How many Ioun Stones can you use at once? Also, do they work with other head gear?

[dead]

Just wondering how many Ioun Stones you can have zipping around your head and all working?

Also, does an Ioun Stone work if you've got some other piece of head gear on like, say, a Headband of Intellect or Goggles of Darkvision?

Thanks.

P.S. Many Ioun Stones zipping around a PC's head would look way cool. In fact, there's some illustrations of the sort in the XPH but I'm not sure if a) this is artistic liberty; or b) these are psicrystals.

You can have as many ioun stones as you can afford floating around your head at one time They take up no slots and they do not interfere with headgear.

Ioun stones don't actually occupy a slot so you can use as many as you want/the DM will allow. And yes their effects stack with an item in the head slot, assumig that they provide bonuses of a different type of course.

Thanks.

Hmm . . . 15 Ioun Stones buzz'n round my head (one of each type). What a sight!

Heightened?

Heightened?

SRD:
Higher level light spells are not affected by darkness.


So, if it has a higher level then it penetrates into higher level darkness type spells

Also, you dont want it to wink out when walking around into globes (yes, I know it depends on how you read it).

And hey, since it is permanent might as well get the good stuff.

I know someone who once had 1000 mundane Ioun stones floating around his body. The DM allowed that they granted him a cover bonus.
