Can someone with the healing domain make empowered magic items?


Rules Questions


Healer's Blessing says "all cure spells are treated as if they were empowered." Does this apply to scrolls and potions made by the healer?

Thanks

No. It only applies to spells that are cast right then.

Empowered scrolls would still cost more assuming you can empower a spell anyway, and still would require the feat most likely. If you could do it for free it would be a good way to make easy money by selling them.


Can you point me to a rule to this effect?

There are two answers:

  • Are Caster Level 1 Cure Lights Empowered? No
  • Can you make CL 5, 3rd level spell, Empowered Cure Light potions/scrolls? Yes

The greater circlet of blasting is essentially a maximized searing light spell in a bottle, so I don't see why you couldn't put metamagic into items. Yo would still have to follow all the basic item creation rules though (such as pay the cost for the total modified spell level).


So both potions and scrolls are powerful with Healer's blessing,even though they don't have the feat.

So are you saying that they have to make potion with the appropriate CL to reflect its being empowered?

Seems like the minimum CL would need to be CL 6 since that's the level at which they get healer's blessing.

If you want to make the item with the blessing, you need to pay the cost for the item as if someone else was making the item using the feat (so yeas "reflect its being empowered")

Since you only pay for the spell effect and you can lower CL to the lowest needed to cast the spell, you shouldn't need to be limited to CL 6 as the lowest (you could go with generic empower which would be CL 5)


That makes sense from an item economy standpoint. Thanks!
