Enchanted Items Patch - Important, holy crap!
SaintAndSinner:
I like both of them but I'd probably personally use the second one unless I wanted a more pulpy action.

Adding this to YS280:
"Regardless, an item’s casting strength after all bonuses are totaled may never exceed two times the crafter’s Lore rating. It’s a hard cap."
I'll also point out that, even without this edit, our theoretical 28-slot enchantment guy is off the chart on YS281 when it comes to the size of the enchanted item in question. A refresher:
Up to 4 enchantment slots: no smaller than a ring
Up to 8: no smaller than a fist or rod
Up to 12: no smaller than a basketball or staff
Going by 4's, 28 slots is 5 rungs above where that chart goes:
Up to 16: ?
Up to 20: ?
Up to 24: ?
Up to 28: ?
I'm thinking that since the progression (spherically) is ring to fist to basketball over three rungs, that by the time you're at 24 slots you're talking about something no smaller than a human being, maybe larger. 28 slots? Basically it's a car. So best of luck transporting that around conveniently. At the end of the day, the thing being described is... a tank. A big, magic tank. :)

Harry obviously needs one.

That looks like about tripple radius each time (27 fold in volume) so about 80 foot diamater sphere. So I think that is a magical house.

Yeah, that's just a flat out better solution than mine. Have I mentioned lately you folks at Evil Hat are awesome?
