[QUOTE="Shin Okada, post: 2628682, member: 1956"] In my experience, boosting up Search and Disable Device is the way to go. Because, as already mentioned, not only the rogue, but entire party may meet some danger if a trap is not disabled. For Search, there are various magic items to boost it up. Goggles of Minute Seeing, Lense of Detection, that psionic mask which gives +10 bonus to Spot and Search (I forget the name), etc. Investing party's wealth to such kind of item may be beneficial for the entire party. For Disable Device, I can't think of any item which gives bonus to this skill. But you can always buy Headband of Intellect to raise Int score itself. And, there is a spell called Divine Insight in Complete Arcane. Which lasts 1 hour/level and give you insight bonus of +5 +caster level to any one skill check. My Shadowbane Stalker cohort is using this skill intensively. Taking some cleric level, or taking enough levels of disable device, will give her access to this spell (or wand). [/QUOTE]
