[Players Chosen] Do You Have What It Takes To Join The Nameless Legion?

[Bront]

Not as RAW, though I'd think it's possable (I'd probably give 1% off per charge used, which is simple, and doesn't give you a 1 charge wand for 15 gold)

Harvy, you get a chance to look at Shadow? I'll likely be up for 30 min-1 hour more before I hit the hey, and then will likely not be on till late.

 

[Thanee]

More last minute changes ... is it possible to get a wand with less than 50 charges at reduced price? Common sense would indicate that many wands in the market are 'used'.

Yep, the DMG even lists the cost. Just calculate the appropriate fraction (i.e. multiply market price by number of charges and divide by 50).

I knew I shouldn't have looked only through the SRD. The 'fraction of charges' thing is how we've always done it, but with such strong focus on the RAW here I wasn't sure ...


Okay, unless there's more mistakes to be found Shackler is ready - should I post him to the Rogue's Gallery?

That explains why I've seen other DMs actualy say No it's not RAW. (I don't have the 3.5 DMG and haven't looked closely at the 3.0 one in ages).

 

[Thanee]

DMG 3.5 p.199 "Charged Magic Items", if you want to have it black on white.

I also get a fifth bonus language, but I don't know what to pick ... and I might add a few minor items from my last money.

Thanee is right, and though it might suck (sorry, Bront ), them's the rules. Shackler should get 3 bonus languages for the 17 Int he started with.

Yup, Thanee is right (again ). Just calculate the appropriate fraction (i.e. multiply market price by number of charges and divide by 50).

Sorry... work was crazy again today... but I am proofing now and will launch the lance soon!

Post away!

Like I said, I was ranting system wise, not lobying for a change. No problems

No problem. I'll be at work tonight, so hopefully the changes are pretty easy to deal with, at worst I'll have her fixed tomorow morning.

Yeah, and not having your character tweaked is no reason to not start the IC thread, so you can look for that soon too!

Now Calling Templar Lance!

Your IC thread is ready here: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=139798

And I am still in the middle of proofing Bront's character, but feel free to post in IC anyway!

Actually there are two statements made by the RAW - first the one I quoted above, citing the intelligence modifier at the begin of the game (as opposed to the 'prehistorical' first level) as the relevant number, taken directly from the description of the intelligence attribute.
Second there's the description of the speak language skill, where it says that characters starting at level 1 start with bonus languages equal to their int mod and says nothing about further automatic gains.

But such rules-lawyerish discussion gets us nowhere . I'll post Shackler with his three extra languages ...
