<p>Any neck slot item will take away from his using the hand of glory, which gives him a third ring slot which he uses for the ring of evasion. After his bonded item (ring), the ring of protection, and the ring of evasion, no other rings really compare.</p>
<p>Outside of combat, he is really just a knowledge guy and back up on perception with a +15. He does know plenty of languages with 24 languages and a +25 linguistics. He can attempt to aid in diplomacy with a +7.</p>
<p>He does have fly and overland flight in his spellbooks and has a +22 fly skill.</p>
<p>In terms of what is listed on his chronicle sheets, there is a Staff of Illusion but that is 82,000 GP.</p>
<p>Due to a specific scenario, he can use Chain Lightning, Greater Dispel Magic, or Greater Invisibility as a SLA once with his level as the CL and Intelligence when determining the DC.</p>
<p>At this point, any bonus to his AC or CMD is a mute point. There is little need to up his ranged attack bonus due to true strike, which of course he knows he has to cast the round before hand.</p>
<p>He has only enough gold for maybe 1 lvl 4 pearl of power or 1 or 2 lower level ones.</p>
<p>Main concern right now may be on consumables since he may not have the gold for other high ticket items and some other upgrades or available items may be a mute point.</p>

<p>In a little over a month, I will be playing my level 14 Human Universalist Wizard in one of the 12 - 15 scenarios that will bump him to level 15 and will most likely be his final farewell into retirment as a VC (I have the boon). He has just over 31,000 gold and I am not entirely sure what to spend it on. I am hoping I may get some help from you guys and gals.</p>
<p>Here is the major info:</p>

<br />
3750 GP of Diamond Dust (Some for Stone Skin and the rest for healing purposes)
<br />

<br />
Acrimony Vail
<br />
Goggles on Night</p>
<p>With all of this being said, I do play him as a Universalist that focuses on Evocation spells with some Necromancy harming spells and other damage dealing spells. When needed, he will summon creatures through Summon Monster spells. Unless the spell is from a player companion book, I may already have enough spells with just over 100 to choose from in 4 spell books.</p>
<p>I do know that consumables like healing potions will need to purchased.</p>
<p>Any helpful info will be met with gratitude.</p>Hello everyone,

<p>I be coming from San Antonio, Texas. I do not mind GMing 7 scenarios and then either walking around during the other 3 slots or doing what-not if not playing. I will need to fly since I do not have a vehicle of my own right now (sold my vehicle for scrap a few years back since it died twice in 6 months and haven't been able to purchase a new or used one).</p>
<p>I understand that there will be so much more to the overall convention than the little paizo room but if GMing 7 sceanarios/sessions and going is the only option I have to be able to go, I may have to make those decisions while saving up for the following year so I do not need to GM to go. Plus, tomorrow I will be playing in one of the specials and will get a look at how they may be in quality. I should easily be a 4 star gm by Christmas time so I may get chosen to GM a special. I would prefer the super star GMs be chosen for that but I would take the challenge and prep all that I can.</p>
<p>But hey, I may get lucky between now and January to where I come into a lot of extra finances and do not need to GM for all access pass type of thing.</p>@ Swiftbrook,
