Incense of Meditation?

[danielxcutter]

Incense of Meditation (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/wondrousItems.htm#incenseofMeditation) is a one-shot item that lets you prepare all your divine spells as Maximized ones - for free. Candles of Invocation (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/wondrousItems.htm#candleofInvocation) also have divine spell boosting effects(which I imagine get overlooked because of the 500 gp Gate effect), but this lasts long enough for it to last for a day.

Yes, I'm aware that's it's just good for one use. But for that one use, that one day... it's pretty good for something that costs less than 5k a pop, I guess? And heck, I don't think it's limited to just one caster per use!

It does say "praying and meditating nearby," without specifying a distance, so it does seem reasonable that several casters could benefit from the same incense.

This could be handy for a party with several divine casters facing a tough fight (e.g. druid, cleric, ranger)...but I could also see this being used by cultists or other NPCs in preparation for the PCs' attack.

Yeah, one of those one-shot super-boosts.
