[QUOTE="werecorpse, post: 7983743, member: 55491"] I noticed you again ignored the fact that I answered your statements that what I said as to what was done and found in 1e (except the flying throne of the gods which I said we recognised as not RAW and was a one shot which you keep harping on about - classic straw man stuff, well done). So you defeat everything and find all the loot in G1 (Your words)? What about the room where you get a bunch of rolls ( About 50) on a random table with each roll giving you an 18% chance of getting a random magic item? You missed that. and you’re right no rings of 3 wishes In G1 (unless you roll one) but there is one in each of G2 and G3. But no +1 swords either - that giant slayer and the two flame brands might come in handy against say frost giants. and what is your point? mine is that some 1e stuff had pretty huge treasures and you could get pretty crazy loot piles just By following the rules. I have never said All games were played that way (in fact in my post where I mentioned the killing of Kas and Vecna I said we also played a low power game that went about 15 years to end in the high teen levels) you are putting words in my mouth Or just misinterpreting what I’m saying to try and bolster your argument. I’m saying that stating that low power was the only way people played (or could legitimately play RAW) back in the day is just wrong - your point seems to be that what Im saying couldn’t happen in 1e playing by the rules. That is also just wrong. [/QUOTE]
