(a) There is no depreciation.
(b) Depreciation is an accounting trick, not a way of gaining actual
cash or making anything more affordable.
(c) If there was depreciation, we would remove it, because its purely
admin, not fun or useful.

I've been factoring in the depreciation on magic items owned over a
certain time and wanted to check I had the forumulas right. I've been
factoring in 10% for invested items. 33% for travel based items. 20% on
potions and other edible magic items and 15% on armors and defense
items. This is making my items a whole lot more affordable for the
games. Anyway does anyone have an official list of magic item
depreciation tables?=20

To quibble on (a), the word 'depreciation' (and associated tenses etc) has
multiple meanings (Americans will talk about things being 'fully
depreciated', and they don't mean in the accounting sense). The most
commonly used meaning in NZ is the accounting trick. None of the meanings
has relevance to magical items in DQ.

Following the sudden and unexpected illnesses that is predicted to befall
the current editors of the Seagate Time, two of the previous award winning
editors have generously stepped in and publish issue 54.



Sabastian Silverfoot, proprietor of the 'Silverfoot Gallery', and Ishamael,

Sabastian said the editors were "looking forward to picking up where we left

innuendo and insinuation. Mail them to us or post them on the notice board!"

Ignore these people, they do not appreciate the loss in value that you have suffered.
Your estimates for your losses are a little conservative, the value of your items to you is
probably a lot lower than you think.
As experienced adventurers it is our duty to help young naive members in any way we can, I'm sure
that I can arrange to exchange some cold hard coin for your items at your optimistic estimates of
their values so that you need not suffer further losses.

Hi Dylan,

A good way for you to handle all these tricky numbers is as follows;
1) Take each item/abilitie write-up which has been signed by a GM.
2) Remove (cut off) the right side of the write-up by about 4 cm.
3) Discard the removed part.
4) Return the now smaller item to your normal stack.

Jono

Yeah .. it's called 'having a rest before the nervous breakdown sets 
in'. I hear that Pasifika is good this time of year - although 
Alfheim or the Lunar Empire also has appeal. But we'll try and get 
stuff from the Games sorted out before you go to press.

Thanks Sebastian
