Oh, the Ioun stone and the Headband bonuses don't stack? grrr, nevermind then. While the +1 Caster Level stone would be nice, as you've said, Jason is probably in more need of it than I.

What exactly is involved in the Archmage Academy thing?

DM fiat; Presitge classes are listed as an optional rule the DM must consider carefully; my take? You'd have to work for it - in this case, researching it's existance, finding someone who is already a member to tell you where to go (other than the lower planes, of course), getting there, and convincing the higher-ups that you are completely qualified.

I know Cat's Grace, so I could help you out there, and if I took another level of Wizard now and did Archmage instead of Wizard 16, I could get the Craft Magic Items and Armor feat... but I'm not sure how helpful that'd be in comparison to some other things I could do.
Well, at 15th, you also get a character level feat; two feats immediately if you take a level of wizard now.

I still need to level up before I'd get all the way to CL 20, but yes, that would be a useful investment. Hmm, Strand of Prayer Beads = 25800 gp. Take off the Bead of Healing (-9000 gp) and the Bead of Smiting (-16800 gp) to leave just the Bead of Karma = 25800 - 9000 - 16800 = 0 gp . I'll take a few thousand of those for +4 caster level all day long, please. As strange as it seems, this has not been errataed,
... which is one of the things a DM is for....

but I won't object to paying the 20000 cost that is indicated by the reduction for when the Bead of Karma is missing.

That works.

Now I just need to learn Righteous Might so I can craft it. I haven't used the option of switching out a spell known on level up to 14th yet, can I do that now?
Yeah; sure. I'm flexible. I'm slightly curious, too, as to what you will be swapping out....

I can already craft the Ioun Stone, as no requirement beyond caster level 12 and Craft Wondrous Item is listed for any of them.
Yes, you can.
