How many of your D20 Books do you actaully use?

I have a collection of over 200 d20 products...

Of them I'd guestimate I actually use nearly 40% in game play, 75% at least once in a blue moon.

Core books.
WotC class books.
BadAxe Dwarf and Half-orc books
FRCS, Magic of Faerun, Monsters of Faerun
MM2
Oriental Adventures, Rokugan Campaign, Way of the Samurai
Psionics Handbook
Manual of the Planes
Wizard's Adventure Path series
RttToEE
Of Sound Mind
Necropolis

Edit: Forgot Monte's Books of Eldritch Might

Edit#2: I just read all that. No wonder my backpack is so heavy. I guess lugging it around makes up for blowing off the gym today, though.

That's what's getting used right now over three campaigns.

Alright, who else besides me is envious. :D
 

books you use

My campaign is set in the scarred lands so I probably use more the most. Last session I used R&R I, R&R II, PHB, DMG, Ghelspad (lots), masters of the wild, CC1, CC2, Monsters of fearun, MM, and FRCS (feats) in prior sessions I have also used the quintissential - rogue,fighter, wizard, cleric and witch, Evil, hollowfaust, vile darkness. the one that I really havn't used is Divine and Defeated (its got good info but is probably the most useless book I own) I really use all the other books I own for 3e to a lesser degree (often but not every session):cool:

i just got rid of over $700 in d20 books due to lack of use. that is however less then 1/3 of my collection. the rest sees some use.

i just read what i typed and am feeling ill. i have way to much stuff.
 

books you use

traps and trechery or the quintessintial rogue are probable the "most usefull" they after all have the rogue stuff as wellas the thieves guild info for 3e - as a DM you've gotta have that even if you don't use it every session. but as a "player" they are priceless
 

well:
core books
some rules clarification etc from the spalts, one character going for a PrC.
Oriental adventures for new monk stuff and some feats and martial arts stuff
Used a monster from the BoVD last time.
Used soemthing out of Monsters of Faerun too.
Used some spells and some rules from MAgic of Faerun
i've used some rules out of tournaments, fairs and taverns, some npcs out of hammer and helm, ripped a map out of stronghold builders guidebook

so i guess 75% has seen some use, but only the core rules, OA and some splatt stuff gets used regularly... and the rules stuff is like "oh, lets play like that" then never looked at again...
 

I probably don't use much beyond the core rules, a few splatbooks, psi-handbooks and Eldritch mights while actually in game, but nearly everything I own (for all editions) gets some pretty heavy usage when I'm putting everything together before the game.
 

I have a large d20 collection as well (probably around 150 items), and I'd guess that bits and pieces of probably 75-80% of it has seen use. Its mostly sourceboooks since I always make up my own adventures. The most commonly used are:

Core 3 books
MM2
BoVD
Some of the Wizards splatbooks
Mongoose's Quint series
AEG's Mercenaries
Magic of Faerun
R&R
R&R2
Occult Lore
GR Shamans
GR Witch's Handbook
Tome of Horrors
Monsternomicon
Liber Bestarius
Armies of the Abyss and Legions of Hell
Traps & Treachery 1 and 2
Spells and Spellcraft
Monster's Handbook
Book of the Righteous
Kingdoms of Kalamar Handbook
