Robert Downey Jr with Avengers Endgame is almost certainly highest paid for a single production. He had a cut of back end+huge payment upfront because he was out of his '3 movies contract'

Added Item Sets

Spelling out in the 1st post that multi-attacking is gold in 4e.

The $150M doesn't include marketing — as an example, they likely paid several million for the Super Bowl ad. And then theaters typically take a 50% cut of revenue over the length of a showing — so the likely amount of money they lost is around $35M before the cost of marketing. There may be...

It was marketed in the way you'd market a bad movie that you were hoping to sucker viewers into going. It was a reasonably solid fun movie with good reviews(72 on Metacritic which is top 25% MCU level) that shouldn't have done that. I mean, just look at the 30 second Superbowl Commercial...

All done, colors entered. Thoughts?

Will be entering in colors now, leaving this one to add details later. Okay to comment, but be aware I haven't yet entered in the colors.

Epic Mirror of Nessecar Arcane AV2 The benefits are entirely dependent on campaign. The items are generally very solid, but you’re near 30th when you’re finding these things. This item set feels to be the capstone macguffin of a specific campaign designed to get the PCs to a specific...

Paragon Armory of the Unvanquished Group AV2 Not a huge fan of any of the weapons. Note the "wielding" specifics. Arms of Unbreakable Honor Paladin AV2 All reasonably solid stuff for a Paladin or Mounted Charger. Bonus to speed, ability to heal or transfer temps, prone with a...

Heroic Aleheart Companions' Gear Defense AV2 Both benefits really solid, items are all great except for what they mean for a likely PC using these items — a PC wielding a Rousing Hammer and using a Hammer Shield likely doesn’t have an item bonus to damage and has a penalty to hit, both...

Item Sets These sets have a variety of complicated small benefits usually added to a variety of items, making them hard to evaluate usually. I’m going by RAW for the color evaluation that you do not need to wield the weapons while describing why in the text wielding weapons is either good or bad...

Because I keep thinking about the Sorcerer-King Lesser & Greater Pacts, I went through and re-rated them all based on the actual printed text — which has some significant differences between printed and online compendium: Lesser Pact Each of these feats give you a +2 feat bonus to a certain...

Avenger handbook now readable again thanks to Dr3wcifer

I'd just note they're doing a bit better than how the movie they've been directly competing with domestic numbers-wise did at the same set of weeks — a week is not a trend, but they might beat out Dumbledore in domestic revenue if it keeps up, maybe hit $100M. On the other hand, international...

There's no pricing on keeps/kingdoms in DMG nor is that generally a common thing to do in any case for most PCs who in theory are wandering around the country/world/universe most of the time, so I don't think that's really a valid assumption, any more than it was in 1e. "You should spend insane...

Given how exponential treasure is in 5e, there really isn't a sane magic item pricing that's possible — hoards go from 3k in 5-10 to 30k from 11-16 to 300k in 17-20... i.e. any remotely sane pricing for items in 5-10 tier = crazy cheap in 11-16 tier

It would be kind of odd if it didn't hit approximately $90M domestic and didn't get slightly more international than domestic, so $175M is almost certainly low.

Yeah, I think it does $90M domestic, $100-110M international at this point with the $90M maybe a touch too high and need another week to see how international does.

Yeah, it has been really weird — the whole use of a mimic in the commercials was just unbelievable, because it isn't something people outside of D&D will appreciate. Its value is solely as an Easter Egg for players of D&D who are watching the movie. And it looks kind of stupid to non-players...
