I am currently in a game where Disguise Self, and the Hat of Disguise are very prominent. At least 2 of 5 party members have them and they are used, I kid you not every session. We have a druid who (ab)uses it to do things like :
Be a dire wolf, look like a cow.
Be a dire eagle, look like a crow.
Be a baboon, look vaguly humanoid.
and its not far off : Be a red dragon, look like a gold dragon.
And I cannot, for the life of me, find a way around it. I've spoken to the GM and he reccomends "Gem of Seeing" at 75,000 gp its seems excessive. Like using disintigrate to dispose of refuse.
Can anyone help ? Short of patting everyone I meet down (physical interaction) is there a way around this seemingly INCREDIBLE first level spell ? I know targeted dispells could get rid of it, but its detecting it!
I've thought about getting Detect Magic items, but just about any peron of medium to high level is going to glow like a christmas tree. And the GM is all too happy to let the party move right along while I say "Im detecting Magic" - he says "Okay, so and so stands there for 4 rounds looking constipated, what are you doing ?"
Anyone have any suggestions ?
