Crafting Wands/Scrolls/Potions

[Vogar Eol]

I've been searching the forum and wiki for information on Craft Wand, Brew Potion, and Scribe Scroll. So far, I've been able to locate the cost formulas thanks to a Valefort post. It stated they are as follows:

Wands = (Caster Level) x (Spell Level) x 750 [per Chad]
Potions = (Caster Level) x (Spell Level) x 50 [30% reduction for for Alchemist]
Scrolls = (Caster Level) x (Spell Level) x 25

Do those still hold true? What determines the caster level of the finished item? Will a level 30 Wizard always brew level 30 potions? How about wands and scrolls?

[Vogar Eol]

Will wands always be the level of the caster then?

Wands cl is set by the engine, not the level of the crafter. The calculation is CLxSLx750= cost to create. However, it has 50 charges.

Assuming a max'ed caster, do all the wands cap at the same CL... or does every single spell vary based on hand balancing?

Does every -crafted- wand have 1 charge per use? I know some of the ones in the loot table use 5 or more per use.

wands should have been untouched as far as adjustments go which means whatever is in the 2DA is whats gonna come out

like cats is 15 CL, bears is like 3 CL, IMA is 10 CL, shield is 5 CL

the majority are 15 CL tho but you can look up the list if you search craft wand, it should be pretty accurate still

This is accurate, but for custom wand crafting such as dimension door. There is no documentation I'm aware of for custom wand crafting caster levels.

Thanks guys. I can just pull open the Jegs 2da and look if that's going to be accurate on the custom spells?

Slightly related, are people using teleport-type wands to blink around while staying on the same area map or something? Teleportation spells were pretty new here when last I played heavily.

[chad878262]

Staying in the same map could be class type abilities such as monk worth ki step or could be dimension door

Can someone confirm if Potion Crafting and Elixir crafting (MAlch) actually works in JEGS?

I haven't been able to get any tier 2, 3 or 1 spells in there.

Using a 7W/3MAlch with appropriate feats and skills.

Activated the Master Alch Brewing feat
Tryed casting spells on Magic Potions (10), Magic Potion Bottle, Empty Bottle, Empty Spirit Bottle, and for good measure, Empty Ale Stein.

No it does not work in Jegs.

thanks Valefort.
