3.5e How do magic weapons work

[evnaz]

If I wanted to make a +5 Defending Parrying Shortsword of Warning how much would it cost
would it be
Defending +1 +2,000 gp
Parrying: +8,000 gp
Warning +1 +2,000 gp
+5 +50,000 gp

For the +x's, you add all the x's together and then look that up for the price. So you don't take the +5 and two +1's separately, but instead get a +7, for 98,000 GP. Parrying is just a standalone bonus, and doesn't interact with the +'s, so the total is 106,000 GP.

And don't forget the cost of a masterwork shortsword, which is an extra +310.

Total cost is 106,310 gp.

Sorry no:

Shortsword: 10
Masterwork: 300
Plus Equivalent: {
Defending: +1
Warning: +1
Enhancement: +5
Plus Total: +7}: 98000
Fixed prices additions: {
Parrying: 8,000
Fixed Total: 8000}: 8000
Total: 106310 gp

Enchantments with a cost listed as a "plus" value are added together to get the total "plus" cost.

Edit: swordsaged - I thought I would be

I think a wizard did it. That's how they work.

Khedrac got the complete answer for pricing.
