Craft item feats

[Twisted shroud]

Do any of you take any feats like scribe scroll or craft wonderous item? I just think they seem to be a waste of a feat and xp. However I want to see if there are any other opinions on these feats. Please post your thoughts.

Yes. Scribe Scroll and Craft Wondrous in particular are well worth it. Take a look through the magic item lists sometime- the majority of items in the game, and most of the most useful ones (Bags of Holding, stat boosters, Amulets of Armor..) are Wondrous Items. Making them yourself for half price is an excellent deal in any game where the DM's pacing allows enough downtime to do so.

My high level NPC casters usually take Craft Rod, all my casters do. Metarods are just too good not to and I always use the houserule that if you made it or someone in the group made it then only its cost to craft counts against WBL, that alone makes crafting a viable build choice.
