Scottbert 12-07-07, 02:10 PM	As I understand it, the formula for dorjes is 750 x manifester level x effective power level ((total PP to manifest +1)/2, round up). I tried this on the psicrown of Astral Legion and it costs exactly half of what you'd expect it to. I can't even begin to get the others to fit close to the staff/wand formula. Is the formula for creating custom psicrowns known and if so, what is it? Thanks!

It's a very complicated formula. Apparently there was some debate as to whether or not this formula fits the sample psicrowns in the XPH.
