[QUOTE="Joshua Randall, post: 6860960, member: 7737"] My DM was kind enough to give each PC '[B]any Rare up to level 20[/B]'. But I'm suffering analysis paralysis and can't decide what to take. [LIST][*]My character is a [B]level 17 shadar-kai Avenger[/B] (Censure of Unity). [*]He wields a [B]Flail[/B], and I am not interesting in changing this (for RP reasons), which restricts Rare weapon selection. [*]It's a home campaign so there are some quirks, but if you think 'pretty much like LFR' you have the gist of it.[/LIST] My current array of items is as follows. [sblock=]+4 Bloodiron Heavy Flail +4 Enduring Spirit Vestments +4 Cloak of Displacement +3 Symbol of Victory Helm of Able Defense Iron Armbands of Power Antipathy Gloves Viper Belt Boots of Free Movement Ring of Giants Ring of Fury Eager Hero's Tattoo[/sblock] [U][B]Rare Weapons[/B][/U] [B][URL="http://www.wizards.com/dndinsider/compendium/item.aspx?id=1536"]+4 Hellthorn Weapon[/URL][/B] [B]PRO[/B]: DM agreed this could be reflavored to work with entire party (even though we're not all 'allied devils') based on RP reasons, so this item's power will work any time I miss [B]CON[/B]: already have +4 Bloodiron weapon; Avengers don't miss much so this item's power might not trigger often [B][URL="http://www.wizards.com/dndinsider/compendium/item.aspx?id=3375"]+4 The Ineffable Secret of Death (Ki Focus)[/URL][/B] [I]Note: my PC counts as a Vampire (reflavored as extra-shady shadar-kai) so he can use ki foci[/I] [B]PRO[/B]: extra damage with CA; sexy Encounter Utility insub/phasing with fairly easy trigger [B]CON[/B]: already have +4 Bloodiron weapon; can't use this item's attack power (Assassin dependent) [U][B]Rare Wondrous[/B][/U] [B][URL="http://www.wizards.com/dndinsider/compendium/item.aspx?id=1086"]Dice of Auspicious Fortune[/URL][/B] [B]PRO[/B]: perfect information is perfect [B]CON[/B]: Avengers are already super accurate (roll 2x for attacks) [U][B]Rare Roleplaying Items[/B][/U] [B][URL="http://www.wizards.com/dndinsider/compendium/item.aspx?id=3168"]Phylactery of Faithfulness[/URL][/B] (Holy Symbol) [B]PRO[/B]: campaign involves lots of dubious choices, so advice from deity could help steer me right [B]CON[/B]: DM dependent; mechanically worse than Symbol of Victory [B][URL="http://www.wizards.com/dndinsider/compendium/item.aspx?id=3341"]The Oracle's Head[/URL][/B] (Wondrous) [B]PRO[/B]: campaign involves lots of dubious choices, so free Consult Oracle ritual could help steer me right [B]CON[/B]: DM dependent [U][B]Anything Awesome I'm Overlooking[/B][/U] [I][B]You tell me![/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
