Hello everyone.
I'm trying to figure out a way to cast Paragon Surge with non half elf wizard. The point is to get access to extra item creation feats for long enough to actually work at least 4 hours a day on a magic item.
The wizard will have acces to this racial spell thanks to the Secret of Magical Discipline feat.
One of the ways I figured out was using Polymorph any Object to actually turn the caster into a half elf, that then would comply with the target rule of Paragon Surge: personal (half-elf only).
Once Paragon Surge is casted, the caster chooses to replace the polymorph effect of Polymorph any Object with the Paragon Surge effect.
I found a way of extending the Paragon Surge effect here: http://minmaxforum.com/index.php?topic=19469.0
The other way I was thinking of to archive getting Paragon Surge for an extended period of time over a non half elf character, is to actually craft an item with continual Paragon Surge.
So, the user should be affected by Polymorph any Object and then wear the magic item. Being a half elf at the moment of wearing the item, it will satisfy Paragon Surge requirements. But then, the later polymorph effect replaces the former. So what happens then? Do continual effect items constantly check the wearer status, and being that the case, the Paragon Surge item stops working once the wearer ceases to be a half elf? Or once the continual effect starts, it is only stopped by the wearer taking off the item or by the item destruction/dispelling?
