My bad guys always always always try to use their treasure, although they occasionally wind up with stuff they can't use if they got it from killing adventurers. That's why the Silver Dragon was wearing his Ring of Protection for more AC instead of just sleeping on it or something. Well-connected NPC types who have access to markets that trade in magic items might even sell the items they have but cannot use for half price and use the funds to buy things they can use. The best way to get random treasure that's just sitting around tends to be against mindless or low-Int enemies that hoard shinies or ancient ruins with construct, trap, and mindless undead defenders, or something like that. I have been known to give out tons of treasure though, on occasion. Sometimes my FtF group has to pull out ten sheets of paper because they just found thousands of gems and hundreds of art objects and magic items. Of course, that was the time that they gave them to an evil NPC to keep track of them. They didn't know she was evil except one PC, and ironically she didn't do anything wrong, but the one PC stole everything and blamed it on her: "Oh, I just found out she's evil." He gave it all as a bribe to another NPCKeia said:So we lose treasure too!!!![]()
Plus bad guys always have more time on their hands than the good guys do !!
