The point being, I don't have a problem with being able to buy magic items in shop(pes), but I want to bring magic and mystery back to them.*  Characters no longer level in lock-step.  Level in lock-step? What do you mean?Then go to the 4e rules forum, and find some ways to shorten the combat grind. Yes. I'm thinking of applying the, what is it, -33% monster HP, +25% PC damage, common house rule. Or just reduce monster HP by up to half.For me it covers about 70%, but still doesn't touch powers and a couple other minor things.</blockquote>
