[QUOTE="Janos Audron, post: 786529, member: 4649"] Yes, *but* you can not even cast a free Wish. 2000 XP is just very little, especially if you go epic and need to reduce those the Spell DCs, XP becomes a viable option. Since you can use it once/day, you can not use it for all your spells. If you craft however, you can't do anything else that day, which means that once/day is not a good limit... Ok, for *your* character, it may not be much, but to *most* epic characters it would be a world of difference... Well, I don't think that you can put feats in the requirement of an item. It's not a 3rd edition mechanic... 40 XP/day means that, if time is not a factor, you can craft for free. That alone makes it a bad idea. Further the spellcraft DC 60 is worth :):):):). An item of +100 Spellcraft just costs 2.000.000 GP. See where this is going? First make the Rod, then take you time to craft the +100 item, then craft everything for free. Now, *obviously* there needs to be a very heavy balancing factor. I think Spell Creation is only a secondary function of the rod, and because it is destroyed it is balanced *a bit*. I think you should post this question over at the Rules Forum, see what they have to say about it. [/QUOTE]
