I cannot find guidelines for the cost of crafting a blade guardian (complete warrior) beyond 8 HD. All it gives me is the market price modifier, not the crafting cost change. it does not appear to follow the standard 1/3 cost for most items. Please give me a her HD and increase to large craft cost!!!!!! :confused: :confused: :confused:

The base model has a market price of 30,000 gp and a creation cost of 18,000 gp + 1200 xp. For each HD above 8 you increase the market price by 3,000 gp, so you increase the creation cost by 1,000 gp and 120 xp. At 14 HD the creature is large size which adds 15,000 gp to the market price, which would add 5,000 gp and 600 xp to creation costs only once, from 13 to 14 HD since is the only time size increases. So:

HD / Market / Creation
8 /30,000gp/ 18,000gp + 1200 xp
9 /33,000gp/ 19,000gp + 1320 xp
10 /36,000gp/ 20,000gp + 1440 xp
11 /39,000gp/ 21,000gp + 1560 xp
12 /42,000gp/ 22,000gp + 1680 xp
13 /45,000gp/ 23,000gp + 1800 xp
14 /63,000gp/ 29,000gp + 2520 xp (3,000 for HD and 15,000 for size to Market, total 18,000)
(1,000/120xp for HD and 5,000/600xp for size to Creation)

15 /66,000gp/ 30,000gp + 2640 xp (HD adjustment only from here on)
16+ add 3,000 gp to market and 1000 gp + 120 xp per HD

This help?

I think so seeing your post reminded me that part if the initial cost is the spells put into it's creation. thanks.
