Small Attention Span |
I've been reading through some modules lately and I've been seeing that NPCs have wands with less than 50 charges on them, and I wondered, "How much do those cost?" I've been stating up NPC's for a short adventure I'm writing, and I need to fit wands into the stats, but with the gold limit, I can't get the full 50 without going over.
So my question is this: how do you calculate the cost of a wand with less than 50 charges?

Exactly. Those aren't so much "non 50-charge wands" as they are wands (which started with the standard 50 charges) that have been used and depleted. ArchLich is totally right; just divide the cost of the fully charged wand by 50 and then multiply by the number of charges the wand actually has. One way to think of it is that a wand actually has a cost per charge, but all newly created wands always have 50 charges and thus you have the price in the DMG.
