05-26-06, 04:06 PM I have a question about the crafting classes (arteficer, grafters and some other common classes[wizard] with the right feats). The question being does the stuff they make count toward their total wealth? It would make sence eather way, either it is a game mechanic that balences them out with others because they make things or it is part of their wealth meaning that they should be fine with it even if they don't get that much other stuff.

thanks for any help, I want to play a grafter.

If i made a fighter who used Craft(weaponsmithing) to make a katana, and it only costs him 200gp to make, would that be 200gp or 400gp towards his wealth?

05-26-06, 09:19 PM When creating a character, you would count how much the character would have actually spent to have/make items. All items in a character's possession would be counted, unless specifically stated otherwise by the DM (family heirloom, gift, etc.)

If market price was only used, why bother making anything, it saves you nothing.
