recommendation for eyepiece between 42mm and 22mm

i've spent the last few nights in Perth doing a lot of DSO gazing and found myself predominantly using my LVW 42mm and Pentax XW 20mm the most.

Occasionally i changed out to the LVW 17mm but that was fairly infrequent.

I find myself enjoying the 42mm - 20mm range the most at the moment, so my question is, what would you recommend around the 30mm size for an additional eyepiece?

FYI - i really like the darker background and contrast of the XW eyepieces, however the viewing comfort of the Vixen LVW is just sublime.

Ideally I want something that shares both those characteristics Probably something that will give me around 100x magnification (scope is 2800mm f/l).

any suggestions?

cheers
