If the thing in question specifies a limit to how it's treated as another thing ("is treated as an X for the purposes of Y"), then it's treated as that other thing only for the listed purposes. Is the "of venom" portion priced as a +1 bonus, or is it a flat +6k? Did the designer make it a bit cheaper because it's only a dagger? You just can't know for certain, so a blanket ban is a lot easier for Paizo to deal with than trying to reverse-engineer everything. Short answer: because you can't always tell for sure how something's price was determined.įolding plate seems pretty straightforward (10k for the ability, plus the cost of the armor), but not everything is. (and hell, maybe there is something that I don't know about that can break balance). Again pardon if I annoy with this question. But I wonder just what we gain from this restriction. I mean I understand the general answer of 'this is not part of the rules and as such it cannot be done'. I ADORE the concept of folding plate, but wonder why one cannot enhance it. I mean I get that this might just be a rules thing, but there are so many interesting unique items that just become completely useless by the lack of scaling.įor my specific example of this, Folding Plate. DEVIL DAGGERS UPGRADES UPGRADEWondrous items whose names include a +X value (such as bracers of armor, headband of vast intelligence, amulet of might fists, etc.) may also be upgraded following the rules for upgrading magical items on page 19 of the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play.Īdmittedly I might be a bit annoying about this one, but I do want to ask exactly WHY you cannot upgrade named items. Magic armor and weapons may be upgraded to named versions if they are the same basic material and shape as, and meet but do not exceed the enhancement bonuses of the named versions. Non-magic specific armor and specific weapons may be upgraded normally. Named magic items-including specific armor and specific weapons-are not upgradeable.
