[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 1193012, member: 2011"] Are you sure that magic armor radiates an Abjuration Aura? If it did, then magic armor, shields and weapons within 10 feet of one another for 24 hours would create barely visible energy flucuations (as per the Abjuration rules). And if magic armor radiates Abjuration, what does magic weapons radiate? All of the short term give enhancement bonus to weapons or armor spells are Transmutation (since they change the properties of the item, just like Magic Armor or Weapons change the properties of the masterwork armor or weapon). Is the Light generated from magic weapons Evocation? One of the biggest flaws in the item creation rules. You can craft weapons and armor without knowing a single spell that has anything to do with Abjuration/Transmutation (or magic weapons or armor for that matter). For example, a Specialist Wizard with abjuration or transmutation (or Evocation with regard to a weapon that gives off light) as his prohibited class can still craft (according to the rules) magic weapons and armor if he has the Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat (and the proper masterwork weapon or armor). Without associating a school and a spell to the creation of magic weapons and armor, they made it totally haphazard as to who could accomplish it. Quite frankly, there are some Specialist Wizards who should not be able to do that (but can if they take the feat). So is +2 armor. Just because it is in the game does not mean that the DM will allow a player to craft it (minimally, he could make the thousands of GPs of required material nearly impossible to acquire). [/QUOTE]
