[QUOTE="Geron Raveneye, post: 1288727, member: 2268"] Something that irks me each time I ponder the prices is the relative value of D&D gold. Not in relation to modern currencies, mind you, but in itself. If I gather the price tables correctly, they're done after a "What can it do/What is the price" balance fashion. So I was wondering if the value of gold can be set after some more life-like necessities. And here's the question I would love to hear your opinon on: How much cash does a typical farmer in any given D&D world need to feed and clothe himself and his family (arbitrarily: one wife, 5 kids of various age, no helper on the farm)? I'd like to try and set this by the Equipment table one can find in the PHB (I'm working with 3.0, but I DO hope they didn't change that too much for 3.5 ;) ). Any help is very appreciated. :) [/QUOTE]
