09-02-04, 11:16 AM I had an idea for a weapon but can't think of a name.

A Bastardsword that heals 5 hp every round and gets a x4 multiplier on critacals against Constructs.

Help apreciated

09-02-04, 11:27 AM Something that powerfull deserves a good name. Name it after the epic ability, ignore the puny Construct stuff.

Any of these might do:

The Epic Sword of Life.
The Artifact of Victory.
The Blade of Sure Health.

Or just give it a nonsensical inscription and have everyone call it by that:

"Bonnie Lad Quickly"

09-02-04, 11:57 AM Ring of Regeneration does 1 point per level/ hour for 90,000. (And only heals damage taken while the ring was worn).

You want 5 points per 6 seconds.

I would decide that if hourly = 90k, then per minute would be 900k, and per round = 9 million.

You want a set 5 per round instead of 1 per level. That is worth about 1/6, so call it 1,500,000 gp.

That sounds like a good estimate for our purposes, if you can live with the only healing damage taken while the sword is worn/held.

If you want to drop the price more, put in a maximum amount of healing per day. No more than your normal hit point total would drop it to 750,000 in my book.

Aren't constructs immune to criticals?

09-02-04, 05:11 PM You can have it add extra damage against constructs, similar to a flaming or frost weapon. Even though constructs are immune to critical hits, they're not immune to the extra damage dice.

Something life related. Something anti-artifice. Sounds like a green Magic:TG card.

Life Force is a good, simple name. Spirit Edge, etc.

Reminds me of a Warhammer character. This guy had a greatsword. He also had an aura of life around him. Flowers bloomed when he walked, he could lay on hands to cure grevious wounds. He was also a champion of Chaos (the big evil guys).
