Building a caster bard with HIPS, final split is 38 bard, 1 SD, 1 Harper (for feat cheese!). Very high charisma with enchantment focus. Working well so far, but struggling to work out what my end game equipment should be.

My priorities are:

- At least +8 charisma
- 45 perform
- Plenty Hide and move silently

I would be interested to find out if there are any simple weapons or magic staves with significant plus to hide/ms or cha and DO NOT SHED LIGHT.
I plan on using the finale reward cloak so that rules out hide cloaks.

Any suggestions are welcome.

38 bard song gives +24 to skills, gear only needs be +26 to cap

To get perform (without singing twice):
epic bard gloves for 30 perform 1 str and other stuff
reward cloak + 10? perform +5 cha ... not sure on exact stats

ammy of appraisal (+2 cha)
Arch assassin tunic for 7 hide/ms +3 dex mass camo (+10 hide buff) - prolly better options here
Boots enchanted elvenkind +10 ms, 2 dex, one with the land (+4hide /+3 ms buff)
helm - haste, 1 dex
ring of survival X2: +2 hide/ms, 2 regen, +1 con
heart of darkness dagger +3 hide/ms (swap fools schtick (-10 hide??) to sing if necessary w/shield +2 cha (dwarven mirth has no light I believe))

gets you there ... +9 cha (+4.5 perform), +6 dex (+3 hide/ms), +2 con, +14 (28 w/buff) hide/+24 (+27 w/buff) ms (reasonablly close with a realistic 1 ring of survival and somethig else ... pally ring for +cha/saves/disc maybe)

Thanks, sam. Dwarven mirth is a no-go due to its arcane spell %age failure. Never heard of that dagger before. Are they hard to come by?

I would suggest a sorceror staff with +CHA and a speed stick

Would allow a helm with perform or slots may be other options.

These have bright light on them (well, the grand magus version does for sure, not sure about the +1 and +2 variety)

Yes, unfortunately all the merchant charisma staves have 20m bright light.
