Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ondath" data-source="post: 8843800" data-attributes="member: 7031770">I'm pretty sure the wealth curve in O5E does not include magic items. In fact, Blackball's alternative treasure system (which was posted to ENWorld in 2018 <a href="https://www.enworld.org/threads/check-out-this-awesome-free-supplement-for-magic-item-prices-gp-xp-and-more.641281/" target="_blank">here</a>) does involve magic item pricing, and the result becomes insanely inflated as a result (though I think Blackball also inflates the amount of treasure a PC would gain over the course of adventuring, and I have no idea why his math came out that way), to the tune of a Level 20 character having ONE MILLION gp worth of treasure (including magic items) at the start of Level 20. So I think the difference between A5E and O5E must be explained by a deliberate reduction of the wealth curve.</blockquote>
