[quote=@Lucius Cypher] [@Salrynn] Ya know, I actually wanted to get a gong as a shield for my Valor Bard. Everytime you hit it it would make a loud booming echo, perfect for drawing everyone's attention away from the rogues. But alas, my GM said that there wasn't a smith who knew how to make such a thing... Also just a heads up, I'm currently in a collab with yours truly, so I apologize in advance if I end up ignoring someone who came after Sona or went to look for Malkus. [/quote] one method: Shield of spell storing is set to release the spell when a player is successfully hit as part of a contingency. Set a thunder or sonic based spell and there you go. other method: take the same cost as a wand of (thunder or sonic spell) and add the cost to a +1 shield. you now have a +1 shield that casts the thunderclap or whatever whenever struck.
