[QUOTE="Cascade, post: 7470733, member: 12879"] The gold values are simply unrealistic. (yes I know its a fantasy game). Lets say I want to copy and learn Scrying. It would be 1000 gp for the scroll, 1000 gp for the material component and 250 gp to copy. That's more than I will have earned in my entire career through level 14th level assuming I spent no gold prior. Even being able to select it when leveling it puts it out of the Tier before you can use it. You effectively might have 2 revivify castings available in all of Tier 2 play due to gold constraints. There are other interesting twists; you can be a knowledge cleric and have to prepare identify but wont have the gold to cast it until level 3. Chromatic orb isn't usable at level 1. True Rez is effectively banned. Raise Dead is now almost 4 levels of gold at Tier 2. You couldn't cast Leomunds Secret Chest - a 4th level spell until level 17! Yeah, I know its just an example. Each greater restoration is almost your entire haul each level level at Tier 2. Effectively, a wizard is now a sorcerer without the spell points. [/QUOTE]
