[QUOTE="hamishspence, post: 3419988, member: 41555"] [b]Randomisation[/b] I thought that the table had one big advantage. If you are a lazy dm, and randomly generate treasure, the table heavily nixes the risk of having an item way above character level. Using the DMG system, a (VERY LUCKY) roll on the major magic item table might mean that 10th level party beating 10th level monster gets a staff of power. BAD idea. And resentment if DM takes it away from party. with MIC table, you need a very lucky roll at 20th level, a 19th level party cannot find one. the table implys that the lower limit for items should be 5 levels lower, upper limit 5 levels higher.
