Is there a limit on SR? From what i can see the SR 40 mantle fallows the normal progression for SR costs. So would a SR 60 item really only cost 500k (250k and 60k xp to craft)?

First, the pricing for SR is based on (SR-12)*10,000 gp.

Secondly, the xp costs for epic items is Market Price / 100 +10,000 xp.

Thus, a SR 60 item would cost 480,000 gp and would require 14,800 xp to craft.

However, the CL of this item would be 48, meaning that it would require a 48th-level character at the minimum to create.

Edit: Rob caught my error.

The caster level should be a limit as well - you should need a minimum level of SR-12 to make a particular mantle. But yes, it does not suffer from the Epic cost factor of x10, but it does require Epic crafting with caster level above 20th, so starting with SR33 and on up.

However, the CL of this item would be 71, meaning that it would require a 71st-level character at the minimum to create.
I thought it would require caster level of 48...

Why would you think that? The primary spell granting spell resistance grants it at CL + 12.

It's SR - 12 = CL. I fixed my faulty math above.

I really have to stop posting quickly and without double-checking as I have this past week; the result is some fairly silly posts.

48+12 = 60... wasn't that what I replied to, a post about SR60?

So you need a 48th level caster to make an SR 60 item.
