What about the Gossamer shielding mantle? What kind of AC bonus does it add?

Dodge?
Natural?
Enhancement?
Deflection?

Neither, actually. The bonus is temporary for 24 hours at which point it becomes permanent for the purposes of bonus spells, etc. for as long as it is worn. It's still an enhancement bonus, however, so it will not stack with owl's wisdom.

If I drink a Potion of Owl's Wisdom, how long will it's effect last?

Aside from TWF what's your play style?

Do you put UMD to use, are you the face for your group, are you a stealthy TWF, are some of your stats detrimental, etc...?

Just because if we know your focus, we can better pinpoint where you should spend most of your gold :)

I am curious, now that you know, what do you recommend?

There's a lot of cheaper stuff that could be useful as well.

MW thieves tools, everburning torch, holy water, antitoxin, etc.
How are you set for that kind of thing?

You're in a city, IIRC. You could go to town with disguises, a hat of disguise, etc.

Don't forget spellcasting services. There are times when heading to the nearest church and getting a divination cast is worth it.

I have MW thieves tools. None of the other stuff. Are the bonuses to divination pretty much for perception checks/gather information?

Also, I don't think I have ever put UMD to use.

Right now we are a 'smash and grab' group running the Council of Thieves. We have a tank paladin who can take a wallop but doesn't really deal that much damage. We have an insane ranger who is super overpowered. We have a healing cleric and have a sorcerer who just came in.

My rogues stats are:
STR 16
DEX 20
CON 15
INT 8
WIS 14
CHA 15

I have a MITHRAL BREASTPLATE, +1 Short Sword and a Keen Short Sword. I also have dodge. My rogue normally picks the locks and sneaks, but mostly the ranger scouts. I primarily use my sneak attack for flanking with the paladin. I flank a great deal and deal the most melee damage.

Just to be clear, is 10k the gold amount for the entire party? Or your own cut?

I have $12,222 k that my rogue won on a bet. It is all mine.

A "buttload" of cure light wounds scrolls (they are cheaper than potions)

+2 weapon if possible... that is like 8k... Or a +1 weapon with ghost touch or keen (if no feat).

What does Ghost Touch do for a weapon?

I have a Handy Haversack.
I am a TWF, Short Swords.

Boots of Speed?

Armor(or ring, amulet, etc) with Shadow on it helps a rogue as well... if stealthy at all (take a level of Shadowdancer and start hiding in other people's shadows).

What about BRACERS OF ARMOR? I have a Mithral Breastplate though. Will they work together?

Well, I am not going to the grocery for rogue gear, but if I could what would they sell? I am in a campaign right now and the party has a bit of gold(over $10k). We just hit level 6 and I have a rogue. Bottom line, I would love some advice.
Also, links to previous threads are sweet.
I have read ROGUE EIDOLON'S GUIDE so much I think I printed out the Google Doc. My rogue is TWF with Short Swords(one Keen the other +1) . He has a Mithral Breastplate for armor. In our group we don't have a crafter so what I am looking to buy is strictly store price.
I am thinking right now:

Ring of Protection +2
Amulet of Natural Armor +2
Belt of Physical Might
Cloak of Elvenkind
Vest of Escape

I have a 6th level rogue with around 12,000 gold. I am wondering what would be prime gear to have. We don't really have any crafters in the book and I am overwhelmed by what is out there. I love this guide and already have mithral plate, per the recommendation but really I am looking into rings of pro, amulet of natural armor, etc. Any help is prime.
