I am trying to plan-ahead and figure out which feats I want for my character. I was considering an Item-creation feat (not Scribe Scroll) like Forge Ring, for example. I was simply trying to consider the advantages of taking such a feat.
I mean, sure you can make your own stuff (maybe even customize it), but why can't you simply spend more money and pay someone else to make any item you want? Plus, you've got to use your own XP, not to mention find the time and create it, using a lab that you can't take with you (or at least carry around).
Does anyone have any characters that have Item-creations feats? Have they been very advantageous? I could see they could be VERY useful if the DM basically created a world in which magic items were incredibly rare and the only way to easily get them would be to make them yourself.
Any thoughts?
