Well, i have a new character, through careful knowledge of what I already knew meeting up with these people, I can sherlock holmes may way into convincing the party that the money is better used for this next adventure.

Meaning you're trying to con the party into giving up the loot they got off your corpse to buy consumable items for your new character? Sounds like a good idea in general.

On the cheap items I'd probably throw out something like Scrolls of Sleep. For 25 GP you can shut down 8 Kobolds in an encounter with some decent chances. So always a good deal unless you are dealing with HD advanced Kobolds. If you DM likes to pad out Action Economy when fighting Dragons by tossing in some kobolds that can really change the equation in a simple, easy way.

Usual culprits still apply of course. Scrolls with spells that you may not necessarily want unless you really need it. Identify, Read Magic, Knock, etc. All cheap enough that it should be able to fit comfortably in your budget.

No, pretty much to bring them up to my level of optimization, i'm a dungeon crasher, and I took ever advantage I could find :).

Oh, reminds me, something that's saved me a lot of headaches in my days:

Scrolls of Augury.

It's such a simple spell, but when you need it, you need it. When people get hung up on what to do or start playing the "Can we outguess the DM?" game, it untangles that knot really quickly.

And yes these are Kobolds with class levels. easily 4hd or more. :(

Buying a wand of Cure Light Wounds can help with out of combat healing? Who is the one in your party that has access to divine spells?

[Dusk Eclipse]

Wand of Lesser vigour is much more cost efficient for out of combat healing.

Only the rogue can activate that stuff via UMD :( And he has that already. I'm just terrified of breathe weapons myself lol

2650 on consumables... You could always get really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, reaaaaaaaaaaaaally drunk.

With all these breath weapons about, resist energy is a no-brainer. If you can get access to the ranger version, a wand is within your budget.

A flask of Sovereign Glue always comes in handy, even if you can't afford the Salve of Slipperiness to go along with it.

Might I suggest the Dust of Sneezing and Choking, a cursed item costing 2,400gp, from the DMG?

It might not be as useful as some of the other items here, but hitting all creatures in a 20ft spread with a no-save, 5d4 round stunning effect has its uses.

240lbs of shapesand.

Shelter, Check, make it form a steel box. Ready made fortification.

Climbing, make a ladder.

Crevice, make a bridge.

Make armor, make walls,

It turns itself into a wagon or into easy to carry loads for each character.

ANY MUNDANE OBJECT UNDER 240lbs!

With the remaining 250gp, you can get a nice big lot of gruyere or roquefort, eh? :smalltongue:
