[QUOTE="yipwyg42, post: 3455321, member: 42566"] I am what some of you consider to be very lucky. I play usually 2 days a week and have for about 7 years. It seems to me though the last 3 campaigns that I have played in with my group have devolved into the area of severe Monty Haul. Recently my friend started up a game where we are all 3rd level characters, this is two items that we got last night without any effort. Cloak of Resistance +3, Cloak of Charisma +8 (this is not even listed in the dmg, the +6 is 36,000 itself). The armor that we got I believe would almost be 50'000+ Now yes we still are having fun, however we all believe that having to high of ability scores dramatically affects the game. The DM even had us when we rolled characters to limit our total bonuses to certain range to make sure that we are all relatively equal. Because of all this I have decided to drastically change the game I am running, I will have a major decrease in the power level of magical item shops, basically they exist but very rarely will you find high level mages running or working them. Any others have expeirencing the effect of A Monty Haul campaign. [/QUOTE]
