[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 8084986, member: 6855114"] Keep on the border land was basic. ToEE, had a few magical armors but you were around level 8 and sometimes more when it was over. Basic and AD&D had different assumptions. The amount of high end magical items was not that great. The frost brand was not found be the majority of groups. In fact out of the dozen or so times I DMed the ToEE, only two or three ever found it. Prince Thromel was rescued two times and was once killed because the group fell for the illusion. So yes, there were some high end items, but they were not always found, especially if they were inthe hands of strong NPCs that could flee before getting killed. In fact, most of my groups were higher than 9th level if they were forced into the nodes. This often meant that the players were almost too high level for the scourge of the slave lords. The magical item shopping list you must be refering to must be the magical treasure table you could find in the nodes. Hardly a shopping list. [/QUOTE]
