    Paragon Multiclassing: What am I missing?

    Well, its a good thing no paragon path features give you that ability. You don't end up with a level 7 paladin power, you switch it out. I was under the impression that spellbook was just for dailies and not utilities. And you don't get the spellbook ability if you multi-class into wizard.

    Paragon Multiclassing: What am I missing?

    Yes, but trading a level 12 terrible utility for a level 10 good utility is a lot different from trading a level 16 or 22 for a 10.

    Paragon Multiclassing: What am I missing?

    Paragon multi-classing is only bad if you really need the paragon path powers. In the end, its actually slightly more powerful, especially for a human since they get three at wills they can easily swap one of their primary at wills for one from their secondary classes. In the most cases...

    Oh noes .. more Daggermaster cheese? (Warlock)

    Here is the relavent text "A warlock wielding a magic rod or wand can use its enhancement bonus to the attack and damage rolls if warlock powers as well as warlock paragon path powers that have the implement keyword" "A pact blade[...] can also be used as an implement[for those powers]" It...

    Oh noes .. more Daggermaster cheese? (Warlock)

    You do not gain extra critical range when using a weapon as an implement. You are using a spell through the implement and not using the weapon. Just as you do not receive proficiency bonuses if you are proficient with a weapon when using it as an implement you do not receive any other bonuses...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    That is not economics. That is being a skilled trader. Its like saying "i know about managing baseball teams, look at how well I play first base" You might do well playing as an individual actor in an economy. But that only means you are a rational actor and are good at bartering.

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    And if you don't have the crap that they want? And if there aren't many of them? And if they're unavailable? And if they won't hear random adventurers coming to sell them :):):):) just because? And I am saying its not, and anyone who knows anything about economics will tell you its not, and its...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    Uhhh, you realize that your "comparison" is hurting your argument. There is a limited number of +1 swords out there and you might not get the one you want. Just as there are a limited number of Ferrari. A Ferrari will get you to the grocery store faster, but its still a car. The +1 sword will...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    So now your argument is "I don't like the setting and want to change it so the rules which work perfectly fine(in both i might add) don't work anymore"? You have been presented with multiple instances where, in large, global, and developed economies you have the 20% sale/100% buy. You have been...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    Why? I have already explained to you how the economic model is consistent. You do not have to be stupid to make rational decisions based on the utility of cash now versus cash later. ed: Grabuto, now you are just being mean.

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    Its "points of light" not "huge swaths of light" or "points of darkness". Adventurers are few and far between. That is the point of them being adventurers and being special.

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    Its not a house rule, go read the skill challenges section. That is the entire point of having skill challenges, so you don't have to write down tables for every possible thing that a PC wants to do.

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    The definition of "supply and demand" is neither the definition for supply nor the definition for demand. Transactions costs. Do you understand them? "the Marble encrusted toilet" is not an aberration of supply and demand, but a factor of it. It has a low supply because its expensive to...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    They get there are there are three people. One offering 20% of the market price, one who wants to buy a +2 bloody leather armor of bleating and another one who will create a magic item at market price +10% mark up. Now you could set it up to sell by consignment but... that is a skill challenge...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    No, you're strawmanning. Its harder to roleplay mental stats higher than your own, congratulations. Now, when figuring out whether or not you do, you run a skill challenge. If your character succeeds you succeed. Now, you want to be a master trader, great, you get to run the skill challenges...

    As a real estate professional i will have you know that i can search, by myself, or by proxy databases of nearly every house for sale in the world and its asking price within a day. If its within my region, i can do it in 5 minutes. Fast travel is one thing, but its no internet. Sure they can...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    Now it becomes clear that you have no clue what supply and demand are. Supply is a line composed of all of the relative values of all the people in the land for the point at which they will sell some quantity of that item. Demand is the same, except its the buy value. Just because there is a...

    Selling items : illogical rule ?

    Indeed. Some people also know how to buy stuff. It seems like "selling something" is a skill challenge. And "selling something really expensive for as much as you could buy it" would be a really difficult one. Guess what, you get to role play this. You do not get to roll a die and say "well my...
