The Spell component pouch is kinda a 5gp tax on the wizard, but I think it adds a lot of flavour. But there's no listing of the contents and no number of uses. The wizard buys it once at 1st level and they don't ever need to restock-up on bat guano or pork fat again.
I was thinking of adding a limit to the number of times a single pouch can be used. Tracking individual components seems the way of madness, so a cap on uses (like a healing kit) seems to be the idea way.
Off the top of my head let's say 50 uses for 10 uses per gp with each spell with a material component using 1 user per spell level.
Or would it be better to just go with something like 25 uses (5/gp) with no spell variation.
And, of course, Knowledge (nature) or (arcana) might be able to restore a couple uses from a corpse or when exploring the wilderness.
Thoughts?
