Alright so! I need Detect Magic (and hopefully Read Magic too), but my trait slots are precious, so I'm looking for ways to get it at-will that don't cost an exorbitant price; preferably not more than about a thousand gold? I'm not sure if "item of at-will cantrip" works out to 500gp or 1,000gp, or if my math is, in fact, just entirely off base. So far, I've got:
Cloak of the Hedge Wizard (divination variant), 2,500gp: Does what I want, also gives me Prestidigitation at-will, and Detect Secret Doors and True Strike 1/day, none of that's useless.
All-Seeing Armour, 5,570gp: +1 chain shirt that gives me Detect Magic and Read Magic at-will, which is another thing I wanted access to, so that's neat, and also comprehend languages 1/day, which is situational, but not awful. It's so expensive, though..
Lantern of Auras, 2,000gp: A lantern I can point at objects, and everyone can see their auras. The rest of my party doesn't have Detect Magic either, so letting everyone see is a neat idea. Doesn't seem to have a limit on its use, so that's cool. Possibly my best option? I might want to pay the extra 500 for the cloak, to get the extra spells..
Discerning Wayfinder, 500gp + 5 PP (I do not know what PP is!): This is from some PFS book, it's a Wayfinder that can cast Detect Magic instead of Light, and it's my cheapest option, I THINK??? but I literally have no idea how to acquire it. What ARE PP?
Have I missed anything? Does user have any suggestions?
