[QUOTE="Abraxas, post: 1826417, member: 1266"] My answer is: It depends, but generally no. So many things would have to be going wrong in such a game if you need to demand a value based split I would have to ask, why would you be playing in it. Lets say you're the fighter and every item found to date is a spell completion or spell trigger item (plus a few other items that only divine or arcane spellcasters can use). If this is the case there are probably other players (the rogue, the monk, the barbarian) who are also up the creek with respect to items and no one is likely to have anywhere near the resources they are supposed to have. In which case you should be talking to the DM, not demanding things from the other players. If on the other hand, its a campaign where none of the items are [b][i]ideal[/i][/b] for your fighter, there is still no reason you can't use some of the items, even if indirectly. The scroll of bull's strength may require the cleric to cast, but there's no reason it can't be the fighter's and the cleric has instructions to cast it on him when he asks. If you can't trust your fellow adveturers that much why would you be with them in the first place. If you're just going to sell the items why not sell off the ones no one wants anyways? Thats what our groups have done. [/QUOTE]
