It has to be more like Captain America's shield, or Batman's utility belt, in a points-buy game: namely, something which is part of the fighter's build, not a generic reward for successful play which is accrued by the whole group.That would be a big change for D&D: 4e has a few things like this (Executioner Assassins' poison-making, Koblod slingers' gluepots adn the like), and I have seen those aspects criticised by those who don't like 4e's approach to metagame mechanics in PC build and action resolution.</blockquote>
