[QUOTE="WotC_Trevor, post: 5692495, member: 82759"] I posted this over on the Wizards community, but saw this conversation going strong over here and thought it would be good to share. I've seen a couple people say things like "most of MME is reprinted stuff" or "there's a lot of reprinted stuff" so I just wanted to step in and give some actual numbers. Dan Helmick, one of our awesome editors, grabbed these for me so I didn't have to go through and count on my own. Looking at straight crunch, MME contains the following data: [LIST] [*]7 new types of armor [*]55 pieces of equipment (6 updated) [*]20 feats (1 updated) [*]277 magic items (47 updated) [*]6 monsters [*]58 weapons (53 updated) [/LIST] So that would be 423 entries in total, and of those 423, 107 previously existed in one form or another. Many of the magic items that were updated come from Adventurer’s Vault 1. Most of the superior implements come from Dragon 385 and Player’s Handbook 3. The remaining weapons are from all over the map. So if you look at the raw numbers, about 25% of the book consists of updated or reused material. And why reprint that material? Well it was updated and this book was definitely a good fit for it. Most of the book is definitely still new stuff however, and there's a lot of interesting items in there (IMO). Of course, to each his own - I just wanted to give some actual numbers for the discussion. [/QUOTE]
