Which is why I was looking for something completely different than what he can already do. In that example, I tried giving him something for flavor to replace something else. And I failed. I don't blame him at all for not wanting the armor. And he sold it and got a good hunk of change for it, so he still came out ahead.My new choice of treasure is better than what he has without altering anything. He will get to swap a +1 weapon with a +1 weapon that can cast a utility spell. It's a spell that isn't boosting anything he has already boosted himself. And it's not granting him an extra spell to make him more powerful...it just gives him more options.If a player doesn't like it, and gets upset that he's not getting what he wants, that's not my problem at all. A player like that won't mesh well in my games. I don't believe players should expect any specific type of treasures. A character gets what he finds and makes the most of it. Anything I give specifically is supposed to be a perk. If he doesn't like the item, he can sell it and continue powergaming. I've heard people complain because their DM didn't give them Gloves of Dex when they played a Rogue, or a Bag of Holding because it's a "common" magic item. Player's that expect something makes me cringe.Anyway, I think he'll find this Heavy Mace interesting and hopefully he'll appreciate it. Thanks for the input though.</blockquote>
