Increasing Save DC for new magic items @ErikBurigo: Thanks, that's a lot of why correct pricing is important to me. I don't quite see it as an intrigue-buster, though - most parties would have the suggestion spell themselves by this point, and would be able to cast it with a higher DC (using wisdom bonuses, and applying buffs and debuffs). I guess as others have said, the object is to keep magic items strictly weaker than what a similar-level spellcaster can achieve on his own. |

Increasing Save DC for new magic items @okeefe: See my edit, also my comment to mxyzplk. Suffice to say, this has been a recurring problem for me of sufficient magnitude that I could really use a good general solution. |

Increasing Save DC for new magic items For my home game, I'd definitely fudge it :) This isn't exactly "to be published," but it's for a public venue where at least some people really care about the pricing being at least in the right ballpark. And the big thing is, it's not just a single item or example - this is a problem I'm running into with a lot of my items. It's turned out to be pretty fundamental - I like trying to do cool stuff with low level spells, but I want them to be interesting for mid-level characters too. And if doing that makes the item go way beyond low-level, I've just kinda shot myself in the foot. |

Increasing Save DC for new magic items The vizier is an example; I know there are ways to make a DC 14 item sufficient for plot purposes, but I'm interested specifically in making a DC 17 item. So you're saying Heighten Spell is the only route to go here? Suggestion with DC 14 is a level 3 spell, DC 16 is a level 4 spell, and DC 17 is a level 5 spell? No middle ground? |
