[QUOTE="Nifft, post: 3271731, member: 6562"] Woah there! No more personal psychoanalysis, please. In a word: [b]sure[/b]. Why not? The magic items in the DMG should be the best that's available. PCs should be able to create new ones if they wish, but [u]not better ones[/u]. Price is one way to make an item worse. A price like that is just a way of saying "no", and that's something he's allowed to say. It's hard for a good DM to say "no" to his players when they want to do something creative, even when the voice in the back of your head tells you that they're trying to pull something. This guy can go back to his group armed with the knowledge that many others not only agree with saying "no", but back it up with halfway reasonable math. Personally, I'd just say "no" directly, and tell them to stock up on wands of cure light wounds. Cheers, -- N [/QUOTE]
