How many players equip their familiar? What do you find useful?
I am about to get a lantern archon (using planar familiar instead of exalted - is not supernatural, so I do not lose it in an anti-magic field, and also can be neutral good instead of lawful good) and am trying to figure out what to get and "how"
The "how" relates to wear location - I am thinking of trying to argue for a "face" wear location and do something similar to a third eye and attaches to the outside, although something like a slotless pearl of speech might be another option?
First thing I want to get is a phylactery of change -- will let it change to many different shapes and stay in that form as long as necessary (the coure eladrin has better flight, high dex, hands, etc....) -- can also "dim" its glow by taking another shape since it is not clear if it can normally dull it
Also considering the collar of perpetual attendance (to effectively give it hands to move things when in its normal form)
I am worried about it being targeted - I do not think my DM will disproportionately target it, when we represent a much bigger threat, but curious how much I should be concerned.
