Talk:Magic Rods

for some of the spells that are normally immediate actions to cast (e.g. feather fall, etc.), how would you feel about the idea of allowing the rod wielder to spend 2 charges to activate it as an immediate, and maybe make the DC of the UMD check 5 higher than normal (challenging instead of average), assuming they have to make the check in the first place?

I had also thought of adding in a 'spend 2 charges to cast as an immediate' function for the rod of cancellation...

Rod damage

• lvl 0 - starts at order 0, scales to order 1 at 20
• lvl 1 - starts at order 1, scales to order 2 at 15, order 3 at 30
• lvl 2 - starts at order 1, scales to order 2 at 12, order 3 at 24
• lvl 3 - starts at order 1, scales to order 2 at 8, order 3 at 16, order 4 at 24, order 5 at 32
• lvl 4 - starts at order 1, scales to order 2 at 6, order 3 at 12, order 4 at 18, order 5 at 24, order 6 at 30

Price scaling for rods by spell level

• 0th level spell, any CL: use 0.25 in Nudge-Price field.
• 1st level spell, any CL: use 0.375 in Nudge-Price field.
• 2nd level spell, any CL: use 0.6 in Nudge-Price field.
• 3rd level spell, any CL: use 0.75 in Nudge-Price field.
• 4th level spell, any CL: use 0.9 in Nudge-Price field.

To insert the table for rod pricing inside a rod's description field (not the parent description, obviously), use the following template:

{{Rod-Costs
| sp= 
| max= 
| save=
| dam=
}}

Parameters:

• sp = Values: 0 through 4. Sets the spell level of the spell on the rod. This sets the minimum caster level and the price factors. Default is 1.
• max = Values: 5 through 35. Sets the max caster level the rod can be purchased at. Typically where the spell maxes out (e.g. 20 for all cure spells). Default is 35.
• save = Values: N or skip parameter. "N" will hide all save DCs in the table.
• dam = Values: N or skip parameter. "N" will hide all damage info in the table.

Example:

• {{Rod-Costs|sp=2|max=11}}

should rename 'mirror rod' and 'greater mirror rod' to 'improved limner's rod' and 'greater limners rod'
