Equipment can play a large role in a campaign at times. Certain types of equipment have been put forth but the tools to allow GMs to make/create them can be lacking. Especially when it comes to the Gp cost (which can be used to measure relative power).

For example, the preparation rituals for preconstructioned spellbooks in Ultimate Magic don't explain where the pricing comes from. Considering that PCs can and do create their own spellbooks, this oversight feels a tad disappointing. Personally I combine the guidelines for crafting Wonderous items, Scrolls and dynamic magic items (representing discoveries and theorems of their creators).

On the other hand, I don't have a clue about the dungeon guides from the Dungeoneers Handbook. I just don't understand how they priced those. If anyone knows, please feel free to let me know.

Are there over forms of equipment or services that appear oddly priced in Pathfinder?


There are several monster qualities that aren't listed in the race builder in the ARG and the Srd.

Some of them are appropriate to certain concepts: tremorsense is the one on my mind lately.

Tremorsense (ex) feels like it should be an Advanced or even a Monstrous quality but I don't know how many points it should be worth.

Any advice would be appreciated. Feel free to put any qualities you want evaluated in this thread too.
