I really like the Brute Gauntlets (Magic Item Compendium pg 83) for my character that I'm playing and for future characters or campaigns. However, they are really low level and I want to improve them so they are more useful to my character.
I know how I would like to improve them but can't figure out how to price them or how they got the base price listed. I've tried a number of different methods with no success (gotten close but not there). Here's the basics on what they do and their cost.
Hold 3 charges renewable each day
Morale bonuses apply to STR based skills, checks and damage for 1 round
1 charge =+2
2 charges = +3
3 charges = +4
Now this is nice but its basically a one time use item and I'd like to be able to use it a few more times a day...
Base price is 500gp and it uses Bulls Strength (3rd level caster) to make this.
Ideally I'd like the bonus to go to +6 and cost 5 charges and this to be useable at least 3 times per day (gloves have 15 total charges renewable each day). I'm not a budget so if it costs 20000gp to do it so be it.
Also please show how you got the price you did as this will have to be approved by my DM so i'd like something to show him and not just pulling a number out of thin air. If you have any questions please feel free to ask and I will try to provide as much information as I can. If you need to alter the item (such as turn it into a wand or just make it a generic item property feel free) All ideas are welcome. End goal is to get a Base Price (usually considered market price by most) for this newly enhanced item.
Thank you all in advance for any ideas you have.
