[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 6250260, member: 1210"] So I feel like that article basically didn't say anything at all. It struck me as the biggest piece of filler to come out of any of the 5e related columns yet. :( It would be nice if they'd talked at all about how this relates to their proposed rarity system, or given us an example or two of some revised magic items. But this? To me, this was very much, "Campaigns give out some magic items... low magic, less so; high magic, more so", without any real substance to it. It was like a bologna sandwich with no meat, just that spread stuff that combines relish and mayo and mustard in one. And I thought that this column was for talking about monsters. It seems that its theme has evolved, which is fine, but at least the monster columns felt like there was something to them. [/QUOTE]
