[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 1802844, member: 945"] The cost according to the Artificer's Handbook. use-activated, multi-charge item. The minimum is 10 charges (10 pieces of ammunition). 6 spell slots of silence. I see this as [i]silence[/i], not [i]ray of enfeeblement[/i]. I'm going to apply a -1 spell slot cost since it requires a ranged touch attack to use it. So, you could miss. Range increments are attributes of weapons, not of ammunition. [i]silence[/i] has a radius of 20' which we can use for this effect. The duration is based on the caster level. 1d6 minutes is really arbitrary. We'll go with the minimum for a 2nd level spell which is 3rd level. That's a 3 minute duration. 10gp(3 + 2 -1) * 5^2 = 40gp*25 = 1,000gp creation cost. That's a market value of 2,000gp. Now, that's the [i]silence[/i] spell, which is of course way more powerful than what you're talking about. That's also for 10 bullets. So, that's 100gp per bullet to have a silence effect on a slingstone. Which is way cool by any standard. If you create it with a [i]ray of enfeeblement[/i] (as written), the cost is as follows (caster level 3 to maintain a 3 minute duration): 10gp(3 + 1 -1) *5^2 = 30gp*25 = 750gp (or 75gp per bullet). Creating it with some variant [i]ray of enfeeblement[/i] that only affects the voice is probably about a -2 to the cost. 10gp(3+1-1) *3^2 = 30gp*9 = 270gp. Or, 27gp per bullet. That's creation cost. Market cost would be 54gp per bullet. Though I would round up to 55gp. [/QUOTE]
