I look at the problems you folks talk about and I simply don't see the same problems. To give you an idea, my 8th level fighter, before last session had exactly ONE magic item. We simply don't dump gobs of treasure in our adventures. Even our recent LMoP side campaign ended at 4th level with only two of the six pc's with a magic weapon, fairly minimal cash and AFAIK, no magic armor. So you dumping custom magic items perfectly fitting with the PC is just not a problem I'm seeing in my game. After all, why a +2 sword and not a Flame Tongue?  Which would throw a big wrench in the fighter. Why a Girdle of Giant Strength and not Boots of the North?  Or some other rare or very rare non-combat item. Yes, if you presume the PCs get everything perfectly tailored to their characters then sure they are more powerful. I don't play that way.</blockquote>
