[QUOTE="Evilhalfling, post: 1932204, member: 16991"] If you can check out the rules for Dragoncraft armor from the Draconomicon It adds cost but provides 5 energy reduction for that energy tye. The armor also has armor check and/or dex mod benifits (I have forgotten) over the PH armor list. I think your system is a little to random, as in most campaigns people will not be killing enormus numbers of dragons, and it does not balance benifits for cost as does all other D&D item creation rules. Nift - Is any of the costs you listed made up for by the fact you are using actual dragon hide? or are these costs in addtion to the value of the hide itself. Also do you use size limitations based on the size of the dragon killed, per MM? IMC the 5 pts of elemental reistance also reduce the cost to add 10 by 1/2 - and the armor has a +1 natural enchancement. (+2 for Dragons with NAC of above +20) what this really does is equalize the substandard types of armor that dragon hide makes - i.e. Hide and 1/2 plate with what the PC's would prefer i.e. chain shirt and full plate.
