[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 382230, member: 2829"] Yes, it can be done, it's just a little trickier with specefic items (for me, anyway). First, you need to break down the cost of the item. I'll show you what I mean by breaking down the cost of Celestial armor: Celestial armor: 23,500gp ------------------------------------------ masterwork chainmail = 300gp +1 enhancement = 1,000gp other enhancements = 24,000gp Basically, you need to do this because you only pay the difference (upgrade cost) between the old item and the new. Now, what you want to do is increase the enhancement bonus of the armor. The cost of a +2 armor enhancement is 4,000gp. The difference between the cost of a +1 enhancement and +2 enhancement is (4,000gp - 1,000gp) 3,000gp. That's your upgrade cost. Now, what's the total cost of the armor? Here's the new price breakdown: masterwork chainmail = 300gp +2 enhancement = 4,000gp other enhancements = 24,000gp ------------------------------------------ Celestial armor: 28,300gp There ya' go. :) [/QUOTE]
