Oh, I know he's been known to make quite a number of embarassing mixups, but what he writes for WotC does have the backing of at least quasi-officialdom.

Regardless, I don't see any possible interpretation of the rules in the SRD that would make having a market value over 200k trigger the *10 multiplier. The epic *10 is specifically keyed to bonuses that non-epic items can't give, and it's trivially easy to stack up legal non-epic bonuses on a single item to the point where its total cost exceeds 200k. +6 to all ability scores would do it just fine (Note: Do not ever allow material from the Miniatures Handbook into a normal campaign without carefully looking it over first. The Miniatures Handbook is home to such brokenness as the Belt of Magnificence +6, +6 to all ability scores on one item, for a mere 200k, among many many other things). Now, I wouldn't argue against a house rule that a +20 permanent insight bonus is beyond non-epic limits, but insight bonuses aren't even mentioned anywhere in the RAW as having a cap, non-epic or otherwise.

You know, seeing as how everyone else is getting custom items, maybe I should join in. Hmmm.

Yes, Eldon picked up the goggle upgrade.

Where's the logs, so I can go count his XP?

You know, you could just get a hand of glory, for 8,000 GP. Extra ring slot, and can use daylight and see invisibility once a day.

Logs don't hold the xp counts; this thread does. Hard drive crashed are tough; let's see....

Eldon:
Last session; +5,000
2/11: +1,333
1/28: +3,700
1/21: +1,325
1/14: +3,320
1/07: +1,125+1,686
12/17:1750
12/03: 117326

131,565

Unless I missed something, of course.
