Boots of Levitation

[Phil85]

I used them one time in combat. My ranger was hit at range then the levitation stopped working and he fell. For the next 5 fights, I don't have the option to use the boots. Is the refresh time one hour real time or game time? If it's game time, something is wrong, because I can't activate the boots now. He's wearing them and they are attuned to him.

Remove attunement and re-attune?

if you mouse over the item it will tell you how much longer it need to recharge

Thanks, I just confirmed that. So if my concentration breaks, I have to wait another hour to use the boots? Now if I used invisibility on the ranger, would he be safe from interruption while levitating?

Can you move or is it just going up and down in elevation like the spell? I only use the spell in an offensive way I find it to risky to try and get an offensive advantage with it.

I was only able to go up and down with the boots. My plan was to try to have my ranged members keep away from melee with levitate. Maybe throw some invisibility on them to protect them from ranged fire too.

It might work I haven't seen an enemy use detect invisibility but I wouldn't be surprised I also haven't used it much.

Unless you have greater invisibility (L4 Wiz Spell) your invisibility will dispel as soon as you attack someone.

Another way to avoid melee with some enemies: Spider Climb Slippers. Don't require attunement or concentration, and with planer targeting you can pick an arbitrary spot on a wall and stand there. Of course, many enemies have range attacks, and there aren't always walls you can stand on away from melee range.
