Warlock's Imbue Item and varying spell levels

[Falling Icicle]

I'm considering getting the Hellfire Warlock prestige class, and am looking into getting wands of lesser restoration to recover the con damage. The interesting thing is that LR is a level 2 spell for clerics and druids, but only a level 1 spell for paladins. Can a warlock, using imbue item, chose to mimic the paladin version, so that it only costs 750g instead of 2250g?

If your DM allows this then your golden Been trying to convince my DM to allow my Archivist to learn LR from a Pally for a first level spell, only thing is that it's hard to find a Pally willing to share spells with an Archivist/Dread Necro worshiping the Blood of Vol...

While theoretically feasible, it just feels like playing metagame hokey pokey. Given its exclusive (ie paladin) source, it might be reasonable to rule it as a spell with the [Lawful, Good] descriptors.

ps - I'm Erywin's DM, btw.

Lowest caster level possible for a Paladin is 2, so the wand would cost at least 1500 gp, unless there are Chameleons in your world -- a Chameleon could make the 750 gp wand easy.

It would cost 1,500 gp to buy, but 750 gp to craft.

Back to the original question, I'd allow it, but only using base classes, not prestige classes. (No CL 9 scroll of miracle or true resurrection by pretending to be an ur-priest, for example.)

RAW would allow it, but I see it as closing a loophole. YMMV.

Would you allow an Ur-Priest to make the item?
