    Default Permanency Scroll Cost

    Does anyone know how to determine Permanency scroll costs for scrolls able to apply spells of different xp levels?

    If so can anyone tell me the costs for 500xp and 1500xp scrolls? Thanks.

    Do a standard scroll cost, then add 5gp per xp.

    EDIT: Seems to be wrong, check http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20041214a

    EDIT2: I am right

    And I believe it has a typo. CL of 10, rather than the 9 mentioned.

    SL*CL*25 +XP*1000

    If I remmember correctly, each point of XP spent adds 1 gold coin to the price.

    Yeah I saw that link. It confused me a lot. :P I don't know where they get those numbers from.

    I got an edit in.

    Scroll costs 25*CL*SL I believe.
    XP costs 5g each.

    They wrote a mistake in, that it was CL 9, rather than 10. Else, it's right.

    EDIT:

    A scroll of permanency with a caster level of 910th that is suitable for making a spell with extra XP cost of up to 1,000 XP permanent has a base price of 1,250 gp (5Spell level x 10Caster level x 25). The gp cost to create the scroll is 625 (1/2 the base price of 1,250 gp). The XP cost to create the scroll is 1,050 XP (1/25 the base price of 1,250 gp plus the extra 1,000 XP for the spell). The market price is 6,250 gp (the base price of 1,250 gp plus 5,000 gp for the extra XP cost).

    So if the Market Price is how much you need to buy it for, what's the base price used for?

    So by that formula a scroll for Detect Magic would cost 5*9*25 + (5*500)

    = 1125 + 2500

    = 3625?

    And Tongues would be 5*11*25 + (5*1500)

    = 1375 + 7500

    = 8875?

    Base price is the price without XP stored in it. (Perhaps if you pay the XP cost yourself)

    The calcs looks right to me.

    Gotta admit, I like the sound of 1gp/xp better, but thanks for the help. :P
