Cost Multipliers for Items: When an item has a cost multiplier, for instance for its size, unusual shape, or composition, does that apply before or after additional costs such as for making the item masterwork or using a special material?
All cost multipliers apply after you add up the total cost of the item before the multiplier. For example, a chain shirt costs 100 gp and a mithral chain shirt costs 1,100 gp after the +1,000 gp cost for mithral. If you were applying the 1/3 cost multiplier for crafting the item using the Craft skill, the cost multiplier from Table 6-8 based on size and body type, or both, you would apply those multipliers to the full 1,100 gp cost for the mithral chain shirt. This means a mithral chain shirt built for a rune giant costs 8,800 gp and a mithral chain shirt built for the tarrasque costs 35,200 gp.
It's going to be harder to convince pathfinders to make that initial investment in some good armor for their non humanoid pathfinders
*tap tap taps pointy stick*
We'll just have to be more convincing.
Guess that just makes me more likely to invest in mage armor and use share spell (shield) to keep Terry the Pteranodon safer.
