There is no provision in the standard rules for making magic items that give non-enhancement bonuses to stats. I would strongly advise against allowing them and here is the reason why:

Belt of Epic Strength: +12 Enhancement bonus to strength, 1,440,000gp

Belt of Not Epic Strength: +6 Morale Bonus to Strength, + 6 Enhancement bonus to strength. (6^2 x 2,000 x 2 + 6^2 x 2,000 x 1.5) 126,000gp

They do the same thing, but one is less than a 10th the cost of the other.

That's a funny rationale, since I got the idea from your cloak of resistance +15 that costs less than a cloak +6. But I'll edit the bonuses away tomorrow.

Ah, yes, I even felt a little guilty about that. But, there are provisions in the rules for making non-standard bonuses to saves and bonuses to armor class.

That's very naughty Wrahn. I think I feel tears forming... :(

One - Cool, looking forward to seeing your characters.

You know, I went out for breakfast this morning and I was considering whether or not I should be feeling guilty about a magic item. So I came back and changed it.

Then I read this post. Karma, I am telling you.

I should also note that I switched out two levels of bard for two levels of Holy Liberator and I have about 150k to spend now.

It's the endless stacking for small amount of cash that makes me weep. So if you can find a way to do that doesn't involve buying 20 different types of +2 bonuses at 4,000gp, then I'd be happier.

Well actually I was just going to go for a +6 Insight bonus to Int and a +6 Enhancement bonus to Int. That one item is crushing the gold out of me. I wanted to make a piece or two of my equipment a tattoo like item but I couldn't afford it.
