[QUOTE="Targos, post: 2608970, member: 2655"] It think it depends on how much cash the artificer has. Item making is what they're good at and likewise affecting items. Any other caster can make use of the same feats. Any other caster is going to have more wealth after crafting their own magic items as opposed to buying the same thing at market price. Now artificers get all the craft feats as bonus feats and they can make things two levels sooner albeit at a lower caster level. DCs from items are significantly lower than from casters as well. They can metamagic trigger wands, but that gets expensive. They are generally support & utility characters. Is a 3d6 fireball scroll at level 3 a problem (DC14)? Is a maximized metamagic'ed fireball wand a problem when he burns through wands four times as fast? In my opinion too much wealth is a problem for any PC, but moreso for those who craft for less than market price. [/QUOTE]
