[QUOTE="Nifft, post: 1672987, member: 6562"] 900 gp for 3 potions? No way. Give her a Wand of Cat's Grace (3rd level) with only 10 charges left. Same 900 gp, but far happier princess. She can't use Rapid Shot with a Crossbow, and she can't use a Longbow while mounted. So, she's going to have to use a Composite Shortbow. Thus, her normal damage is 1d6 (20/x3). I'm going to suggest that she get a MW Mighty (+2 Str) Composite Shortbow for 600 gp, which will deal 1d6+2 (20/x3) damage. Sadly, reduce person does not lower her bow's strength rating, but it also doesn't reduce her bow's damage die -- so, if she's set on using reduce person, she should get a MW Mighty (+1 Str) Composite Shortbow instead (only 500 gp). In place of Reduce Person, I'd choose Shield. It's a great spell that's never going to get old. For sure she should ditch Magic Weapon. It's not a great spell even for Wizards or Clerics, and she'll outgrow it quickly. More importantly, though, she should have some sort of attack spell for those occasions when she's not able to buff for three rounds. Consider Ray of Enfeeblement. Finally, what the heck is she going to do with that Wand of Cure Light Wounds? She has no ranks in Use Magic Device, and she's certainly not a Bard, Cleric, Druid, Paladin or Ranger. -- N [/QUOTE]
