Cure Serious Wounds Wand. Anyone have gp price handy?

[Kaelynna]

Hello,

I'm at work and separated from my DMG, does anyone know what the gp cost is for a cure serious wounds wand? I know cure critical wounds is 21,000 gp, but I need to know cost for cure serious wounds.

Thanks in advance!

The market price for a wand is (spell level) x (caster level) x 750 gp, for 50 charges. For a CSW wand at 5th caster level (which is the minimum), that works out to 11,250 gp.

Both you and hong are very fast on these boards! Thanks a lot!

I do have one more question.

A 2nd level ranger, 1st level assassin type character can use wand of cure serious wounds and wand of improved invisibility without use magic device correct?

Thanks!

Yup, because it's on his spell lists (the first to the Cure the second to the Improved Invis).

That's what I thought, but I wanted to be sure.

Thanks Zhure!

11,250gp.

...and that works out at about 11250 / (50*(3*4.5+5) = 12,16 gp / point healed, whereas a wand of cure ligh wounds comes out at 750 / (50*5.5) = 2,73 gp / point healed.. sooo, which one should you buy?

Of course cure serious wand is more useful in the middle of combat to quickly heal someone, but for between-the-battles healing use a cure light wand.

Depends on what you intend to use it for.

Exactly. Most of the players in my games prefer to keep the more powerful healing spells in potion form, while the lesser ones, such as Cure Light Wounds, are great as wands. Besides, if you have to quaff 10 potions of Cure Critical Wounds in the middle of a fight just to keep going, it's probably time to consider a strategic retreat.

You know, for future reference, all that stuff is in the System Reference Document, which is on the web.

Yes for between battle wands of cure light are nice. My 13th level Cleric is carrying around 4.
