[GURPS 4e] Building a Better Enchanter (1 Viewer)
If you've seen me around here, you know I love GURPS 4e. It's my current favorite general purpose system. I got Magic, though, and one section was so horribly bad that it made me want to toss the book across the room. Enchanting. For the life of me, I can't figure out why enchanting should be so costly and time-consuming. My best guess is that they priced things so that your average enchanter couldn't churn out items of unimaginable power, but in the process made it prohibitively expensive to make all but the cheapest, most useless of magic items.
I have one idea of my own. I think giving items an enchantment threshold would help. What I mean by this is that regular mundane items would have a base threshold, and an enchanter could pump as many FP per day as he gets access to into enchanting the item up to its threshold. It would be possible to enchant items further, but going beyond threshold would require slowing down at that point(using the normal rules). Making the item out of pricier materials(precious metals, gemstones, etc.) would increase the threshold. So there would be an in-game reason for more powerful items being prettier. This would of course result in less powerful magic items being easier to come by, while artifacts of unimaginable power would still be extremely rare, requiring huge amounts of time and/or large amounts of extremely valuable materials.
I'm not sure what the base threshold should be, though, or how exactly I'd correlate previous material value to increased threshold. Any ideas? Or any other suggestions to make enchanters more viable as PCs?

Here's the simplest suggestion I can think of, if you assume that the monetary cost of the item to be enchanted is a 'minimum' then you could allow your players to offset the FP cost of enchantment by increasing the cost or rarity of items included in the enchantment. Essentially replacing the sacrifice of time with the sacrifice of money or effort.
Here's a suggestion with absolutely no time spent thinking about balance. Take the base cost of the enchanted item, if no base cost is presented then assume a base cost of 100 $. For every doubling of the cost then the energy point cost of the enchantment is reduced by 10%.
Likewise, if an item of significant rarity (and strong magical association) is built into the item then it reduces the cost by an amount determined by the GM. For creatures a good suggestion is that the cost is reduced by two to five times the creature's point value (depending on it's appropraitness, rarity and magical potency), with a minimum of 25 (after any reductions for increased value).
The final energy point cost must be at least 1% of the original enchantment.
For example, if someone wanted to make a Flaming Weapon (base cost 400$ for the ruby). If someone managed to find a gigantic ruby worth 15,000$ and built it into the device then the cost would be reduced by 50% (making it a 375 ep cost).
Likewise if someone wrapped the hilt in the hide of a young dragon (built on 300 points) it would reduce the cost by 600 ep.
EDIT: Alternatively, change Slow-And-Sure magic to simply a less efficient but long term version of 'quick and dirty'. Instead of each point being a 'mage-day' of work allow the wizards to invest energy points into an item at a ratio of 3 to one. So a wizard who invests 12 energy points a day into his item gets the equivalent of 4 'mage-days' of work. This would also allow bonuses for ceremonial casting. If energy reserve advantages are allowed then this could allow extremely fast enchantment.

Reviews for "Crystal Gourmet Feasts: A Culinary Adventure Towards Unprecedented Magical Potential"
1. Samantha - 2 stars
I was really excited to try the "Enchanting Crystal Gourmet Feast Magical Potential" after hearing all the hype, but I was severely disappointed. Firstly, the claims of unlocking unrivaled power were completely false. I didn't feel any different after consuming it, and it definitely didn't give me any magical abilities. Moreover, the taste was quite peculiar and not in a good way. It had a strange combination of flavors that didn't blend well, leaving an unpleasant aftertaste. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product as it doesn't live up to its promises and the taste is underwhelming.

I must admit, I had high expectations for the "Enchanting Crystal Gourmet Feast Magical Potential" but unfortunately, it fell short. While the presentation was impressive, the actual taste and effect were disappointing. The dish lacked depth and flavor, making it quite mediocre. Additionally, I didn't notice any magical potential or heightened power after consuming it. It was a letdown considering the extravagant claims made by the product. Overall, I wouldn't say it's the worst thing I've ever tried, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype for me.
