Is there a magic item that makes Teleport not have a miss chance when you cast it? It wouldn't have a Teleport ability itself, just upgrade your spells.

Not to my knowledge... Perhaps you could use Greater Teleport (7th level)...?

It doesn't reduce it to 0 miss chance, but a Luck Blade (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/magicWeapons.htm#luckBlade) will let you reroll the miss chance once per day... but you want to make sure you've got the tables down cold to choose when to re-roll.

There's the Anchored Navigation (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/powers/anchoredNavigation.htm) psionic power that you could put in an item. It doesn't outright state that you get 100% accuracy but "mishap-free" should let you roll on the Very Familiar odds at least.

You could take Metamagic School Focus (conjuration), Invisible Spell, and Arcane Thesis (Teleport, Greater) the to make your Greater Teleports 5th level.

IIRC there were guidelines, either explicit or extrapolated, for an item granting the benefit of a feat. MIC's Serpent Leather is a possible example of this, granting Combat Reflexes. Take the original price (12160gp) -1,000 (+1 resistance) -1160 (+1 padded leather), for the remaining price of 10,000 for the benefit of a Combat Reflexes. For the example I'm about to give, I'll assume the benefit of any feat is worth 10k.

For a rough cost estimate, you could take a Ring, put three feats on it (Metamagic School Focus: conjuration, Invisible Spell, and Arcane Thesis: Greater Teleport) totaling to 30k, and it lets you prepare/cast Greater Teleport as a 5th level spell three times per day.


Alternatively, you could just spend an hour Scrying the area to which you wish to Teleport, making the "miss" chance laughably small (~5%). If you're really cheap, you could always say (in your backstory) your character's parents were wanderers or whatever, and moved around a lot as a child, so you list the setting's major cities and say he was "comfortable and felt at home" in each of them. Be sure to put down some important experiences and "firsts" he had in each city so you don't look like a munchkin.


Alternatively, just keep some scrolls of Teleport (or Greater version) on you at all times, to cast again if you really mess up the d% roll. Or a Pearl of Power if you have the cash and hate consumables.
