Going to Rust Monster Isle

[ElectricDragon]

Is there a spell or Alchemical process that protects from rust (other than Gauntlet of Rust). I vaguely remember reading about something like that but cannot find it in my books. Please list the reference if you know of such a thing.

Thanks in advance.

Though somewhat unclear, Everbright magic weapon special ability (in Arms and Equipment Guide) may work. Or may not. It makes a weapon "immune to corrosive attacks". But IIRC there is no rule to define what is "corrosive attack" and what is not. So ask your DM.

You can always use wooden/stone weapons and armors. Darkwood shields are already popular. And Ironwood spell (druid) may help. For weapons, you can simply use clubs or staves and cast Spikes (Complete Divine) on it. Or make your favorite weapon via Ironwood spell. There are plentiful of wooden/stone armors in Arms and Equipment Guide, Races of Stone & Races of Wild.

And in all cases, Magic Vestment and Greater Magic Weapon may help you enhancing those "temporally" equipment while you are in the isle.

Drink a potion of confusion, then read a scroll of enchant weapon (or enchant armor).

Everbright, I think thats what I (mis)remembered. Thanks for all the suggestions.

I am mainly trying to figure out a way to protect my figurine of wondrous power (non-standard and made of cloud iron, kind of the opposite of cold iron). It is well-known to the local thug's union that I have and use such a figurine so leaving it at home is not an option. I'll ask my DM if Everbright will help against rust attacks and if it can be added to the statuette. I will pass along all the other suggestions to the party tank and healer, though.

Thanks again
