Message: <blockquote data-quote="ashockney" data-source="post: 1398629" data-attributes="member: 1363">In our world, wished items/effects, are always temporary.  They are drawing on this power of the wish (from the SRD):• Create a magic item, or add to the powers of an existing magic item.Which costs this:When a wish creates or improves a magic item, you must pay twice the normal XP cost for crafting or improving the item, plus an additional 5,000 XP.The powers/items are NEVER needed permanently.  Just for the encounter in question.Typically we've gone by the following guidelines:• Create a nonmagical item of up to 25,000 gp in value.As a rule of thumb for wish, this is about as tough as I'll let a wish get when it comes to temporarily duplicating the effects of an item.  Limited wish is half that (12,250gpv).So, they limited wished for a Golembane Scarab, which has the following power:  A scarab enables its possessor to combat golems with weapons, unarmed attacks, or natural weapons as if those golems had no damage reduction.  And, the cost on the thing is only: Price 2,500 gp.They wished for the following enhancement to their weapon (from the sunblade, SRD): Against Negative Energy Plane creatures or undead creatures, the sword deals double damage (and x3 on a critical hit instead of the usual x2).The sunblade has a 50,335gpv, but that's with it being a +2/+4 weapon, and a granted "sunlight" power in addition to the ability to crit undead.It's actually very similiar to your party using miracle to alter their weapons to ghost touch. Wicked tough.  But, well within the bounds, I think, without too much "house-ruling".</blockquote>
