[QUOTE="Fenes 2, post: 717062, member: 6166"] Just to make it clear: I have no problem with players coming to me and telling me that they would really like their PC to have item X or weapon Y. I have a problem if they start roleplaying their PC looking for such an item without justification in-character. Or, to make it exactly clear: I hate PCs using the DMG in-game as a shopping tool in the magic bazaar - I have no problems with players shopping like that (suspect to DM approval) and then getting the items in various different ways during a campaign. Heck, one of my major plot-arcs is centered on a magic sword that has been broken into many parts, scattered among different countries and even planes, and sought after by both a PC and an evil undead mage, both sides going after all legends on magic swords that may carry a piece of that weapon. Each time a piece is found it combines with the other parts and the weapon becomes a bit more powerful. As far as the durability of magic weapons is concerned, imc magic items are not invulnerable. Those 100s of swords of ancient times may have found their ends through fireballs, acid, sundering opponents, disintegrate, drops into lava, melting down, rust monsters etc. [/QUOTE]
