I'm looking to begin using the Spellbook Master software for my Pathfinder wizard. The program works by downloading OGL spell content from WotC in text form. I would like to do the same with the Pathfinder PRD OGL spell content, but can't find it in a compatible form. It would take "years" to enter each spell manually. Does anyone know of way to download PRD OLG spell info in a "batch" format? Thanks.
Yes, but I'm thinking specifically about having multiple casters assist in the creation of an item. The rules under Wand creation say, "the creator must have prepared the spell to be stored (or must know the spell, in the case of a sorcerer or bard) and must provide any focuses the spell requires". However, general item creation description says other spellcasters are allowed. So, if the mage crafting the wand doesn't have the desired spell, can he have another caster cast the spell for wand creation? The wand rules suggest not, but the generic item creation rules suggest so, except in the case of "spelltrigger and spell-completion magic items"... whatever that means. The rod rules are not as explicit as the wand rules and are subject to further interpretation. My specific question is this. Can my mage with the craft rod feat make a metamagic rod of quicken spell even though he doesn't have the quicken spell feat, but has access to an follower that does have the feat (i.e. can the two wizards collaborate on the creation of the item)? Thanks for your input.
I'm a little confused with regards to magic item creation. The general rule on p. 548 it says... "Note that all items have prerequisites in their descriptions. These prerequisites must be met for the item to be created. Most of the time, they take the form of spells that must be known by the item’s creator (although access through another magic item or spellcaster is allowed). The DC to create a magic item increases by +5 for each prerequisite the caster does not meet. The only exception to this is the requisite item creation feat, which is mandatory. In addition, you cannot create spelltrigger and spell-completion magic items without meeting their spell prerequisites." The first part of the passage suggests that access through another magic item or spellcaster is allowed, but the last sentence suggests it isn't for "spelltrigger and spell-completion magic items". Aren't a large proportion of magic items "spelltrigger and spell-completion magic items"? This would most certainly include potions, wands, and scrolls, but what about rods (metamagic) and staves (that cast many spells)? What about rings which duplicate spell effects (e.g. invisibility)? I find this to be very confusing language. Can anyone please clarify for me? Thanks. Keith |
