Enchanting Rods which work as Weapons...

[zugschef]

Is this possible? Can you enchant a rod like the Python version (+1/+1 quarterstaff) with nifty stuff like warning, defending, etc.?

If it is, how do you price it? Do you simply disregard the rods function(s) beside being a weapon?

Personally I just add the price of a masterwork club, mace, or whatever it happens to function as to the price of the rod (including any seperate magical enhancements).  Otherwise using a non-weaponized rod as a weapon is just an improvised weapon, probably equating out to a club.

It is added on with no surcharge, so you can have a +2 Flaming Mace/Rod of the Sandwich Summoning.

i guess it's dm dependent... at least i couldn't find any information in core or the mic on the topic...
