Hi, I'm going to be questing for a few things, and I want to price check them so I can estimate GP amounts.

Flame Spitter -
This appears like a small pistol, but functions more like a magical conduit. The pistol has three pieces of dragon amber with fire affinity embedded within. Each piece of amber allows the Flame Spitter to fire a blast of fire able to burn through flesh and low-tier wood (totalling three blasts). The range is limited to twenty feet after which the flames die down significantly. The stones require an hour to recharge.

Shocking Dragonlance -
A lance with a piece of dragon amber lodged at the tip. The spear is the strength of delyn, and when it strikes someone it releases a blast of electrically able to sizzle flesh, and heat metal to the point it'd burn those wearing it. The lance can release four shocks an hour.


White Dragon Tooth -
A small piece of dragon amber with a wind affinity has been mounted into a pendant. The pendent is able to conjure a swirling mass of air in front of the wearer twice a day (roughly the size and width of the caster). The air currents are strong enough to deflect arrows and similar light weight ranged attacks. Melee attacks are also often disrupted. The shield lasts for two posts and can be used twice an hour.

Wing of the Dragon -
This delyn short sword has has a long strip of white dragon amber with an air affinity embedded along the middle of the blade. The sword can become encased in a vortex of swirling, drill-like air. The vortex is strong enough to knock aside weak attacks and pushing back anything it touches as if it was struck with 5x strength. The tip of the drill-like vortex can pierce targets it is thrust towards. This effect lasts for three posts, then must be left to recharge over an hour. The sword is very difficult to wield while the magic is in effect. The user must have at least 5x strength or the sword will be impossible to control.

Death Spitter -
This is a wrist mounted device shaped like a roaring dragon mouth. Inside a four pieces of dark green, death affinity, dragon amber. The Spitter can send out a blast of a dozen needles in a cone-shaped spread. The needles may appear like poison, but they actually use death magic to drain the life from the target. A centimetre around any needle that hits flesh rots away and leaves a painful hole. The Spitter can fire four blasts of needles each hour. While the needles can pierce fabric, they can’t peirce any metal.

Hey I'll be helping you out today.

Give me a few hours to make some calculations and I'll get back to you.

Hello!

Here are a list of costs for all of these along with some questions:

Flame Spitter -
Based on a steel pistol required for this, you would be looking at a starting price of - 450 GP, but that is without any magical fire-spitting. Are you wanting to look up the costs of the amber pieces, or do you already own some?


Shocking Dragonlance -
Is the lance made of metal or wood? Traditional lances are made of wood, however you quoted delyn.
For the lowest teir possible of wood for your piece - 900 GP
Teir of wood same as delyn - 2250 GP
If made from Delyn metal - 1800 GP

White Dragon Tooth
In the lowest teir of material possible for enchantment (steel) - 200 GP

Wing of the Dragon -
Using Delyn metal for a short sword - 1500 GP

Death Spitter -
Using lowest possible metal teir for enchantment (steel) - 200 GP

If you want upgrades on any materials, let me know.

Thanks Phi, would you mind doing these too? I'm going to quest for a large amount of Dragon Amber and these will be the items I want to end up with for the peeps in the thread.

Flame Spitter -
This is a wrist mounted device shaped like a roaring dragon mouth. Inside are four pieces of red, fire affinity, dragon amber. Each piece of amber allows the Flame Spitter to fire a blast of fire able to burn through flesh and low-tier wood (totalling four blasts). The range is limited to twenty feet after which the flames die down significantly. The stones require an hour to recharge.

Lance of Sihai -
This is a wrist mounted device shaped like a roaring dragon mouth. Inside is a large chunk of yellow, lighting affinity, Dragon Amber. When activated a blade of lighting appears from the end of the weapon for two posts. The lighting magic is able to slice through low tiered wood and leathers, and easily through flesh as it sears through them with intense heat. Metal is too durable for the blade to have a long lasting effect on, but it will heat it up significantly and can make armour burn the wearer. The stone requires an hour to recharge.

Astrape’s Finger -
This is a small piece of dragon amber from the lightning dragon Astrape that has been fashioned into a pendant. When the wearer calls the dragon’s name the pendent wraps the wearing in electricity. The next three melee attacks will release a blast of electricity able to sizzle flesh, and heat metal to the point it'd burn those wearing it. The pendent must recharge for an hour before it can be used again.

Bronte’s Tooth -
This is a small piece of dragon amber from the thunder dragon Bronte that has been fashioned into a pendant. When the wearer calls the dragon’s name the pendent wraps the wearer’s arms, and any held weapons, in a vortex of swirling wind. The vortex is strong enough to knock aside weak attacks and pushing back anything it touches as if it was struck with 5x strength. The tip of the drill-like vortex can pierce targets it is thrust towards. This effect lasts for three posts, then must be left to recharge over an hour. The user must have at least 5x strength or the vortex becomes impossible to control and throws the wearer around. The pendent must recharge for an hour before it can be used again.

Many apologies for this, but due to a small misreading error I miscalculated a couple of items on your previous list.

Re-costing as wrong base price for some materials were used:

White Dragon Tooth:
Using Damascus (as lowest teir metal possible) we can cost this at:
375 GP

Death Spitter:
Using Damascus (as lowest teir metal possible) we can cost this at:
300 GP

New estimates:
Assuming damascus base material for all (lowest possible that can be enchanted. All sold without amber, but with enchantments enough to bear the level of magic involved.

Flame Spitter:
Assuming damascus:
300 GP

Lance of Sihai:
375 GP

Astrape's Finger:
300 GP

Bronte's Tooth:
375 GP
