Kyuketsukiouji 04-02-04, 08:30 PM	Ok, this one has me stumped. I'm trying to make a Crystal of Healing. Command word-activated Wondrous item that casts lvl 12 heal on the holder, with 5 charges. I have no idea how to price it, though. Do I make it Use activated 1 use and multiply by 5, command word and divide it by something, or what? Gurus out there with suggestions?
