[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 5186109, member: 2011"] Fair enough. 4 foes on the WH side, 2 foes on the SB side. Assuming more than 4 foes as an average is not very reasonable. 8 vs 16 +1 implement 12 vs 18 +2 implement 12 vs 20 level 8 ability score 16 vs 22 +3 implement 16 vs 24 level 14 ability score 20 vs 26 +4 implement 28 vs 38 level 21 ability score plus Epic class bonus plus second d6 32 vs 40 +5 implement 32 vs 42 level 27 ability score 35 vs 44 +6 implement Assuming a DM allows that item in the game, it will still be a very expensive item. He gives up 5 same level items just to craft the staff. And half or more of his levels, he will have a -1 to hit and damage with it cause the magic staff the DM handed out is better. This concept of "every PC gets whatever item they want to optimize their build" doesn't quite work out in practice in many campaigns. Many DMs are not that gullible. [/QUOTE]
