What spells do I put on a Spell Storing Ring?
« on: April 23, 2013, 01:52:36 PM »
I'm playing a 7th level Gnome Beguiler who recently came into a Ring of Spell Storing from a God of Magic temple as my reward for saving the city. I've now got 5 levels of spells to put on the ring and I'm at a loss. I had thought initially to have a friendly wizard or cleric put some low level spells that would save my life in a pinch, but I scratched that when spell #1 on that list (Feather Fall) doesn't exactly meet the requirement of "Spells on the ring take a minimum of 1 standard action to cast". I have yet to run out of spells in a day, so it seems like a waste to fill it with spells from my own list. Any thoughts on what I should do?

Thanks for your help
Background: 3.5- Players Handbooks I and II only for spells (I have SpC access for my Advanced learning only and don't want to push it for this). We're based out of one of the world's major cities and have access to casters that are friendly (though they'll need to get paid). There are a level 6 and level 4 druid, paladin, and lsorcerer in the party as well (though other than utility stuff, I don't really want to steal their spotlight castings)

Heroics?
Draconic Polymorph?
Luminous Armor?
Grim Revenge!?

What feat would I want to copy with Heroics? Threads on the spell suggest Martial stuff from ToB, but we don't use that in our game. It hardly seems worth arguing for the use of a SpC spell for- my little guy's got Str under 10 and does a whole lot more staying on the fringes of combat.

Everything else sounds far too broken for our game, although reading about Grim Revenge made me laugh. Thanks for that.

Improved Initiative is always a good Feat to snag, and sometimes not good enough to snag in your real slots you know?

I love what Grim Revenge set out to do, loads of fun. :D
