For those of you who are familiar with my warlock class, here are a couple of Pathfinderized magic items for the Warlock. I think they are balanced against what they do, but any advice, comments, critiques, or suggestions would be welcome.
And here are the items, a conversion of the chasuble of fell power and the warlock's scepter. They are not the same as the 3.5 versions of them, so read carefully. And, for those of you not familiar with what a chasuble is, click the blue link and it will take you to the wikipedia page describing them, with pictures.
Aura: moderate necromancy
CL: 10th
Slot: Body
Price: 20,000 gp
Weight: 1 lb.
Description: This heavy vestment is similar to other types of chasuble worn by many clergy over their normal robes and raiment. Although the exact appearance varies, a typical chasuble of fell power is usually crafted from crimson or scarlet cloth, backed by a lining of black silk, and sewn with intricate arcane and eldritch symbols in either gold or silver thread. When this garment is worn by a Warlock, and the Warlock use his eldritch blast modified by an invocation, the wearer gains a bonus of +2 to the save DC (this bonus does not stack with that granted by the Ability Focus feat).
Construction
Requirements: Craft Wondrous Items, eldritch blast
Cost: 10,000 gp
Aura: moderate necromancy (+1, +2, and +3), strong necromancy (+4 and +5)
CL: 10th (+1, +2, and +3), 12th (+4), 15th (+5)
Slot: None (held)
Price: 5,000 gp (+1), 14,000 gp (+2), 29,000 gp (+3), 50,000 gp (+4), 77,000 gp (+5)
Weight: 3 lbs.
Description: This light mace is constructed from cold iron, with a handgrip of wrapped leather bindings and features an enhancement bonus of between +1 and +5. Many of these weapons have a sculpted head that resembles the skull of some creature. The warlock’s scepter grants its enhancement bonus not only on attack and damage rolls made with the weapon itself, but also on all ranged touch attacks made while the weapon is firmly grasped in one hand. This is a continous effect and requires no activation.
Furthermore, the warlock’s scepter allows a Warlock to expend one of his spell slots as a swift action in conjunction with his use of the eldritch blast class feature. By expending a 1st or 2nd level spell slot, a Warlock may add +1d6 damage to his eldritch blast. By expending a 3rd or 4th level spell slot, a Warlock may add +2d6 damage to his eldritch blast. By expending a 5th or 6th level spell slot, a Warlock may add +3d6 damage to his eldritch blast.
A warlock’s scepter may be upgraded to add additional weapon properties, but the cost to do so is calculated at 3,000 gp x (the total bonus of the enhancements and special weapon properties added together) squared, plus 2,000 gp (for the cold iron material). For example, a +2 frost warlock’s scepter will cost 29,000 gp (3,000 gp x 3 (effective total bonus) x 3 = 27,000 gp + 2,0000 gp = a total of 29,000 gp).
Only light or one-handed bludgeoning weapons may be enchanted as warlock scepters.
Construction
Requirements: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, Craft Wondrous Items, eldritch blast, magic weapon, caster level must be three times that of the bonus granted (minimum 10th)
Cost: 2,500 gp (+1), 7,000 gp (+2), 14,500 gp (+3), 25,000 gp (+4), 38,500 gp (+5).
No thoughts? None at all?

I am saddened by the lack of comments.
MA
well i have nothing to add but i like them and already plan to incorporate your warlock into future games so, kudos.
I am impressed by your warlock conversion as well as these items, and would like to see more. :)
I have a feeling I will be playing one of these as soon as I can convice a GM to let me do so.
Thanks. Glad that you enjoyed them.

would the weapon enchants on the warlock's scepter give bonuses to the warlock's invocations?
Enhancement bonus? To attack rolls, yes. Special properties (i.e. frost, flaming, holy, etc.). No.
