My players got a bunch of money (55,000). However, the oracle has no idea what to buy. He's tempted just to burn the whole amount on a belt that gives +4 to two physical ability scores out of frustration. Maybe you can give him some help?

He built his Occult oracle as a melee fighter. However, he's enjoyed summoning as well. He's level 11.

Silver Crusade

Build a castle!

If he absolutely has to have more magic items though the belt is actually a good idea for a melee character.

Another party member already spent his share commissioning an alchemy-powered galleon and buying out a new town district to serve as his home base.

Grand Lodge

Cloak of Resistance, Headband of +2 Charisma, +2 weapon, +1 mithril breastplate, spend the rest on a physical belt.


What's he got in the way of equipment already?

Metamagic rods can be handy for summoners BTW.


Off-topic, but:

I'm just reading this Phantom Touch revelation, and WOW-EEE! I usually hesitate to use the word "broken" in Pathfinder, but this is crazy! No-save, no-SR, touch attack that frightens/panics for multiple rounds, usable more-or-less at-will?

Is it just me, or is this WILDLY strong?

Quote:
Phantom Touch (Su): As a standard action, you can perform a melee touch attack that causes a living creature to become shaken. This ability lasts for a number of rounds equal to 1/2 your oracle level (minimum 1 round). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier. At 5th level, the target instead becomes frightened, and at 7th level, the target becomes panicked.


Yeah Phantom touch is nuts. One of the few reasons to actually be an Occult Oracle.


Ring of Revelation is always a good choice for oracles. It gives them another revelation either from their mystery, or if their use magic device skill is high enough, it can even give them a revelation from a different oracle mystery.

That seems similar to a soothsayer's raiment.

Thanks Cyrad, I did not know about the Soothsayer's Rainment!

My character will definitely have to pick one of those up - one, my plan is to dump AC, so I was looking for an interesting item to put in her armor slot. Two, there are so many good Life revelations even at level 11 I'm still wanting to grab more. Three, I plan to use Divination pretty often, so that extra 5% chance of success is just icing on the cake.
