Looking at equipment for a TWF-based build, I got interested in the pricing of the Tooth of Leraje (Tome of Magic), and ways around its restriction to one single weapon.
I calculated the price of a "ring of greater magic weapon (CL 20) 1/day", which seems to be exactly the same as the tooth itself: 21600 gp. Now, I could just double the number of charges on the ring, but didn't they add some metamagic feat that increases the number of affected targets? Maybe that one increases the price by less than 100%!
The spell:
Greater magic weapon, chained
Spell level: Sor/Wiz 3+3
Caster level: 20
Targets: One manufactured weapon or unarmed strike, and 20 more, none of which may be further away from the initial weapon than 30 feet
Duration: 20 hours
Effect: The affected weapons' enhancement bonus is increased to +5.
The item:
Ring of chained Greater magic weapon
Activation: 1 standard action
Effect: Once per day, casts Greater magic weapon (chained) on a touched weapon.
Spell level * Caster level * 1800 * charges per day/5 =
3+3 * 20 *1800 * 1/5 =
6 * 20 * 1800 * 1/5 =
43200 gp
Hum. If I didn't break something on the way, you could buff up 21 weapons for the price of two Teeth and the time it takes to put that ring on and switch it out for your main ring again every morning. But I possibly did break everything, as this seems just too good to be true...
