[QUOTE="Syndrome, post: 2256447, member: 31256"] Draconomicon has a spell called Lower Spell Resistance at 4th level; Fort Negates, lowers SR for the target creature by 1/caster level (Max 15), lasts 1 min/level, SR: No, and has a range of Close. As a single shot item that would not be too expensive to make for an arrow. Using the rules for item creation in the DMG I'd price each such arrow as: Spell Effect (Use Activated): Spell level 4th x 7th Caster Level x50 GP=1400 GP base, plus the cost of a +1 magical arrow so that it will hold the enchantment of the effect. 50 +1 arrows run about 2350 GP so about 47 GP per arrow. Net cost is 1447 GP before anything else like special materials, and assuming you only want a +1 arrow. This is a fairly weak lower resistance though, only -7 to SR.
