[QUOTE="Wasqa, post: 5865185, member: 6683609"] Hello all. I hope here are veteran Magic Items crafters here who could give me a hand. I am entering an existing High Magic campaign at 10th level. I was allocated 49,000 gp to spend on equipment. The only imitations are that I use Item Level rule (a.e. no one single item can has a market price higher then 6,500 gp) The only exception was I could get a Weapon with +2 bonus. As you can see I have plenty of cash for all sorts of Magic items. Also my DM does not limit us to the Magic Items from the books. If someone can make a custom magic item, then you could buy it at the Market Price. I am trying to create some magic items and I think I am doing it wrong the Market Prices seem too low. I went over the Magic Item Creation in DMG like 300 times. Maybe you can help me figure it out on how to make it right. For example: I want to have an item that has a continuous Spell Effect of the spell level 1 Sorc/Wiz spell Shield. According to DMG Table 7-33 (p.285) The Market Price formula below: [INDENT]Spell Effect Use-activated or continuous => Spell Level x Caster Level x 2,000 gp => 1 x 1 x 2,000 = 2,000 gp.[/INDENT] (There is a subscript stating, "If a continuous item has an effect is based on the spell with a duration measured in rounds, multiply the cost by 4. If duration of the spell 1 minute/level, multiply the cost by 2, and if the duration 10 minutes/level, multiply the cost by 1.5. If the spell has 24-hour duration or greater, divide the cost in half.") So based on that I figured the Market Cost of the Rig of Shield would be 1 x 1 x 2,000 x 2 totaling 4,000 gp. Would 4,000 gp be the correct price of the Ring or Bracer with the continuous effect of the spell Shield? Here are some other items I am trying to figure out the Market Price: [LIST] [*]Gloves, Ring, or Bracer with a continuous spell effect of 1st level Sorc/Wiz spell "Fist of Stone" SC p.94. [*]Ring or Bracer with a use-activated (3/day or unlimited use) spell effect of 2nd level Sorc/Wiz spell "Heroics" SC p.113. [*]Belt of Enlarge Person - use activated (3/day or unlimited use) [/LIST] Appreciate your help. [/QUOTE]
