> Reporter: Martijn Verburg

> I think this is a data issue, but it may be code. I'm starting here.
> I can create a +5 suit of armor (type doesn't matter). If I want to add a +5 natural armor bonus to the armor, it says the incremental cost is 50k.
> Per MagicItemsI.rtf, 'Adding New Abilities', this is wrong.
> "A creator can add new magical abilities to a magic item with no restrictions. The cost to do this is the same as if the item was not magical. Thus, a +1 longsword can be made into a +2 vorpal longsword, with the cost to create it being equal to that of a +2 vorpal sword minus the cost of a +1 sword. If the item is one that occupies a specific place on a character's body the cost of adding any additional ability to that item increases by 50%. For example, if a character adds the power to confer invisibility to her ring of protection +2, the cost of adding this ability is the same as for creating a ring of invisibility multiplied by 1.5."
> So, adding the +5 natural armor bonus to the suit of armor should cost 1.5x the cost of an amulet of natural armor +5, or 75k.
