[QUOTE="Victim, post: 2063043, member: 78"] Yeah, and could also start several levels behind that way too. Not to mention they'd be limited to what they could make by spells known and crafting feats selected. We're talking about a wizard. He needs a B^3 so his spellbook benefits from magic item durability and because it reduces scribing costs. He should also spend at least 10k aquiring additional spells so his wizard has more spells than a sorcerer. Besides INT and CON boosters, Resistance items, and the like, Pearls of Power are usually pretty good. Instead of grabbing a Lesser Extend Metamagic Rod for around 3k, grab a 1st level pearl for 1k. When the Mage Armor wears off, you can recover the spell and recast it. And you can also use it to renew after dispels or recover other spells as the situation requires. I wouldn't go above 2nd level pearls though, as the cost increases rapidly compared to alternatives like Rings of Wizardry. A huge pile of scrolls or potions is nice too, since just about any problem can be bypassed with the right magic. The HHH is another great misc item. Many of the benefits of a bag holding, although the capacity (and price) isn't as great. [/QUOTE]
