Wacky Wands

Prices seem to be a bit exorbitant for wands. Two that caught my eye today were 2nd circle clerical spells:

3600 for Darkness 3600 for Holding

when compared to less than 1/3 of the price for a Wand of Invisibility. I know it might not be as important as some other bug fixes, but I figured I'd bring this up and put it in the foreground regardless for consideration.

yeah, more wands for the people!

This is an issue for any spell which can't be made into a potion.

I agree, it should be fixed -- though to be fair, some of those wands are pretty darn useful and should remain expensive.

I thought they where deliberatly expensive, beacuse they are so good?

Despite it being a bug that is affecting thir pricing, I think the prices themselves are quite alright. 3500 gold for 25 charges or Hold of Blindness/Deafness is pretty good!

Eh, no. No, it isn't.

You can scribe 25 scrolls of Hold Person or Blindness/Deafness for about the same price (I think), which is silly. The only difference is that they're separate items and the UMD DC is higher.

I would definitely like to make some major adjustments to wand prices.

Howland and the other balance-conscious DMs are hard at work making a long list of wand and potion prices for me, I think. Once I get that, I can begin fixing this up.

This was fixed a few days ago.
