[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9317588, member: 58172"] By the way, for DMs. I sometimes refer to the indy pdf, [URL='https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8XAiXpOfz9cMWt1RTBicmpmUDg/view?resourcekey=0-ceHUken0_UhQ3Apa6g4SJA'][I]Sane Magical Prices[/I][/URL]. (The pdf is anonymous but is apparently the work of [URL='https://forums.giantitp.com/showthread.php?424243-Sane-Magic-Item-Prices']Inconnunom[/URL]?) These "sane" prices, and more importantly their corresponding Rarity, are helpful when deciding how powerful a magic item actually is. In my settings, it is impossible to buy and sell magic items, except for Common items. Items generally refuse to attune, undermining their marketability. Generally, a transfer of items correlates with "services" on behalf of the original item creator, which attunement makes known. So, crafting a magic item oneself is the way to get a specific sought-after item! As a rule-of-thumb, the Rarity correlates with the tier that the item becomes and attunable and craftable. Levels 1 thru 4: Common Levels 5 thru 8: Uncommon Levels 9 thru 12: Rare Levels 13 thru 16: Very Rare Levels 17 thru 20: Unique (Legendary) A DM can make exceptions, but then is closely monitoring it in the context of game balance.
