Weaponwand Sabotage


Rules Questions

Dark Archive

I play in a (not PFS)game with lots of factions, political intrigue and very party conflict oriented due to nearly every character is in different faction and/or sub-factions.

My character a Ranger-Crib Warden(Urban-esque law enforcement game archetype) 6/ rogue-Shadow Jack(perception/ stealth heavy ambushing law enforcement game archetype) 3/ Barb 4 and my buddy is a Paladin 6/Cleric 9. Our faction is law enforcement and kinda the defenders of the poor and desperate in an area called the CRIB(The CRIB is an area of 23% of the Sanctuary City where 75-80% of the lowest live.it's all a huge maze of shanties in a wall-less 12 story giant size building. Basicly a Super slum).

while the 2 of us are on a mini-quest (There is almost more small group stuff, than full party adventuring), our weapons get sabotaged the paladins +2 greatsword is healing for 2d8+3, more healing then damage he's doing. my sword is turning foes invisible. needless to say, our first random encounter was quite a bit rougher then it should have been.

We blew off 24 charges from a Hex breaking Rod to Dispel the 2 swords breaking the weaponwand spells.

The 2 wands are stolen from other party members. 15-16 hours away from where they last saw us.

So my question is, How do you make weaponwand last more then 15 hours?
Money is to tight for 2 Permanency spells, Maybe someone could have scraped up enough for one. but most of us are in the crapper for failed/semi-failed missions.

There's a lot going on in this one that sounds home-brew, so this is probably a question for your GM.

Let's start, though, with Weaponwand. Weaponwand does NOT cause the wand to be used every time you hit something with your weapon. All weapon wand does is to place the wand inside the weapon so that you don't have to hold the wand separately from the weapon. You can either attack with the weapon (standard action) or activate the wand (standard action). You can not do both in the same round, unless you're a Magus with the Wand Wielder Arcana.

EDIT: I guess additionally Weaponwand does allow you to use your attack bonus with the weapon if you need to make an attack for the spell cast from the wand. But it very specifically states that you don't do weapon damage plus the effect of the wand. The point being, even if someone did put a wand inside your weapon without your knowledge, and find a way for it to stay there for 15 hours, you would be under no obligation to actually activate the wand, and it would not activate automatically when you attack.

I know, I was actually hoping someone would pull a different spell (that I over looked,) that would explain the wands activating as they did.

According to the GM, it's all 100% pathfinder.
