small bit information on Arcane Bond
"If a bonded object's owner dies, or the item is replaced, the object reverts to being an ordinary masterwork item of the appropriate type."

But what if the wizard is bring back to life? If I enchant a bonded ring with ring of invisibility and protection effects will I get those enchantments back upon returning to life or are they gone for good?

by RAW i think nope :( but im not 100% sure about it

From a rules perspective, you appear to be interpreting them correctly. It's likely just a corner case, though, so I would expect a GM not to be nasty about it and just let the bonded item come back when the wizard comes back.


It reverts. It doesn't happen to turn off while the wizard is gone, it loses all its magic as that was contingent on the wizard's life.

If the wizard is resurrected, he must select a new item to be his arcane bond (which could be the same item again) and begin the process of enchanting it anew.
