Message: <blockquote data-quote="Paraxis" data-source="post: 6515880" data-attributes="member: 13009">Thats pretty much my whole point.  Without set prices for things that improve or expand character power gold is pretty pointless.  The DM sets the cost of fluff items like castles, shops, temples, taverns, slaves, servants, farms, ships, flying ships, pegasi, .......whatever and he also controls the amount of gold earned. So why bother keeping track, the DM should hand out cookies when he wants them to have them.I much prefer a system where gold is another thing that provides options and choices for optimization.  With expected wealth by level or treasure parcels, random treasure and nothing to spend it on that matters makes treasure pointless.</blockquote>
