[QUOTE="EPRock, post: 2141146, member: 11399"] Looking through many of the items in the SRD, how are minimum caster levels determined, as that is not defined in the item creation rules. Example that makes sense [i]Boots of Speed: As a free action, the wearer can click her boot heels together, enabling her to act as though affected by a haste spell for up to 10 rounds each day. The duration of the haste effect need not be consecutive rounds.

Here is an example that does not make sense [i]Boots of Elvenkind: These soft boots enable the wearer to move quietly in virtually any surroundings, granting a +5 competence bonus on Move Silently checks. Faint transmutation; CL 5th; Craft Wondrous Item, creator must be an elf; Price 2,500 gp;Weight 1 lb.[/i] CL 5th, should this not be CL 3rd as that is the minimum level for crafting a wondrous item, and there are no spell requirements? Anyone know how they figured these things out as I am looking for creating large numbers of unique items. [/QUOTE]
