Message: <blockquote data-quote="mkletch" data-source="post: 494427" data-attributes="member: 3396">The ability is the item in question, not the item as a whole.  If I take a wand (which is just really a stick), and enchant it to be a +5 tiny greatclub (caster level 15), that does not mean that the spells in the wand now have a caster level of 15.  We are talking about the specific ability.  Some items have multiple continuous abilities.  That is what this is referring to.So, does this imply that a 1st level cast putting magic missile into a spellstoring item gets an 8th level effect in return.  Per this line, every effect coming out of the weapon would be 8th level, or even higher if the overall weapon has a caster level higher than 8th.Spell storing casts no spells, it simply releases stored magic energy.  The stored magical energy does not care what level it is released at, and, per previously quoted rules, does not care what level it was originally cast at.  There is no caster level specified for the stored spell, so it is at minimum.  Spell storing with caster level of 8 means that the item has a minimum caster level of 8 for purposes of being dispelled, and nothing more.For the ultra-low cost of a spell storing weapon, you get an infinitely reusable potion (not scroll; that would require the spell to be on someone's list) that can affect others.  You simply do not get the option of specifying the caster level of the effects released.  That would be ultra-cheese.You have obviously made up your mind and are only flaming in return.  Or just cheese your stored spells to ridiculous levels to 'beat' the game.  Your loss.  If you still disagree, write the Sage...-Fletch!</blockquote>
