Item with Strength of The True Form

What would be a reasonable price for such an item? It will be constantly active when worn.
"I'm done thinking for today! It's caused me enough trouble!"
"Take less damage to avoid being killed."
"In the arena of logic, I fight unarmed."

Use Iron Heart Surge on the sun. That'll teach him to use fluff as RAW.

Damn you! You totally ruined my build that was all about getting epic far shot early and throwing my enemies into the sun!

8000gp.

There's rules for that in the DMG, in the specific case, an item based on a 1st level spell, assuming the minimum caster level required (1) and a duration of "rounds" means the cost for a continuous item is 2000 x 1 (spell level) x 1 (caster level) x 4 (duration is rounds) = 8000gp

His old DM was on crack. He could take levels in freaking Dread Necromancer if he wanted to and no rule in the universe would keep him from doing so.
Rule 0?
Which, I guess, would be 'no rule,' since none = 0.
What's funny is he always brings up Rule 0. I actually had to ask him what that was, and without blinking an eye he gave me the most detailed explanation I'd ever heard for a rule. It was like he was in a trance when he spoke. Looking it up, it just said "The unspoken DM gets final say/veto anything he wants rule."
You're such a kind man, for taking in abused unfortunates and rehabilitating them.

There's rules guidelines for that in the DMG, in the specific case, an item based on a 1st level spell, assuming the minimum caster level required (1) and a duration of "rounds" means the cost for a continuous item is 2000 x 1 (spell level) x 1 (caster level) x 4 (duration is rounds) = 8000gp
FTFY. Otherwise, we should all break out our Gloves of Continuous True Strike...

Sounds like the makings of a gay porn film.

I know there are guidelines, but they're just that, guidelines. That's why I'm asking.
"I'm done thinking for today! It's caused me enough trouble!"
"Take less damage to avoid being killed."
"In the arena of logic, I fight unarmed."

True, but wasn't there an issue with them anyway since the spell discharged?
Anyway it seems a fair price to me since it does still uses up a slot too.
