These items give a character the option of using a specific cantrip/orison at will. Neither of these items is game-breaking. What other Slotted Items of Cantrip X would you want for your character (for players), or allow in your game (for DMs)? Here is the list of currently published WotC 0-level spells, in alphabetical order. Each spell in this list appears on some class' 0-level slot option. There are a number of spells I would not allow (generally offensive) as an at-will item, but your mileage may differ. Acid Dart Acid Glove Acid Splash Aiming Line Amanuensis Arcane Mark Attract Fine Vermin Caltrops Candlelight Chalkboard Conjurer's Toolbelt Create Water Cure Minor Wounds Dancing Lights Dawn Daze Deathwatch Detect Crossroads Detect Magic Detect Poison Devlin's Barb Minor Disguise Disrupt Undead Easy Math Electric Jolt Electric Slap Electric Spark Enchanting Flavor Fine-Tuning Fire Flash Fire Hand Flare Fleeting Fame Force Blow (F) Frost Touch Ghost Sound Ghostharp Groundsmoke Guidance Inflict Minor Wounds Minor Invisibility Know Direction Launch Bolt Light Lullaby Mage Hand Mending Mental Alarm Message Minor Energy Ward Naturewatch Necrosurgery No Light Nosy Neighbor Open/Close Percussion Preserve Organ Prestidigitation Purify Food and Drink Ram's Might Ray of Frost Read Magic Repair Minor Damage Resistance Seeker's Chant Shadowplay Silent Portal Silvered Weapon Skull Snare Slash Tongue Songbird Sonic Ray Sonic Slap Sonic Snap Stick Styptic Summon Instrument Minor Temporary Soul Binding Tongue of Angels Tongue of Fiends Touch of Fatigue Unnerving Gaze Vengeful Mount Virtue Minor Ward

Come to think of it, I'd probably go so far as to allow a magic item that could use Acid Splash, Ray of Frost, and their equivalents in fire and electricity (not familiar with the rest of those cantrips) at will. 1d3 energy damage is hardly game-breaking. The only Slot Item of Cantrip X I might have a problem with as a DM would be Goggles of Detect Magic.

Create Water would be incredibly useful as well -- so would most any detect spell. Mending and purify drink would be good too. So would Amanuensis. Heat Water and Glittering Razors (From Dragon 302, I believe it was) would also be useful.

(Make it so that you can attach it to the top of a staff) Then there is the (custom) item of Antimagic-Field detection: it uses Mage Hand to make a tiny metal ball float inside a glass container. When you hear the ball hit the glass, you're either standing inside an AMF, or someone just dispelled the item. A music box of lullaby is cool. (It'd be use-activated. Since concentration isn't required, it may need a slight price adjustment, though the DC is quite low.) From what book is 'Seeker's Chant' ?

Havers Makebate, Necromancer,Lawyer and all around dandy, used it to clean the bodies of the dead, summon "tea" and cups from the the nether, gather evidence,remove evidence, and accessorize his hair and clothes. I was eventually gonna add unseen servant to it, creating a true gentelmans ring. Message is cool, but see the new Ring of Sending(Magic Item Compendium) The old Launch Bolt could be Chain Spelled, a combo that just fits into a wand. The new one is still cool, but I would want the the item to allow CrossBow enhancements,since all it does is save the weight of an actual crossbow. A locket of Guidance, would be mighty handy.

One of my own characters has recently had a custom item made specifically to have prestidigitation and mending at will with unseen servant 3/day. I call it my valet gem. I clean and repair my favorite outfit and have it pressed and folded for me each morning thanks to that little trinket.

Wouldn't that be a little pricey, though? Just having the two cantrips at will puts you back 1800, plus whatever for the Unseen Servants. Oh well, I guess that's the price you have to pay to get your work done for you.
