Many times I've wanted to just get started (especially at higher levels) and the adventuring gear was something we'd just say "I've got armour+2, weapon+3, oh and just standard adventuring stuff".The packs you're thinking of were geared towards classes as well. The argument here is that stronger characters will carry the heavy gear like hammers/picks/spare weapons, while the weaker characters will just carry their survival gear.The following are suggestions:Food/WaterRope (silk/hemp depending on cost/weight)Pen/InkSpare Spellbooks/ScrollsBackup weapons (dagger/light hammer/etc)TentBedrollBlanketMount/SaddleDonkeyMonthly upkeepOf course most of these will depend on the money involved.With the monthly upkeep, the DMG has an optional rule about upkeep - i think the moderate level was 45gp per month. What I did with this was that characters would buy their initial adventuring kit (from your pre-made kits for example) and then the 45gp per month included basic restocking/repairs to that equipment (and subsequent purchases of a mundane nature). It also covers inn fees, food supplies both in and out of town etc.</blockquote>
