Golem Manual Rules

Are there generally accepted rules/equations for creating a Golem Manual? In particular, if I wanted to create one of the Dragon golems starting on page 163 of the Draconomicon, how much would the manual cost? What caster-level bonus should be applied? Obviously, the XP needed to create the golem must be expended - but how much more is needed to create the manual itself? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rahzum (talk • contribs) 18:13, 26 September 2008 (MDT).

No, there is no calculation. The best that I can offer is this: at what level should such a manual become available to players? Then use the Magic Item Compendium price tables to narrow you in on a final price. If the item is powerful enough, you may simply want to make it a minor or major artifact. Those have no price. --Dmilewski 06:57, 29 September 2008 (MDT)
