Buying Magic Bolts

[The_Magician]

I am creating a character and thought about giving him some magic bolts. Searched the list and found the Screaming Bolt:

Now, here comes the question: Is 267gp the price for a single bolt?

 

[diaglo]

yes.

Thanks, but I got both Yes and No from a lot of people and it all comes down to the fact that the rules aren't clear enough. I was hoping someone would clear that up instead.

The cost calculates just like the cost for a magic weapon, but for 50 projectiles.

The 267 gp should thus be 1/50th of the cost of an equivalent magic weapon.

same reason a mw arrow costs so much...

7 gp x 50 = 350 gp...

a mw weapon = 300 gp + cost of weapon.

so 267 gp x 50 = 13350gp... 350gp for the mw nature. 8000gp for the +2. 50 x 100gp for the spell = 5000gp


it is 267gp for a single +2 screaming bolt.

Agree, that's a single bolt.
