hi
I'm a bit confused anyone can give me an explanation how to create magic items with the immortal system, because i see different for the normal method
I'm playing an artificer from eberron and have been some questions about that
like if apply AMC, the spell level and stuff...
this is ability is from the artificer:
Item Creation (Ex): An artificer can create a magic
item even if he does not have access to the spells that are
prerequisites for the item. The artificer must make a successful
Use Magic Device check (DC 20 + caster level) to
emulate each spell normally required to create the item.
Thus, to make a 1st-level wand of magic missile, an artificer
would need a Use Magic Device check result of 21 or
higher. To create a bottle of air (caster level 7th), he would
need a check result of 27 or higher to emulate the water
breathing prerequisite.
The artificer must make a successful check for each
prerequisite for each item he makes. If he fails a check,
he can try again each day until the item is complete (see
Creating Magic Items, page 282 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide).
If he comes to the end of the crafting time and he has still
not successfully emulated one of the powers, he can make
one fi nal check—his last-ditch effort, even if he has already
made a check that day. If that check also fails, then the creation
process fails and the time, money, and XP expended
to craft the item are lost.
For purposes of meeting item prerequisites, an
artificer’s effective caster level equals his artificer level
+2. If the item duplicates a spell effect, however, it uses
the artificer’s actual level as its caster level. Costs are always
determined using the item’s minimum caster level or the
artificer’s actual level (if it is higher). Thus, a 3rd-level
artificer can make a scroll of fireball, since the minimum
caster level for fireball is 5th. He pays the normal cost for
making such a scroll with a caster level of 5th: 5 × 3 × 12.5
= 187 gp and 5 sp, plus 15 XP. But the scroll’s actual caster
level is only 3rd, and it produces a weak fi reball that deals
only 3d6 points of damage.
An artificer can also make Use Magic Device checks
to emulate nonspell requirements, including alignment
and race, using the normal DCs for the skill. He cannot
emulate skill or feat requirements, however, including
item creation feat prerequisites. He must meet the caster
level prerequisite, including the minimum level to cast a
spell he stores in a potion, wand, or scroll.
An artificer’s infusions do not meet spell prerequisites
for creating magic items. For example, an artificer
must still employ the Use Magic Device skill to emulate the
light spell to create a wand of light, even though light appears
on his infusion list.
