[QUOTE="Tallifer, post: 8054247, member: 84661"] Having now played a lot of 4E with the Living Guild crowd on discord/roll20, I have come to better understand the different assumptions of 4E. Because 4E assumes a certain amount of treasure per level and ye olde magic shoppe (and provides easy rules for the dungeon master for that), players can buy a wide variety of cheap wondrous items and consumables such as magical ammunition and elixirs to create little magical effects. A higher level example: [B]Pouch of Frozen Passage[/B] Level 9 Uncommon Wondrous Item 4,200 gp Power Daily (Standard Action) You fling ice crystals from the pouch onto an area of open liquid, freezing up to 20 contiguous squares of the liquid's surface. The frozen surface is normal terrain and can support the weight of up to twenty Medium creatures, five Large creatures, or one Huge creature. The pouch of frozen passage can solidify any sort of liquid, from water to lava. The frozen surface has the following statistics: AC 3, Fortitude 15, Reflex 3, hp 20 per square. It lasts for 4 hours or until destroyed. [/QUOTE]
