My apologies, though I'm not sure why that would be a pet peeve. Oh well, update.
Re: New Magical Materials
Elemental stone prices seem overly high, 20k for a 1 shot maximize for your fireball or a +1 weapon mod seems high.
Can it be used on an enchanted weapon? Can you use more than 1 on a weapon? Does it count as an enhancement crystal? Can they be unmerged?
If all those questions are yes (other than the cystal one), 20k seems real reasonable, maybe even low. If most of them are no, then it seems very high.
Either way, its 1 use effect should at least be a maximized [element] ball without need to be able to cast it yourself, like a necklace of missiles. I mean you are throwing a lot of gold away that way.
Hard to judge the moderate and greater stone prices for the same reasons.
ion stone duplicates and improves on ring of telekinesis and is slotless, for 11k less.
Re: New Magical Materials
Right, the elemental stones are meant for use in crafting, it just gives an alternate use for people who own one but whose WBL is already too high for it to be useful. The big jump in price is their elemental resistance property, which is extremely expensive. So much so that I am in fact undervaluing them a little as is. They count as a +1 enhancement bonus.
The Ioun Stone I agree, but I'm not sure how to price it. Alternatively it could grant at will Mage Hand + Telekinesis 1/day for a much lower price.
Re: New Magical Materials
Hmm, ok, didnt realize how rough those elemental resistance prices are, honestly they seem too high, but I'm not here to argue the SRD :)
You could make two versions of the ion stone, one thats a mage hand version with 1/day TK for 2-5k range, the other as described as a 'greater' version for something like 85-90k.
I still stick with the 'built in spell' on the stones. If you are going to sac a thing with that much value, you should at least have a big bang :)
