You can create a counterfeit of a magic item with a maximum rarity equal to your proficiency bonus. To create items of higher rarity, the time and expense required increases by 50% for each category above the one you can create, and this counterfeit has a -2 to the identification DC for each category above its own, making it easier to detect. Ex. With proficiency 2 you can create an Uncommon forgery in 18 hours and 225 PP or a Rare forgery in 32 hours and 100 GP. DC: The base DC to detect a forgery is equal to 10 + your proficiency bonus + your Ability modifier. For each day of work on a forgery, a Craft check is made in secret for each day of creation. On a success, the detection DC remains the same; on a failure, the DC is reduced by 1. At the end of the work, you can only make a meticulous analysis to detect the forgery, making an Arcana roll against the DC. If you pass, you know the final detection DC. Using detect magic reveals that the item is a magic item as normal. The total creation cost of a counterfeit magic item is equal to the sum of an item similar to the one you intend to counterfeit and the gp value based on the item's rarity.
