Protection from level/ability drain

[Kae'Yoss]

Very interesting. I broke down the price of the scarab. 30,000 of it was for the SR 15, so that leaves 8,000 for the protection. That comes to about 666 gp per charge (protection from single attack). However, given that the protect is the secondary non-similar power, its price on its own is actually 4,000, which comes to about 333 per charge. Very interesting indeed. Thanks!

You have to consider that multiple negative levels will drain more than one charge. So enervation will 1d4 charges.

A more specialized thing, you could create a spellblade (+1 MP modifier) that protects you against a single spell that drains you, or use spell immunity for those spells.

Already did.

An attack that would bestow two negative levels counts as two attacks.
