Here are a few please add if I missed any- I left deflection off the list because I was looking for bonus's that could apply to anything. Natural Enhancement Insight Moral Sacred Profane Luck The other question I had is if I wanted to add bonus's of multiple types for the same effect to a single item, would it be best to just add the 1.5x cost multiplies to every type beyond the first? ( EI +4 breastplate with 4 natural AC, 4 deflection, 4 insight, 4 luck, 4 sacred- you get the idea)

A +1 breastplate with 1 natural AC, +1 deflection, +1 insight, +1 luck is basically as defensively powerful as a +5 breastplate. Yet, if adding the different bonuses, it would cost only 7,000gp instead of 25,000gp. In my opinion, it should cost 25,000gp.
mystraca 04-24-05, 05:49 PM	I think your right but you prolly need to go further calculate to add in the left over for each. (6 squared * 1000) + 4000 for the 2 natural + 8000 for the 2 insight. total of 48000

Why hasn't my DM killed me with a spike? I am the DM. on a totally unrelated note, I'm looking for some new PCs.... Edit: Mine wouldn't actually be a full plate suit, It would be a ring. No armour check penalty, max speed, arcane spell failure or getting rended.
