For example in my most recent 4E campaign you see heroes buying items that are like 150,000 - 400,000 gold pieces per item at epic levels. You look at items that are low levels 1-5 and you see that the items cost like 500-1000 gold, this would be an amazing thing that a poor person would really have to save up for a long time to get. I can definitely see where [MENTION=463]S'mon[/MENTION] is coming from and his looks more "realistic" from a medieval very little inflation standpoint. I look at what the item cost is as heroes level up and what can be expected to be bought at those levels. To me these heroes gain fame, fortune, and reputation as the most wealthy and powerful in the world and get paid at that kind of level to be able to afford the types of things that will get them the desired results (i.e. slaying a dragon with special weapons/armor).Let's face it, a lot of times characters that get to be levels 15+ are pretty much destined to become demi-gods a lot of times.</blockquote>
