Maybe he or one of you could explain what the following do:

Hm...well,  I'd like a bit of data on the vampire hide and the augment crystal. For the former, I know it's some kind of undead graft, and for the latter, I know it's only of use to psions, but I think I'd like to hear exactly what they both do...and I don't have the rulebooks for either.
Those Bracers sound neat, but I'd like to hear a bit about those Gauntlets of Destruction and the Bolt Shirt before making a decision.
That Rod of Bodily Restoration sounds good...and unless that Garb is useful and kobold-sized, it's better than all the rest. Where's it from? And, for that matter, what does the Rod do?

[Wrex]

Acquire the Magic Item compendium.

Vampire Hide is a +3 studded leather armour that also grants DR 5/silver & magic

The augment crystal is a thing you can put on your weapon that makes it do 5 extra fire damage on a hit, once per round.

Bracers of Opportunity gives you +2 competence bonus on all attacks of opportunity, and can be activated twice per day to gain an extra attack of opportunity.

Crimson Dragonhide Bracers are just bracers of armour that also give fire resistance 5.

Gauntlets of Destruction let you reroll 1s when making weapon attacks.

The Bolt Shirt lets you teleport 60' once a day.

The Rod of Bodily Restoration is basically a Wand of Lesser Restoration, for physical attributes only, which never runs out of charges.

Garb of the Hunting Cat is seen here and is super hilarious. You should take it.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Acquire the Magic Item compendium.

Not only do I not have a ton of money to spare, the 4th Edition means that finding a copy of 3.5 books is a bit difficult.

Hm. The Augment Crystal sounds like it should go to someone who uses weapons more. On the other hand, the Vampire Hide sounds like something that most others have better versions of (specifically, armor), hence why no one has claimed it, so if it's not Medium-sized I'll take it. If it's not, or if someone claimed it and I missed it, I'll take gold instead.
The Gauntlets of Destruction sound incredibly meh for someone who never uses weapons, as well as being about as wrongly named as "doom". I believe I'll go with the Bolt Shirt.
And, finally: What the heck, I'll take the Garb.

Oh, and does anyone have multiclassing or Truenaming optimization advice?

[Grek]

The Garb, being magic armour, will resize to fit the wearer.

[RedWarrior0]

Also, I don't think you'd be able to have the bolt shirt and the body piece from the Garb worn at the same time.

[Caellath]

@Grek: Can I have the true-seeing gem? I noticed you seem to have claimed all three of them, but I could sorely use some extra modes of vision.

Edit: That and I have an idea of how to integrate the gem into Elesse's helm.

[RedWarrior0]

Blindfold of True Darkness is a steal at 9k for 30ft darkvision. Course, you need to give up a vision mode to use it.

Alternatively, getting an item of continuous Touchsight to 60 ft would, based off generic magic item costs, cost... Woah. 24000. However, it's the best vision mode; even the Darkstalker/Ring of the Darkhidden combo is ineffective against it.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Also, I don't think you'd be able to have the bolt shirt and the body piece from the Garb worn at the same time.

You can wear a shirt and a cloak at the same time.

[RedWarrior0]

The body piece is a cloak? Must've misread that.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Mantle is a fancy word for "cloak".

Anyways, advice. I really don't feel like Drak is good for much except finishing off foes, occasional awesomeness, and--dare I admit it--comic relief. I don't want to be that, I want to be productive. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to do that?

[RedWarrior0]

Save-or-dies.

[kaijyuu]

But save-or-die is my niche

[Wrex]

The body piece is the "Mantle of Predators", gives a +5 on hide and move silently, along side a die of sneak attack.


I'm generally hesitant to allow custom magic items.


My advice would be to rebuild drak as a character, which I would allow.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Save-or-dies.

Two problems.
1. Truenaming doesn't trigger saves.
2. Truenaming doesn't have many "die" effects. If they're underwater, though, I have something to work with.
Should I multiclass into something that has SoD's?

My advice would be to rebuild drak as a character, which I would allow.

How much?
