Greetings,
I'm designing a custom magic weapon for my home brew game with some special qualities. It's a basic +1 rapier weapon but I would like for it to also mimic the ability granted by the Anatomist Trait. i.e. +1 trait bonus to confirm critical hits, but not stack if the wielder already has this trait. Pricing out the +1 rapier is straightforward, but how much would the +1 crit confirmation cost? 5k, more, less?
There was some discussion in another thread about the price of magic items that grant feats, such as the Scarlet and Green Cabochon Ioun Stone. If traits are considered 1/2 a feat then 4k might be a reasonable price. But considering the utility of a low crit range weapon with this feature I'm thinking 5k would be a better price point to add Anatomist as a weapon quality.
Thoughts?
