What the hell is Kaorti Resin? It says hardly anything about it in Fiend Folio.
Everyone's like "Oh yeah, Kaorti Resin? Great stuff. Helps your weapon crits. It's in Fiend Folio."
Only armor and a specific weapon are described. I want Kaorti resin in the game I'm playing but I need to know exactly what it does and what it costs. pls help

Re: What is Kaorti Resin? It says hardly anything about it in Fiend Folio.
Take a look here. The gist is "it's a special material that gives slashing and piercing weapons an x4 crit modifier." The cost is also detailed in the article, and is based on the cost of the base item.
My headache medicine has a little "Ex" inscribed on the pill. It's not a brand name; it's an indicator that it works inside an Anti-Magic Field.

Also note that, at least theoretically, any weapon dipped in Kaorti Resin -- longsword, you name it -- thereby becomes an exotic weapon, which then qualifies for Exotic Weapon Master. Only three levels long, but has some interesting tricks if you're focused on Fighter-ish builds.

Re: What is Kaorti Resin? It says hardly anything about it in Fiend Folio.
Now, just a moment. I don't recall anything about dipping. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the rules explicitly say that if the resin isn't formed into items within a certain time, it dissolves. Kaorti weapons aren't dipped in resin; they're made of it entirely. It's how ribbon daggers, for example, have the flexibility to disarm enemies.

Fair point, the thrust was merely to point out EWM.

If you aren't looking to go EWM, and want to save a feat there is a +1 weapon enchant that grants automatic proficiency with that weapon while wielding it. It also sets your BAB on the medium track if it isn't already better. I think the enchant is called Skilled.

XP costs are equal to 5 gp per XP spent. So if you're making a bastard sword made out of kaorti resin, it costs (335 gp/2 XP * 5 gp/XP) or 840 gp.

Can you just polymorph yourself into one of these and craft the weapon yourself?

Re: What the hell is Kaorti Resin? It says hardly anything about it in Fiend Folio.
Well, you can PAO someone into a kaorti to make it. I reckon that they would be in high demand, because they are pretty good.
Eh... I'm not sure they would put too much effort into it, depending on how good the weapon was. It's too expensive to lose whole kaorti over a single weapon.Avatar of Rudisplork Avatar of PC-dom and Slayer of the Internet. Extended sig

Re: What the hell is Kaorti Resin? It says hardly anything about it in Fiend Folio.
While it takes a moderate amount of effort to make, the Kaorti could make a new one. He probably isn't going to risk dying over the recovery of some lost resources. Especially since XP is an abstraction the character herself doesn't really understand. At most, the Kaorti who made the weapon will stalk you for it. A cabal of Kaorti aren't going to come after you like a pack of Inevitables over a sword.

Yeah, it's the Githyanki who are seriously uptight about the 'non-Githyanki carrying silver swords' thing.

When you live in the astral plane, the ability becomes much more useful. Which they do.

Re: What the hell is Kaorti Resin? It says hardly anything about it in Fiend Folio.
I'd be more concerned that it's manufactured from a material secreted from the palms of Kaorti and then treated "appropriately". It doesn't seem that you can manufacture it without a captive Kaorti. Which might be considered asking for trouble.
Of course, who cares what happens to a bunch of Kaorti? Ghastly people. But they could probably do a lot of damage to the scenery and the furniture trying to get their cystmate back.

...kidnapping all the local NPCs and replacing them with disguised Kaorti...transforming said kidnapped people into more Kaorti...repeating ad nauseum...I think we've all seen this movie and it's up to you whether you want to star in it just to get your hands on a special material.
