Magic Items - Shatter/destroying

[Auric]

viewtopic.php?f=98&t=6832

Magic items are not by nature "unshatterable". Only items which have a ritual which explicitly states that it makes the item unshatterable will be unaffected by Shatters, Destroys, and Explosive traps.

These rituals include:
Render Indestructible
Render Indestructible Improved
Preserve Duration
Permanence

So your saying that any 1 year dragon stamp item, for example cloak curse 2/day, can be shattered?

I had always thought that magic items are un shatterable excluding the times ever items, unless that changed when they removed the expiration date.


Rulebook under shatter: If the item being carried is protected against the shatter ( such as by being strengthened or by being a magic weapon) then the psell is used up and will not affect another similar item in the possession of the target.

I can create a magic weapon - Damage aura with no extender, all items are now 1 year. So this can now be shattered??

EDIT* This rule would also include most of the goblin stamp items as well...

The owners have voted on a proposal regarding this issue. Due to this vote, the following shall now apply:

All items created through the ritual system that last for 1 year or longer are considered to be indestructible following all rules listed on the render indestructible scroll (other then times ever items and items created through high magic or spell crafting). Golems and summoned creatures will still follow all effects listed on their monster card; for example, Golems will still take damage from shatter and destroy. This in no way implies that ritually summoned or created creatures cannot be killed. Effects listed on the magic item tag (or in the case of transforms, summons, and created creatures, the monster card) may alter this effect.
