Dispel magic (arcane vs. divine and vice versa) - Time for a littel :) Shouldn't be not possible that an arcane can dispel a divine magic and If a can cast only spells from his/her spell list, how can he/her effects from spells that are even..

Dispel Magic can be used against a magic item to suppress it for 1d4
rounds. The dispeller makes a dispel check against 11 + the item's
caster level. (Artifacts are specifically listed as being immune)

Reference: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/dispelMagic.htm

For normal magic items, the caster level is spelled out in the DMG entry.

However, for Weapons of Legacy, no such caster level is provided.

I see a couple of options:

1) Items of Legacy are essentially artifacts and cannot be dispelled.

2) Items of Legacy have a caster level that is "high" (perhaps epic).

Anyone got an opinion either way? Any rules address this situation?

I'd gauge theme as artifacts, and immune.

legacy weapons are already so screwed up, may as well throw them a bone and
give them immunity to this.
