This is assuming that you are squaring the competence bonus and multiplying by 100gp. You are mistaken. This would be for one SPECIFIC craft skill, not for EVERY SINGLE craft skill.There is a spell that gives you a +5 competence bonus to craft skills (The MAGECRAFT spell I believe, I dont have the eberron book handy). Since I believe it has no duration (ie. one craft check) i will price it as if it lasted one round. That creates the following item: Gloves of the Magewright: This pair of attractive leather gloves are covered in almost imperceptible runes and fit so snugly that it is difficult to feel them while they are worn . When worn while making something, they grant the user a +5 competence bonus on Craft checks.Faint Alteration; CL 3rd; Craft Wondrous Item, magecraft; Price 6,000 gp; Weight ½ lb.Something that grants any one of the Artisan feats would easily be 5 times this price. I would put the price for those items at easily 20 times this one and it'd needs be epic.Bands of the Extraordinary Artisans: This pair of mithril rings, while worn one on each hand, allows a magewright to craft items with inordinate alacrity and deftness, reducing the amount of time it takes to create an object by 25%. This time reduction compounds other abilities that may further reduce crafting time.Strong Alteration; CL 18rd; Craft Wondrous Item, magecraft, creator must possess Extraordinary Artisan feat; Price 625,000 gp; Weight * lb.Note: do not ADD the 25% bonuses to get 50% time reduction. Instead, reduce the base amount by 25%, and then reduce that amount by another 25%. If I calculated correctly.. this amounts to 56.25% of the original time.I believe this is much more like it.. Anyone disagree? I dont see why one may not be able to lower the level requirement.. it was arbitrary anyway... but beware what it may cause.</blockquote>
