Longsword +1, Undead Bane, wielder gains benefits of Death Ward spell for duration of combat against undead opponents only (i.e. the wielder is not immune to a Finger of Death spell cast by a living cleric). The sword can only be wielded by a Cleric of a campaign-specific deity.

Base price = 8,315 gp

Use-activated or continuous spell effect (Death Ward) = 4 x 7 x 2000 = 56,000 gp

Sub-total = 64,315 gp

Class-specific = -30%

Total = 45,021 gp

Does this look right? What about the fact that the Death Ward isn't really continuous; it's only continuous against undead...

I'd drop the cost of the deathward as it is fairly limited in scope (undead only). I'd go with 35,000 or so rather than 56,000. A very nice idea though....

Death Ward is a minute per level, so its 4 x 7 x 2000 x 2 = 112000
So, 120315 -30% = 84,220 gp

Ouch. I'd give it a fairly sizeable discount for being useful vs undead only tho, perhaps 50k-60k
