Hi all
So, building some basic "templates" for NPCs in my standard world, so when a party walks into any town/village, and asks if they can get something made, I can not only say yes, but make the rolls there and then and tell them exactly how much it will cost and how long it will take. Id prefer to use NPC classes for this (player classes for NPCs do happen in my world, but generally for more important figures).
My issue is, I cant find an NPC arcane class that is actually good for crafting "low level" magic items. In fact, the only Arcane NPC caster I can find is the Magewrite which isnt actually capable of doing what it says it does (blacksmith that uses spells to enhance his forge, except pretty much only Mending is useful, and he doesnt seem to get anything related to crafting actual magic items at all!). The Adept doesnt get much more, but at least gets Bull Strength, Cats Grace and Bears Endurance. (Honestly, I'm considering just making all magic item crafter low level wizards and clerics at this point, which was something I was hoping to reserve for higher level gear only).
I also cant find a rule on what spells are needed for +X armor/weapon enchantment. I would assume magic weapon would be the spell for weapons, and mage armor for armor enhancement? But I cant find the reference. Anyone know where it is?
