more Power Jewels

[CapnZapp]

Adventurer's Vault contains two interesting wondrous items; the Power Jewel and the Salve of Power (page 176).

So if you collect a whole pocketful of these, you could use all of them, right?

Then; I was wondering if you couldn't base a whole set of items on the stats of these two...

Power Jewel, Ruby (Level 3)
Wondrous Item 360 gp; Daily: Minor Action. This power allows you to regain the use of an encounter power of 1st level.
Special: You must have reached at least one milestone today to activate this item.

Power Jewel, Ruby (Level 5)
Wondrous Item 1,000 gp; Daily: Minor Action. This power allows you to regain the use of an encounter power of 3rd level.

Power Jewel, Ruby (Level 15)

Power Jewel, Onyx (Level 5)

Power Jewel, Onyx (Level 9)

And yes, I'm using the ruby and the onyx to match the color-coding of encounter and daily powers, respectively.

They would fall until the Daily Item Power restriction, but otherwise yes.

I believe it was: 1/tier + # of milestones reached.

Yeah, I'm not sure what you're asking, Cap. Yes you can use all of them, but no you can't use them all in the same day. You're still limited by the X item daily and healing surge abilities per day rules.

I'm pretty sure ap's asking for feedback on the expansion of the power jewel to more than just 1st/3rd encounter powers.

I have very little experience of balancing this sort of thing, so I can't comment knowledgeably about that aspect, but I will say that I agree that it would be nice to have more options for power jewels.

I do have one question, though. The power jewel in the book allows you to regain a power of 1st or 3rd level. Was your expectation that yours would just do the level specified or that level or any lower level encounter power?

Hmm, it might be useful if there was some way to avoid crazy bursting with dailies.

Like, not having someone burn 6-8 dailies in one epic combat would be good
