Cheap Favorite Magic Items

[Krash]

What magic items to you seem underpriced for their usefulness under the regular un-errata'd rules.

Boots of springing/striding are obvious...can anyone think of other staple magic items that they couldn't live without that are too cheap?

Ta !

 

[Bauglir]

Cloak & Boots of Elvenkind spring to mind.

At 1k GP, any paladin without a phylactory of faithfulness would be insane.

 

[Brekki]

Necklace of Prayer Beads (Karma), pretty much all my clerics and druids have one.

 

[Shaele]

Hewards handy haversack. Pull out scrolls, wands, potions as a free action. 2000 gp

Cloak of resistance +1. 1000 gp

Boots of striding and springing. Double movement. Still a bargain at 6000 gp (errata price)

Wand of cure light wounds. 50 charges. 750 gp. Much cheaper than potions or scrolls.

 

[Thresher]

Gloves of storing, damned handy for packing away a holdout weapon or ranged weapon thats a bit awkward when the enemy closes.

Hat of disguise, depends on the character Im playing but most anyone doing anything covert from time to time can find a use for it.

Wand of Cure light wounds, essential for just about any cleric (or rogue) up to around 6th level, then you'll probably want to get a Cure Moderate one.

Type 1 bag of holding or a Hewards, just for carrying off the loot or for poor weak wizzies who have to carry around a lot of books.

 

[Darklone]

Bracers of Archery.

 

[Olgar Shiverstone]

Quaal's Feather Token: Tree

Hundreds of uses ... you just never know when a 60 foot redwood will come in handy.

Also, burnt out ioun stones, cast with continual flame -- make for torches you don't have to carry!

 

[Naar]

Wings of Flying. Far better than Winged Boots, and yet much cheaper.

 

[Pax]

Well, while it's non-core: a Permanent Rune of Faith Healing. 2,000gp, for unlimited healing (at 9hp per use), the only caveat being, you have to worship the same deity as the fellow who scribes the Rune.

Mind you, you can scribe those onto ANY other item ... like those "useless" Ioun Stone torches.

The QFT: Tree rocks! I had one that saved my little halfling butt just the other night. I bought another one to replace it and next time it should be even more handy since I also bought two more items that I think are great for their price: Slippers of Spider Climbing and a Ring of Jumping. Picture my Halfling Rogue leaping from limb to limb and climbing with ease, all over my QFT: Tree!

One thing about the continual flame ioun stones: I think they're neat and all that, but couldn't you just as easily hang a continual flame torch off your belt to get the same "hands-free" effect?
