[QUOTE="Kerrick, post: 3631996, member: 4722"] Oy, I see now. LIke I said, it's been awhile since I've mesed around with magic items, but I've never seen this method used. It's a lot easier, IMO. Forgot the extra 8,000 for the double weapon, but I got all that. I thought spells were always priced off the lowest level anyone could cast them? The problem is, they're set at 15th level. Which means retributive strike is likely an 8th level power - about what Pyrex and I agreed on. So lessee... retributive strike: 8 x 15 x 375 = 45,000 gp Plane shift (we'll say L5): 5 x 15 x 375 = 28,125 x .75 = 21,093.75 x .5 (since it only works half the time) = 10,546 gp All spells (I'll lump them together to save space, since they all use the .5 multiplier): 122,343.75 gp Add that to the 34,000 for miscellaneous abilities, and we get a grand total of: 211,889 gp. Technically, it's still wrong, though, because we forgot the "blow a charge to deal double damage" ability, and the fact that there are several powers at L5, all of equal cost - so ALL of them would get the .75 multiplier, not just plane shift. It's too much of a headache to try to figure out the proper price for this thing, though... all I wanted was the plane shift/retributive strike, and I got those. Thanks, guys. :) [/QUOTE]
