Does this mean I can create items twice as fast?


Rules Questions


In the crb on page549 the rules say that by increasing the dc by 5 a caster can achieve 1000 gp progress in 4 hours.can I then do this twice per day?


According to Sean K Reynolds in recent posts, yes you should be able to.

Gonna copy-paste in case I screwed up the links:

Just to be sure we're clear: accelerated crafting doesn't let you exceed the "8 hours of work per day" limit. Accelerated crafting lets you work for 4 hours and treat it as 8 hours, and then work for another 4 hours and treat it as 8 hours, for a total of 16-effective-hours (2,000 gp) of work per day.

...

It makes sense that it should be "you can get double the amount of work done, reducing your overall time needed to craft," because the alternate interpretation ("congrats, you have 4 more hours you can spend in town today") is pretty lame and pointless for most campaigns where you're not counting how much you can do in individual hours.


Get a familiar with the [http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/wizard/familiar/familiar-archetypes/valet-familiar-archetype]valet archetype[/url]. It gets Cooperative Crafting feat to help you craft. That and accelerated crafting means you craft items at 1/4 the normal time! For example: +2 magic weapon in 2 days instead of 8!!!

Ok it seems like it should work that way, skr is a good ref, just wsh Mr. Buhlmahn would clarify the wording. I would also be dated if accelerated were handled this way in PFS


Basically I figure if as stringent as organized play is, if it was allowed at those tables, then it is ok.


Well PFS doesn't allow crafting, so not sure what kind of response you'd hope for in that regards.

The Ultimate Campaign book coming out is supposedly gonna have more magic item crafting clarifications. The recent faq's and SKR's posting in that thread were merely just the first taste-testings.


I forgot about the no crafting thing. I suppose I will put it out there for my GM and see what happens, thanks.


Is there any reason one couldn't put in three 4 hour shifts in a given day? Two 8 hour shifts would be pretty unreasonable, but three 4 hour shifts could make perfect sense.


By RAW you cannot exceed the 8 hours of work per day...it's in the quote from skr

Only a maximum of 8 hours per day can be spent crafting a magic item.

The caster can work for up to 8 hours each day. He cannot rush the process by working longer each day, but the days need not be consecutive, and the caster can use the rest of his time as he sees fit.
