If you *never* add temp hit points together why does it say "from different sources" ?

By my reckoning, the 26500gp cost of a suit of Mithral Full Plate of Speed is made up as follows: 1500 for a Suit of Full Plate 9000 for Mithral/Masterwork 16000 for +1 enhancement, and +3 "Speed" special ability. =26500gp "Speed" is not listed in the table of armor special abilities, but...

Do you think a cleric's holy symbol could be a Periapt of Wisdom too? My cleric, flavour text wise, wears his Iron Fist of Krom around his neck, along with his Periapt of Wisdom. This keeps it handy for when he needs it. Holy Symbols don't take up magic item slots afaik, and I presume it is...

True strike used in such a manner is cheese. There are many ways true strike can be abused whilst "following the rules exactly". It is just one of those spells that needs to be priced higher when you put it on items.

There are twelve item slots. How many of us actually have characters with all twelve slots filled? I know I don't. If there are still slots free, then items that avoid taking a slot aren't that great. (All this is ignoring affinities, of course.)

Not as far as I know.

1. I think there is a principle (not sure where it is stated) that stat booster items should only grant bonuses in multiples of two (+2, +4 etc). This is true of all stat boosters at least in the core books. This prevents the item from functioning differently depending on whether your stats...

Thanks for that everyone. I think I'll leave it there, because I was pretty much trying to say that the craft rules seemed "wonky" as I understood them. Thanks for the tips on speeding things up. In fact, given that downtime normally only takes the DM to say "a year passes...." I guess...

My character has craft(weaponsmithing) of 13, and wants to make an adamantine greatsword for himself. I have worked out, however, that it will take me a over a year to complete. Here's my calculations so you can tell me if I've missed or misinterpreted something. The cost of a adamantine...

Hi Everyone. I have come here to ask a few rules questions, which I will do ASAP in the rules forum. I've read quite a few threads here in the past and always been very entertained and impressed by the amount of collective knowledge on display (and I might say equally struck by the general...
