[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 6288773"] 3rd is the bare minimum for getting +1 magical items to appear in loot in my games. When I start my games at 5th+ I let each player start with a basic magic item of their choice. Otherwise the following: Weapons don't drop from things that don't wield weapons. Wolves don't have daggers in their stomachs. -excepted for cases of massive mythical beasts. Cooler stuff comes from quest rewards than from grinding kobolds. Rewards are equal to danger, taking on more dangerous foes gets you better rewards. Clearing out a cave of bandits may get you more combat, but tracking down the assassin will make the king far more grateful to you. Players are able to locate and create "enhancement stones", which allow you to add a +1 to your current weapon (up to +5), to avoid the "gear grind" cycle and allow players to use their weapon of choice over the higher +X weapon that just dropped.
