[QUOTE="Cabral, post: 35384, member: 1193"] I doubled again because I was assuming that cost for a weapon was based on weapons effectively not taking up a slot. You could conceivalby carry several versions of a +10 longsword (Ie, +1 to +5 with the remaining in enchantments) and use whichever is most appropriate to the situation. Now, perhaps it counts as an item that takes up a slot since an attack roll is never (I think!) affected by more than one weapon. Well that puts my version at: +2 weapon = 8,000 Holy Sword = 56,000 * .7 = 39,200 SR 15 = 30,000 * .7 = 21,000 +4 Deflection AC = 32,000 * .7 = 22,400 +4 Resistance Save = 16,000 * .7 = 11,200 [b]Total[/b] = [b]101,800 +315[/b] Is that appropriate? Is my alternate less powerful than the baseline Holy Avenger? (Side note: the second variation would cost 215,200 + 315; which I think to be a bit over priced. Also the cost for the [i]Holy Sword[/i] enchantment maybe off. Since it requires a 14th level Paladin (or a [i]limited wish[/i], [i]wish[/i], or [i]miracle[/i]), the caster level is 7th. Now I'm mostly positive that results in 4 [spell level] * 7 [caster level] * 2000 = 56,000 gp. However, I couldn't find where exactly it said that (or was it just the use of caster level in the charts?). [/QUOTE]
