[QUOTE="Evilhalfling, post: 2090006, member: 16991"] Thanks CZ :) Yes I know, a wand of heal is out. but in my mind staves are articfacts of rare power that represent a wizard/priest at the top of his game. The crunch of 3.5 supports this by saying basically "so you think you could cast it better? go ahead. " If the staff is only used for one power it looses the unique excitement of the item, it might as well be a flavorless wand. They are usefull I will admit that, but nothing special. As to the latest revison - the cure moderate for 1 charge or heal for two that looks like a tough decision, both have their uses and drawbacks ;) but is anyone going to burn off 4 charges off this lovely item for a greater restore? a normal restore costs 100gp per spell and almost as good - heal would fix almost anything this misses the only exception I found is 1 drained level instead of all drrained levels, but you could burn 4 ch of restore or one greater. so its price would be Masterwork Quarterstaff (300gp) GP cost 100*50 = 5000 Primary Spell: CMWM (375xspell levelxcaster level) 375x6x15 =33750 Secondary Spell: Heal (375xspell levelxcaster levelx.75) 375x6x15x.75= 25312.5 Takes 2 charges to activate = 12656.25 Tertiary Spell: Restoration (375xspell levelxcaster levelx.5) 375x4x15x.5= 11250 Total 75,612 gp value to create (37,306 gp +3012 xp) - 4000 gp less base price if you make heal the primary spell. Ow. well I must have gone wrong some where. P.S. oooh your caster level is only 11th (no 7th lvl spells) but I am to tired to refigure math. erm why did you use 15th? you could have used 13th instead. If the wielder is higher level he can use it instead anyway. EDIT : Aprox 55,000 base price - this I would use in a game, cept I don't paly many high lvl games. [/QUOTE]
