Determine cost of enchantments

[Shinoskay]

I didnt actually google this one yet, sorry...

So a thought occured to me. If I want to purchase +1 to enchant armor and then want to add clangorous and burdenless.

would I have to pay for +3 enchantments? or would it be +2 + cost of burdenless?
the idea is +1 is pretty cut and dry. it has to happen first.

then do I get to determine which special goes first? does it matter?
if I pay for burdenless and then clangorous, would clang cost as if it was the third level of enchantment bonus?

or, does it not matter and the cost of burdenless is outside the enchantment costs? that is to say, would any order always be +2 and then +burdenless regardless of order of adding?

Burdenless is a flat +4 000 gp. It doesn't affect and isn't affected by anything else on the armor, though it does require that initial +1 enchantment. If you have craft magic arms and armor you could add it for half cost, 2 000 gp.

Clangorous is a +1 equivalent ability. It's a shield ability not armor; burdenless is an armor quality not shield. You can't get both on the same item. Applied to a +1 shield it makes it +2-equivalent for cost; the difference is 4 000 - 1 000 = 3 000 gp which is the price you'd pay to get it added. If you did the job yourself it would cost 1 500 gp.

Edit: if you somehow could apply both to a suit of +1 armor then the cost to do so would be 4 000 + 3 000 = 7 000 gp, or 3 500 gp if you had the feat and did it yourself.
