Hi!
Are these calculations for the price of magical rings correct?
A ring of scintillating scales, continous.
2*3*2000*4= 48000?
Ring of mighty wallop, greater, CL12, continous
3*12*2000*1,5* = 108000?
If a continuous item has an effect based on a spell with a duration measured in rounds, multiply the cost by 4. If the duration of the spell is 1 minute/level, multiply the cost by 2, and if the duration is 10 minutes/level, multiply the cost by 1.5. If the spell has a 24-hour duration or greater, divide the cost in half.
I'm multiplying for a duration of 10m/level. Hour/level doesn't seem to be an option in the SRD, would you have other ideas?
Or, CL12 lasts for 12 hours, so I could use the 2 charges per day option. In this case which formula from the table should I use?
Command word?
3*12*1800*(5/2)= 162000?
Also, as a related question: can you have negative natural armor? If not, and if you have a constitution modifier higher than 5, a ring of scintillating scales would be cheaper than a ring of protection (if my math is correct). Or would it not work because you don't have a natural armor bonus to decrease?
PS: it IS possible to upgrade a magical item by paying the difference in price, right?
