[QUOTE="Gizzard, post: 286832, member: 527"] Well, like I said in a very early post in this thread, I am running through the standard module series. (So, the treasure there should be well balanced for what the designers intended.) As the Monk, I probably have the most money leftover of anyone, but right now (5th level) I have about 800 GP, not 8000 GP. I might commission (another) masterwork Nunchaku (the first one was eaten by an ooze), but at this point it hardly seems worth it. Our group is pretty low magic, but if you look in the DMG p52 it has a "standard" NPC Monk, with equipment appropriate for various levels. Under weapons it says: Kama (Melee): Masterwork (1st-2nd), +1 (3rd-9th), +2 (10th-13th), +3 (14th-16th), +4 (17th), +5 (18th-20th). So they are figuring 10+ level for a +2 weapon. Assuming that they are being conservative for NPCs; what is a fair level for a PC to get a +2 weapon? 8th? Thats still high-level in my book. I'm seriously curious about this; if you are enjoying playing a Monk - what level are you? Did you play him all the way up (ie, did you start at first level?) [/QUOTE]
