[QUOTE="Maidhc O Casain, post: 5297982, member: 29558"] The group I played with - and the way I like to play - was far less particular about counting every copper piece. 'Good' items are 'good' items. If it get one now, I may express an interest in the next one that comes along but I'm not gonna press if someone esle wants it. So I guess my view regarding the bracers is this: Manachan can use them. His use of them will benefit him, yes. But in terms of this game, benefitting him is really benefitting the party. He's less likely to be hit, putting less drain on other party resources such as healing spells, potions, etc. In other words, whether he uses them or they're sold off, their only function is to help the group. The only difference is the type of benefit to the group. Selling them gets the others more toys. Giving them to Manachan makes him more effective, thus helping the others. Regarding the wand, Manachan's view is that it should be used however it will best serve the greater good of the city that currently employs him. I don't know what that is so I don't have a specific opinion about it. He would object to timing the sale so that it best benefits the party only if he thought that timing the sale would hamper the wands benefit to the city. Trying to squeeze this in between clients, so I'm rushed and probably not making a lot of sense, but there's my two coppers worth as best I can put it together right now. [/QUOTE]
