Vermin Repellent is also a cheap alchemical remedy to keep them off you. Additionally, if there is a druid in the party, they can convert any first level spell to Summon Natures Ally I and summon a mite. Mites have Vermin Empathy and since most swarms are vermin, lets them control the swarm. Just make sure the druid speaks undercommon before he summons the mite since that is the only language they speak.
I personally think it would work for the following reasons:
Wording needs to be carefully considered when stating your readied action and very specific. Personally I would state the following: I ready to Aid Joe Blow's second attack on his turn.

It doesn't specify cost but it does specify a specific poison that has a price per vial (120 GP) which is more than the generic 25 GP limit. I have already spoken to the two GM's and they would enforce only legal PFS play which would require that I purchase the venom. I do have one chronicle on the character that has black adder venom listed but it is limited to three vials. So I could cast the spell three times. I just wanted the ability to cast it more than that.

Unfortunately we have no poisoners, ninjas or alchemists in the Eyes of Ten group. Also, I would not dip one level for a single spell, I don't need it that bad plus I am already exactly 12th level that would not be possible.
I would really like my druid to be able to use this spell when I go through the eyes of the ten with him at the end of March 2015. The issue is with the spell material component which is Black Adder Venom. The spell is from Inner Sea Gods and legal to use according to Additional Resources. The material component, Black Adder Venom is not legal for purchase in Pathfinder Society Play according to the FAQ and even if it was, the Druid Class is not allowed to buy poisons. So either the spell needs to be listed as illegal for use in Society play OR there needs to be a FAQ stating that Spell Material Components for allowed spells are always available for purchase in Society but those components with other uses that are not legal must be used only as a spell component. |
