[QUOTE="argo, post: 1291432, member: 5752"] And that rule is there to reflect the fact that people who are more skilled can finish the same project in less time. Look at it this way: compare a fairly well skilled blacksmith who has a +8 to his checks with your master blacsmith who has +20. They both take ten on their checks and the fair blacksmith (who barely makes the DC) takes 27 weeks while the master smith voluntairly raises the DC and finishes in only 17 weeks. How did he do it? I wold say that he uses complicated, advanced techniques to work faster. That seems to make perfect sense to me, the DC of the check reflects not so much the complexity of the item as the difficulty of the technique involved int crafting it. Items that are truly more complicated have that reflected in their price wich will affect the ammount of time required to craft them. I have some issues with the craft rules but this isn't one of them. [/QUOTE]
