What happens if Black Blade is lost?


Rules Questions


Hi there, I'm going to build a Magus and while I really like the Bladebound archetype I'm afraid about losing the weapon (which would make that archetype a huge wastes). Is there any way to recover it?

Under Unbreakable rule it says:
If destroyed, the black blade can be reforged 1 week later through a special ritual that costs 200 gp per magus level. The ritual takes 24 hours to complete.
If the weapon is lost it's not destroyed but if you can always reforge it after being destroyed (which I guess it includes being destroyed to dust) maybe it could assume a reforge could be done even with the innert weapon lost somewhere?


bump :/


Once you're level 9, you can teleport it to your hand if you're within a mile. The other answer would be "don't let it get taken from you."


answer to the title( What happens if Black Blade is lost?): a quest starts?
Who do you play with? Do you really suspect that your GM will try to steal your class abilities just to mess you?
yes you've put some of your power in an item, yes it can potentially be used against you, this is not always a bad thing.

I mean, do you really want to play a awesome mcdudson superman-like character, who never fails, fumbles, have setbacks, have to make decisions, gets tired, cares about things, or people, that can be unbalanced, or afraid? are you sure Pathfinder is the best game for that?

IF your black blade ever gets stolen or disarmed or wahtever, then trust your table and yourself to make it a memorable story and an interesting challenge. And I'm saying 'IF' here, because your GM is probably not a dick - if he is, why play with him? so I am making an assumption that he won't do something like that just to mess with you and make your game un-fun.

but yeah, after 9th lvl it can teleport to you as well, so there's that ...
