Correct.

Also, in case anyone does not know, I allow you to make your own dice rolls on invisible castle if you want to. I'll roll anything that's not posted though.

I was in the middle of the update and just recieved a phone call that my subleaser ran out on his room and now I'm stuck trying to find a new tenant. Sorry about that, I'll have to delay until later tonight.

Is everything ok?
Are we waiting for a particular response?

I'd like to make use of the dragonhide banded mail; one of the benefits of such armor is that druids can wear it as if it were metal, which otherwise they can't. So more ac for me! (the dragoncraft is too expensive imo to be worth the 5 fire resist and being able to run. Better to find a wizard to enchant the dragonhide I think)


Creamsteak: Would the dragoncraft banded mail, brass, count as metal armor for the purposes of a Druid?

 

[Creamsteak]

The weapons and armor are seperate entities.

The brass dragoncraft banded mail works for druids. Dragoncraft is essentially intended to be "better" dragonhide armor made only by a particular kind of craftsman.

I think the math will be a bit more complicated. We should factor in the price of items being claimed as well (4200 gp for the sword, minus the 1200 for your tradein which I'll pay for, for example.)

Fair enough. Though I'm not sure how you find the price of selling an item; the +2 greatsword was listed as 8000gp before (8350 really since that cost would include a masterwork greatsword base item), but then you list it as 4200 selling. So I'll just assume it's 50% the cost then for selling.

[sblock=Prices when selling loot]Total loot:
A large decorative wooden holy symbol that once adorned a cathedral of the shield maiden worth 200 gp (50 lbs.)
A strange circular painting damaged by the sand, but potentially valuable if restored worth 350 gp (30 lbs. with frame, 1 lb. rolled up)
A ornate religious tapestry worth 150 gp (10 lbs.)
A decorative darkwood staff with a permanent flame on each end worth 400 gp (6 lbs.)
A mysterious decorative floor-rug made from various materials worth 450 gp (30 lbs.)
4 yellow Topazes (1200 gp)
+2 Greatsword (4175gp)
Cloak of Elvenkind (1250gp)
Boots of Elvenkind (1250gp)
3,000 silver+3,000 silver (600gp)
650 gold+650 gold (1300gp)
85 platinum+85 platinum (1700gp)
Wand of Melf's Acid Arrow (40 charges): (1800gp)
Third Eye (Concentrate): 5,000
Arcane Scroll (bestow curse, shadow conjuration, animate dead) (350+350+525=1225)
Figurine of wondrous power, obsidian steed (14250gp)[/sblock]

Total value of loot: 21,050gp
Total / 4 = 5262.5gp
That doesn't include the figurine. I'm not sure if we're keeping it or selling it, but I'd guess we'll keep it and all use it equally.

So Slisik would take the +2 greatsword for 4175gp, leaving 1087.5gp of his share left. He takes that as: 2 scrolls (bestow curse and shadow conjuration), and 3875sp. That accounts for his share.
He then spends 212.5gp on the dragonhide armor (including trade-in), using 2125sp. When all is said and done, Slisik has 1750sp, 2 scrolls (which he pretty much intends to sell), a +2 greatsword, and Dragonhide Banded Mail. He loses his +1 Studded Leather Armor, and his old +1 greatsword if Errol wants it (Slisik will charge only 1/4 price for it, so 587.5gp)

Final distribution
Slisik: +2 Greatsword, Scroll of Bestow Curse, Scroll of Shadow Conjuration, 3875sp.
Errol: Has 5262.5gp worth of loot to claim. If he intends to buy Slisik's +1 greatsword, it will cost 587.5gp.
Veris: Boots of Elvenkind, Cloak of Elvenkind, 4 topaz, Scroll of Animate Dead, 100pp, 37gp, 5sp.
Tesla: Eye of Concentration. She has 262.5gp of treasure left to claim in the dragon's hoard.

I hope that's fair. Please do let me know if anyone sees something wrong with these values, or if they just object to the entire idea.

[Nephtys]

I suppose Veris could take the scroll of Animate Dead (it has little pure combat-value but could be useful for rp) and some platinum. She could also carry the cloak of elvenkind (since it's lighter than it's value in gold) until she can trade it in for an item she needs.

 

[Dekana]

I propose that the dragon's hoard be distributed as such:

Slisik: +2 Greatsword, Holy Symbol, 289gp, 5985sp.
Errol: Sand-Damaged Painting, Flame-enchanted Darkwood Staff, Floor Rug, Wand of Melf's Acid Arrow, Scroll of Bestow Curse, Scroll of Shadow Conjuration, 70pp, 862gp, 5sp.
Veris: Boots of Elvenkind, Cloak of Elvenkind, 4 topaz, Scroll of Animate Dead, 100pp, 37gp, 5sp.
Tesla: Eye of Concentration, an Ornate Religious Tapestry, 112gp, 5sp.


Errol - Slisik will be happy to take heavier items in payment for the +1 greatsword, or a bundle of gold. He can carry quite a bit.

 

[Redclaw]

(I think these calculations are more accurate than my own, as I forgot to add in the mastwork weapon prices, and I didn't divide the artwork in half.)

I was figuring on hauling it all back as a group, then deciding how to split it up. I'm happy selling off most of my share and seeing about getting some useful magic items to boost my effectiveness in combat.

Errol will certainly take the +1 greatsword, but he's more than happy to pay it's actual resale value, so he will give Slisik 1175 gp from his share, leaving Errol with 4087.5. He will take that money and search for magic items.

CS, what is the range of value I'm likely to find here? I'd love guantlets of Dex +2, or an amulet of natural armor +1.
