Might use it. Atm I'm using increasing the dc by 10 and lab, or 15 with a kit. Batches of 10 per roll. Yours is more elegant I think.</p>I like that one. Might use it.

<p>I ended up allowing a "batch" to be up to twice ranks, needing a "lab" to keep the DC the same, and having one roll affect the entire batch.</p>
<p>(Which is proposal #3)</p>Agreed.

I'd rather just reduce the overall crafting time when crafting multiples of the same item type consecutively.</p>It's overcomplicating things.

<p>When using a Craft skill to make something, you can make two items at once. For every 4 ranks you have in the relevant Craft skill, the number of additional items you can make at once increases by +1. You roll the Craft check for each item separately. For each item beyond the first that you are making, you suffer a -2 penalty to the result of each check. For each different kind of item beyond the first that you are making, you suffer an additional -2 penalty to the result of the check.</p>Not sure how I feel about measuring things in pounds, but I suppose its fine from a simulationist point of view instead of a realist point of view (which is a better view in fantasy RPGs anyway).

<br />
I find myself pleased with the <a href="http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/unchained/skillsAndOptions/craftingAndProfession.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Alternate Craft rules</a> with one exception:</p>
<p>While I feel that making "permanent" items should take a lot of time (and it does under this ruleset), I feel that "consumable" items ought to be able to created faster. I'd therefore like feedback on the following proposed house rule:</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-bigger><b>The "Batch" Rule (proposal #1)</span></b>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>...</p>
<p>Does this sound fair?
<br />
Should I extend a similar courtesy to Potions?
<br />
Cheers.</p>Community,
