[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8519200, member: 6801845"] This came up in another thread and I was curious how other people handled it. I don't think there's any right or wrong answer here, unlike some previous editions the magic mart is obviously not the default. I'm not talking about things like common potions of healing here, rather anything from that +1 sword to a +3 boomerang. So how do you handle it? Note that I don't think the actual means of purchase matters much for purposes of the poll. In addition, if there's a handful of magic items that are banned, or the PCs have to travel to a big city, that shouldn't affect your vote. [LIST] [*][B]Yes [/B]would be magic item stores that sell everything under the sun. Specific items may take some time to procure, but it will always be available. [*][B]Usually [/B]could include a brokerage service to give people something to do during their downtime, but most things are available. [*][B]Occasionally [/B]means it's hard to find anything specific but something might be out there. [*][B]Rarely, [/B]as it says. Items are almost never available for purchase. [*][B]Never.[/B] Go plunder some dungeon if you want it. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
