[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7349872, member: 12731"] Next up - scrolls. Here's a wild idea. Let's assume 5 consumables equal 1 permanent (item). That's 20%, twice the d20 default but less than half the official 5E suggestion. So a "bundle of scrolls" would be 5 scrolls, or 2d4 if you like randomness. Now, what if we assume it would be appropriate for a character to have one scroll bundle, given scrolls of the highest level he or she could cast? That is, the price of a 3rd level scroll bundle (that you can use at 5th level) is "5th". The price of a 9th level scroll bundle is 17th. How about that, to make scrolls feel precious and not simply a means to break the spells/day limits? Instead of a staff or robe appropriate for your level you could pick a scroll bundle. At the very least we would end up with way different prices than d20 (and Sane) - prices I've come to find creates a 3E feeling I do not desire in my 5e game. [/QUOTE]
