Hmm… this also means that if players try to create magic items and fail, they may have just created a cursed item for themselves!Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988517412357391012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290828421410624791.post-13606643306052738522011-05-03T06:34:15.124-05:002011-05-03T06:34:15.124-05:00@Staples

Why waste all that time to create cursed armor -1 when you could be creating a trap to kill/capture all those would-be thieves? Why would any one <i>want</i> to do that? On the other hand, I can see a lot of people really wanting to make armor +1. +2. etc. As with all creative endeavors, this is not always going to work. What happens to those failures? Now I have an answer...FrDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459281821319914530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290828421410624791.post-56956633594862569432011-05-03T00:01:57.639-05:002011-05-03T00:01:57.639-05:00Interesting.
