Inventor looking for ways to silence casters


Advice


I'm in a situation where it might come down to me (Level 8 Android Inventor) and my construct companion vs the three casters in my party in a PVP battle.

I'm looking for items or runes that I could build (I have magic crafting) to silence or gag the casters in my group.

This is all sanctioned and in good fun.

Any suggestions?


Silencing Shot would be perfect except that it is too high of an item level.


Wand with Silence (4) in it. Should be available from level 9
Silencing Ammunition though the save is now low

Maybe Silencing Shot? I like the wand idea. Can anybody use a wand? Even if they don't have access to the magic school?


With trick magic item, or a simple Dedication Feat in the right tradition.

This is a little more involved, but might I suggest working with your GM to invent a dawnsilver adhesive strip consumable you can slap on a caster's mouth when you use your Tamper ability? Feels like it'd be very in-character for an Inventor to discover the many wonderful uses of duct tape! :P


That is another constraint to the thought experiment. Are you having to enter this duel with your character as-built currently? Or are you able to build specifically for the duel?

Things like Trick Magic Item or retraining a feat slot to a spellcasting dedication would give you more access to things, but would also take at least downtime to accomplish if this is for an actual game.

I love this idea. Are there no similar/existing items you can use to gag players/humanoids in PF2E?


You could just use any old cloth. Cleave gags are nice and simple.

I don't know if there are, but I just thought referencing the "silence is golden, duct tape is silver" meme would be a good bit. ;)

What's a "cleave gag?"

It's a gag that's pulled between someone's teeth and not just placed over the mouth.
