3.x - What If You Had Every Magic Item?

[unseenmage]

Just like the feat thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?591673-3-x-What-if-a-creature-had-every-feat-in-the-game) what if (EDIT a copy of) every magic item were in your possession at once?

All the weapon powers in your weapons, armor powers in your armor, etc etc.

EDIT
Some clarifications,

No artifacts.

We'll go ahead and say only permanent items.

Yes to combining and extrapolating items.

Though they're all effectively either embedded Warforged component-ized or item combined into the Warforged anyway.

Epic items are a yes.

Intelligent Items are a no, just because we dont need them all activating their own powers trying to kill each other.

EDIT AGAIN
Okay, we'll pass on cursed items for now too.

And we're making one copy of every item, not vacuuming up every item in the cosmos, though that'd be a cool trick.

Well, first you change your name to Mary Sue...

My big question is "how many?" Do you have only a single wand of fireball, or an infinite number of wands of fireball? Same question for scrolls. Your answer will determine if this is "pretty damn good" or "Pun-Pun."

[MisterKaws]

Could you extrapolate magic items based on other magic items? For example, could you extrapolate a Rod of Many Rods from a Rod of Many Wands and then nest wands into rods into rods until it looks like a Christmas tree?

[Asmotherion]

So basically Boccob?

[Arael666]

Since he referenced the feat threat, I do believe it's safe to assume he's talking about "permanent" items like weapons, armor and wondrous items. That would exclude wands, scrolls, staffs... (no idea about eternal wands). I could be dead wrong though

[MisterKaws]

More like Omniscifier+Nanobots.

Boccob is weaker than any Illithiid Savant or Beholder Mage to be honest.

Any is a strong word. Human error is a thing.

[Particle_Man]

Are we including artifacts? Intelligent items that all want to dominate you and get you to get rid of the other ones? Epic magic items? The black sphere that eats things including other magic items?

They're Aberrations tho.

[pabelfly]

Does this include cursed items that give you negative levels? You're not going to have a good time if that's the case.

[Buufreak]

They're Aberrations tho.

Sure, but they are rolled and ran by humans, who aren't always going down the path of "eat all other illithids."

[Telonius]

All officially statted magic items is going to be a lot smaller of a group and easier to manage than all items. Otherwise you just get a bunch of use-activated Custom Wondrous Items of every spell and psionic power in the game.

Speaking of spells, you now have all of the Boccob's Blessed Books. The Wizards who thought they were getting a deal are going to be a bit upset.

You're now in possession of the entire supply of Githyanki Silver Swords. They're also likely to be a annoyed.

Item Familiars will be another issue. (I believe this is one of a few cases where you're technically only allowed to possess one).

Being in possession of all of the world's Lich Phylacteries is going to be amusing.

You're going to have to be very, very careful that none of your Bags of Holding fall into your Portable Holes.

Total massacre of any of the Dryads who have been using Acorns of Far Travel. Anybody who was mid-flight on a broom or flying carpet is kind of hosed. Same with traveling underwater by means of magical items.

Why eat Illithids when you can call Pazuzu and eat Pun-pun himself?!

[Jack_Simth]

Arms and Equipment guide has pricing for adding feats to magic items. So you're looking at having all feats.

You have access to a rather lot of spells thanks to Runestaves, Domain Staves, and Eternal Wands.

[Endarire]

I assume you'd have a very high or nigh-infinite number of ioun stones surrounding you to grant you total cover.

[unseenmage]

One would never have enough actions to activate them that's for sure.

It occurs to me to wonder how many redundant effects can be ignored and also how many effects counter one another.

[Malphegor]

Dumb thought- we’re getting the variants of bags of holding and portable holes in close proximity, so there’s a good chance space will explode in our nearby vicinity, scattering us all across the Astral.

Also a few firery objects near the Necklace of Fireballs means actual fire explosions might suddenly pop

You don't necessarily have to wear everything. The Necklace of Fiery Decapitation is slotless, so you just dump that in (non/extra)-dimensional storage, or maybe just use it up. The Helm of Brilliance Effect you'll probably want to use up for similar reasons.

Although if Epic items are in play, you're immune to Fire (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/epic/magicItems/rings.htm#universalEnergyImmunity), and only need to worry about those saves when dealing with Searing Spell.

You would be standing in the middle of the largest pile of loot in the universe, much of it out of reach, and most of which you can’t use — only two weapons or one weapon and one shield or two staffs, rods or wands; two rings; one cloak; one pair of boots; one pair of gloves, etc.

So you are at the center of Loot City, and the target of every adventurer in the world, including all planes.

I’m not sure you’d survive the near-infinite volley of area effects in the surprise round.

[Saintheart]

You have all cleric spells, all domain spells, and all wizard spells up to level 6 (via Greater Anyspell) on touch-tone dial because you have every permanent rune in existence. Permanent runes are slotless magic items created via the Inscribe Rune [Item Creation] feat, and are permanent when made by a level 8 Runecaster. You can unleash the spell contained in them at a touch and become the target of that spell, albeit this may be a standard action depending on how restrictive your DM is. You also have any number of these runes set up in their offensive form, which is to say, anything that passes within 30 feet of you becomes the target of the spell rather than yourself, and this activation costs no actions at all.

This sounds like a mad campaign setting. Like the MCU version of Sakaar.

"Somewhere in the multiverse, all bags of holding and extradimensional spaces connect, ever so slightly. And sometimes, people end up here. Welcome to Kassar! The place where all items you scribbled off your character sheet ended up. To the rest of the world, you are unwanted. But here... Here you can make a name for yourself."

The entire 'world' of Kassar is full of random junk, composed of every item in all of D&D and stuff alluded to. All the inhabitants of Kassar tend to be well armed and well equipped, but there's a weird sense of depression about the entire world, eased only by the occasional Distilled Joy vial that sometimes ends up in this bleak trashworld.

Roaming gangs of animated objects do battle with rollerblading goblin samurai in the world built on that the other material planes tossed away.

The intention is that ALL of the items are accessible via item combining rules.

[Calthropstu]

You would die.
Instantly.
Then you'd raise as a wight.
Then you'd be destroyed by your holy items.
Why you ask? Because negative levels, many of which bypass immunities.

Even if you didn't die, you'd be unable to move. A single suit of platemail would render me overencumbered, let alone the dozens that appear throughout the game.

[Jay R]

Either the DM invents an encounter that is a legitimate challenge for you, or the game is over.

I refer you back to my previous post. Many non-cursed items bestow negative levels (robes of the archmagi, holy weapons, etc)
The moment you gain them, you die, no save.
