keep in mind I'm Lawful Good, so dropping some kind of hideous evil cystic infection is probably not going to happen:)

08-09-05, 10:28 AM I personally would say that Devine Spells cannot be stored in a weapon for use like that, only arcane.

Besides that point, a good one to have is dictum. Get rid of those pesky outsiders fast.

I'd also talk to my DM* about allowing a flame strike spell that ignores the wielder.

*please note that even if I do not think an item should not be able to store devine spells, I'm not one to not use it if the DM running the game decides it can.

08-09-05, 10:46 AM Well the spells must be no higher then level 3, must be targetted, and a standard action spell. So with those requirements:

Inflict (up to serious) Wounds - extra damage never hurts - well it does, but hopefully not you.
Command - "You have been hit, now do my bidding"
DOOM - Yes you will die.
Hold Person
Shatter (if you plan on sundering)
Bestow Curse (even worse then Doom)
Dispel Magic - This is a no-brainer for me

08-09-05, 10:54 AM Spell Storing weapons can't have spells above 3rd level stored in them, and it must be a single targeted spell.

Ask your GM what caster level he'll have the spell function at too. If it's at the level of the caster who cast the spell then something like Searing Light could be nice (especially against undead for 10d6 damage) whilst Cure Serious is an interesting option (You cut yourself for some minor healing or use it for extra damage versus undead).
