[QUOTE="Nail, post: 1093000, member: 224"] Uhmmm. Huh? I [i]think[/i] you're saying that the boots cost 360 gp per use per day, which is correct (obviously). Still, the boots are command word activated, rather than use activated, so being able to use them 5 times per day would be 1800gp. As to whether or not they are the [i]right[/i] price, given the rules:[list][*]Of course these boots are not in the DMG. That's why my PC [i]creates[/i] them. [*]There are rules for creating magic items in the DMG. They are therefore not "house rules". Items created using these rules are not "house rules" any more than creating a gnomish barbarian character is a "house rule". [*]Of course you can "rule zero" this item. That's the DM's perogative. [*]The DMG says that you should compare the item's price with others. [u]I get that.[/u] I'm claiming that if you do so for this item, you find it's "close" to reasonable. I would agree it might be a few hundred short. [*]Items like my boots show a flaw in the item pricing system: Spells with the "Target: Personal" descriptor should have some additional cost.[/list] [/QUOTE]
