[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 6095355, member: 82106"] Poisons also do get stronger, as can locks, it depends on which variation of rules you follow in the DMG, there are actually a couple different ways to handle those things in 1e (monster poisons OTOH mostly work as you say, they are 'fixed level' things). That's the point though, most things DO get easier for a leveling up PC, and aside from (usually) monster poison and MAYBE locks depending your DM there are progressively harder versions of things to be challenged by. AD&D is far from having an entirely consistent idea about level scaling in any case. [/quote] I suspect this is one thing that in fact got broken in 3e, and 4e didn't fix it enough. Lan-"can somebody tell me how many experience points a lock needs to advance from level 1 to level 2"-efan[/QUOTE] FOR ME at least 4e reached a sufficiently good compromise. At least it sticks the dirty laundry under the bed instead of piling it in the doorway... ;) [/QUOTE]
