With the new Sulacu approved price, I love it. This is a perfect example of minigun mechanics.

Should be sandboxed since it's SO underpriced.

Exotic

How does this matter that it's Exotic? You don't actually do any attack rolls with it, so the -4 penalty to attack rolls with weapons in which you are not proficient does not actually apply. --Foxwarrior 21:19, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Maybe make it -4 DC? Btw this seems underpriced. The price should be based on "whatever level 10d6 damage is even appropriate". Which somehow doesn't seem like 450g, I could get that at level 2.... -- Eiji Hyrule 01:07, April 12, 2010 (UTC)
It's worth noting that each standard action use costs you 50gp in ammo, and each full-round action use costs you 100gp. So yeah, you could get this at level 2, but not as much of this as it might look like (not that it matters, since you still just sweep an area and take their stuff for more ammo, CR 2 creatures don't generally survive 10d8 save for half). So yeah, it's way way under priced for it's effect. It should probably at least cost the same as a CL 10 direct damage wand (the ammo cost on top is fine since it's a one time weapon investment unlike a wand) and start around 22500. I'd probably go a bit higher than that even. - TarkisFlux 04:52, April 12, 2010 (UTC)
Drawing's Sulacu's attentions again. The WBL between 9 and 10 is 13,000g. Recommend placing the price there, minimum. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 01:26, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

enchantment[edit]

How would enchantments like distance or flaming work? Maybe distance adds a 50% bonus to the area, thus a 180ft line or a 90ft cone. Dr.Drako (talk) 20:55, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
