Mushroom armour, comments welcome

[Ferret]

Using the 3.5 creation rules I get this price, I think it's a ripoff but maybe I'm used to cheap items? What doyou think?

Mushroom armour: Crafted by the most skilled leather workers and herbalists this Mushroom armour has all the qualities of a masterwork padded armour. Whilst mainly used by Svirfneblin, it is also produced by Myconoids; some has even filtered up to the surface. It has a constant Glitterdust effect; however it does not produce the blindness effect, instead the spores it exudes drowsiness.

Faint Conjuration; Caster level 5th; Craft Magic Arms and Armour, Glitterdust; Price 87,500; Cost ???

It's a ripoff.

I'll give it to you for 27k, that sound good?

Maybe I'm wrong, but my math shows:

Masterwork Padded Armor - 155 gp

Continous Glitterdust at 5th caster level - 20,000 gp (x1.5 for being a limited slot item)

so.. 30,155 gp should be right.. ? I think?

Why would anyone want armor that grants them a -40 to Hide?

And upon further thought...

The armor has very little effect, mechanically speaking. You say it exudes a constant glitterdust, but without the blinding effect, so it only offers the -40 to Hide checks. Then, you state it causes drowsiness... which has no in-game effect whatsoever.

Well dwarven mascots can stand outside of McFungal's with it offering samples

This is how I figured it out: 5*2*2000(A continous effect on a second level spell)*4(for how long it normally lasts)+5*1/2*.75*2000(Lullaby)

Thats how I figured it. I didn't make it with any kind of purpose.
