That's what I'm doing anyway. So players quickly realize that obtaining such items is a lot of hardwork ,and they rejoice when they actually gain some decent gold/magic item. That's how D&D Next was meant to play right from the playtest packets. That platemail armour should be legitimately earnt. Think of it in terms of reality, who owned platemail armour in our reality? Kings and very wealthy nobles/knights, very few basically. The rest had chainmail/leather. Platemail should be earnt the hard way imao. If you, as a DM, proceed and have massive massive loot all the time, well then the game will wear off very quickly, and the PCs will easily obtain items of all types including general provisions etc, no fun in that, encounters should be challenging and the PCs should be scared about dying like real life imao.</blockquote>
