So this is just a test format but give feedback n such.
This formula is based off of my experience of weapon sales and the average prices I see, it also only applies to weapons with full durability.
So ((AxB) +C)x D and if applicable +E
I.E ((3500x25)+1000) x 1 = 88,500 (vanq supreme indestructable hally)
A = Damage prop
B = tactics modifier
C = Durability Bonus
D = weapon type
E = special bonus
So first start with each damage prop (vanq, power etc) and make that a base for the formula
Ruin 100gp
Might 250gp
Force 500gp
Power 1000gp
Vanq 3500gp
Then do a tactics bonus (multilply by rank)
Accurate (x5)
surpassingly accurate (x10)
Eminently accurate (x15)
Exceedingly accurate (x20)
Supremely accurate (x25)
Now durability Bonus
durable (+100gp)
substantial (+200gp)
massive (+500gp)
fortified (+750gp)
invulnerability (+1000gp)
Now sort by weapon type by multiplying out
Halberd (x1)
Kryss (x.07)
Katana (x.07)
Warfork (X.06)
etc etc
and finally special bonuses
Silver (x1.5)
Lightning (500 per charge)
Fireball (350 per charge)
Magic arrow (150 per charge)
Harm (100 per charge)
all debuffs can be valued at what you like.

Re: Pricing formula for magic weapons (give feedback)
This is an interesting idea, but weapons should always be tending towards cheaper and cheaper prices as far more come into existence than go out (at least with good weapons). Supply and demand!

Truth but this thread can always be editted

Re: Pricing formula for magic weapons (give feedback)
Prices are like if magic weapons loot table was rare, but its not that rare here, so I doubt they can be that expensive. Nice idea btw, maybe we can get a calculator for this later lol
Re: Pricing formula for magic weapons (give feedback)
I'd value lightning and maybe gouhls touch charge above silver. You can 2 shot someone with an e bolt and a good hally of lightning easy, and gouhls touch weps are awesome no matter what kind of weapon it is(well maybe the faster the better) just for the ability to throw in a random paralyze from time to time, who farms liches with a silver, fortified, exceedingly accurate halberd of vanquishing anyways?
