[QUOTE="EvolutionKB, post: 4474969, member: 47833"] In my opinion, the items in the PHB are rather limited. It wouldn't surprise me if most characters in the games would have rather similar sets of items, which goes against the whole designers intent with 4E items in the first place. I am all for including the Vault as a source of items(variety is good in this case). I also like to the idea of DM created items. Balanced original items are great(a simple vote like: is this item more, less, or right on par in terms of power with items of similar level and function?). l I think a vote would suffice with a required 80% required for admittance in game. Story items are different(a magic sword that allows entry into a specific place was mentioned by Graf), this is not a big deal, as long as the item "special" power doesn't become an issue.("Oh that tower in the hills? Well me and my friends got rid of all the monsters inside, and used the treasure we found to fix it up. The only way inside is shouting 'I'm a transgender orc stripper' and putting the blade into the the weird hole in the door. Sure I'll sell it for that Vorpal Executioners Axe. Here you go.") [/QUOTE]
