I played D&D, AD&D 2nd edition, optional rules, and finally 3e and 3.5e. When I saw how 3e/3.5e had the method for item creation I was like OMG thats wonderful YAY! A little over a year ago I introduced 2 groups I DMed to outfitting their characters the way its done in the RPGA. Most at 1st were like WHAT? That's crazy! We don't get loot as we go along in dungeons to keep? No use it or lose it in dungeons. When you advance you get a set amount each level. You can delete everything you have and replace it with totally different stuff each adventure as long as you have gone to a community able to have the equipment you want. It took some months for it to really sink in. Once it did the players were like this is great. That's just how I felt as the DM. No more guessing what items to put into the adventure. If I wanted something for them to recover or felt they needed something more for the adventure I included otherwise I didn't need to.Regardless of how 4e is I intend to continue doing it the same way.</blockquote>
