Best uses of shrink item spell?


Advice


Question is in the title. I like large boulders personally. Specifically useful if you have a ring of telekinesis.

As a creation subschool wizard who just reached level 12, I rather enjoy creating diamond spikes and large gunpowder/diamond grenades and using telekinesis to forcefeed them to enemies.

Alternately, it's always good for winning bets in bars. (Betcha can't lift this rock!) :P


This is an arcane trickster character if that makes a difference.

I like the bar bet thing.

I appreciate the response, but the spell in question is shrink item not any of the creation stuff.

Ah yes, I meant that I use shrink item on them after creating them. Lets you fit a 3.5 ft diameter bomb in the palm of your hand. Quite more useful. Same applies to anything you can come across or make yourself - I'm sure alchemists or gunslingers could hook you up with a good gunpowder provider.

Fire or lava is nice to have, too. You could also make a portable battering ram. In a pinch, you could have someone eat the maguffin so the bad guys don't get it (it lasts for days/level, after all). Quite convenient way to transport large musical instruments. Remember that you can make them clothlike, so this is a good way to fit anything under doors or into envelopes.

The most common use I've ever had for shrink item was to use it on people who'd been statue-ified by medusas for easy transport back to the temple where they might (eventually) be able to get an NPC cleric to fix 'em.


The most efficient actual use I've had of the spell was boulders. In a dungeon, they can be even more efficient than wall spells.
