It grants a +8 armor bonus to the wearer, and when worn with the hood drawn over the head, grants a +10 competence bonus on Hide checks.Listed (and 3.0) Price: 68,000 gparmor bonus, 8 x 8 x 1000 = 64,000; hide bonus, 10 x 10 x 20 x 2 (secondary power) = 4,0003.5 Price (using only the sidebar): 79,000 gparmor bonus, 8 x 8 x 1000 = 64,000; hide bonus, 10 x 10 x 100 x 1.5 (secondary power) = 15,0003.5 Price (using only the table): 138,000 gparmor bonus, 8 x 8 x 1000 x 2 (higher power doubled for multiple powers) = 128,000; hide bonus, 10 x 10 x 100 = 10,0003.5 Price (using both the table and the sidebar): 143,000 gparmor bonus, 8 x 8 x 1000 x 2 (higher power doubled for multiple powers) = 128,000; hide bonus, 10 x 10 x 100 x 1.5 (secondary power) = 15,000Those are some _huge_ differences. But that's nothin'. Check this out...Robe of Blending (Listed Price): 30,000 gpdisguise self at will, 1 x 10 x 2000 (not a continuous item, so no multiplier) = 20,000; hide bonus, 10 x 10 x 100 = 10,000The robe of blending in the DMG doesn't follow the table, the sidebar, or even 3.0. Interesting, no?</blockquote>
