[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 55532, member: 2829"] See previous post. And sorry about this spelling (rough morning). This was from my post BEGIN Bottom line: A dragon meets all the requirements to qualify for item creation feats, they also earn plenty of skill points for spellcraft, alchemy, etc. They also earn feats as they age. So, yes, a dragon can make magic items, but can they do that at ALL age categories? No. END Yes. I see monsters having XP, but as you can see from the quote from my post, you still have to be careful about their age category: they may not have the feats, skills, spells, or XP yet. The older the dragon the easier and more items they can make. Younger youngs, just like low level players, have a harder time because their skills are lower, they have less item creation feats, and most importantly, they have less XP to spend. Also, everyone needs to remember that you can't spend so much XP that you would lose a level. If someone argues this one, I'm gonna puke. :-) So, yeah, I agree. I said that in my post about Siymantecxhs. (Sorry, had to mess with ya.) What I was worried about was the direction this post was headed, which was: If a dragon has a spellcasting level of 19, they have 190,000 XP to spend! Cool! Nobody said that and it didn't actually go that far. Luckily. And besides, we are all helping each other out here, right? There isn't one person on these boards that knows everything. I though there was, then I proved him wrong 20 minutes after signing up here. Look, I'm just saying that none of us knows everything and I value everyone's opinion. Just trying to keep the discussion in focus, is all. [/QUOTE]
