[QUOTE="Desh-Rae-Halra, post: 6399524, member: 81852"] Thank you. I totally agree with this. The one time I tried Organized Play (maybe D&D 3.5?) I started at 1st level and basically just got to follow the party around. My class might as well have been "benchwarmer/servant/waterboy" while other higher level PCs walked around with literally decks of magic items. Like I said, I did this the one time I played and decided it wasnt worth the bother and didnt go back. *As an addendum, I did try D&D 5E Organized Play/Adventure League(?)at Gencon this year as everyone was 1st level (Shadow on the Moonsea?), but the last encounter resulted in a single NPC killing each member of the party in consecutive rounds (whatever he was, he got 3 attacks per round, any one could kill a PC) (I managed to escape because I had slowed his movement with Ray of Frost, and then jumped off the boat and swam away). yes, i got awarded the Magic Item for the session, but again this reinforced the unsatisfying feeling I had originally.
