Are there still crafting difficulty checks?


Rules Questions


I feel like this is a question everyone knows the answer to already, except for me. Are there still difficulty checks for crafting items? I can't find anything about this. Where am I going wrong?


Sp based on what I get from this, there is no difficulty check. Basically you have to have the required amount of UPE's and skill ranks in the correct skill. If you are trying to craft a 1st level item and you are 7th level you can cut the time to craft in 2 hours instead of 4.

The whole concept of crafting items isn't supposed to make things cheaper, but allows the PC to have access to what ever they want. So if you can't find an item somewhere in 4 hours you can create it yourself meeting all prerequisites. I think they wanted to make crafting simple and easy and having the necessary skill shows you know how to craft that item.

Thank for your answer. It put my mind to rest the subject.
