[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9114637, member: 2209"] I think percentage of use is the wrong way to look at it. Did the use you got out of it add value to your games or enjoyment in reading it? Was that value worth the money spent on it and the time spent reading it? If you played your 2e priest and got value from the info from the page on their Kossuth priesthood and god and religious organizations and religious values the religion express and enjoyed the non-cleric specific abilities of your class tuned to a specific theme then I can see valuing it even though it was one page out of 400. If it was just using it as the page for the class mechanics and ignoring or rejecting all the descriptive elements on the other pages about Kossuth and his religious organization and the class turning out to not really be a value add for you over the standard 2e cleric and not enjoying the descriptive elements I can see considering it a waste of money. I too got the books in the 90s. I have read them cover to cover, enjoyed them immensely, and have used the descriptive elements in my homebrew mashup campaign with the Faerunian pantheons as a few pantheons out of many in my setting with one PC going deep in one of the religious organizations as really significant in his 3e character's background and the book provided great inspiration and launching off points for both me and them. I used a bunch of Nobanion stuff as an element when I was running a Pathfinder 1e Reign of Winter campaign in my setting. I used a bit of Umberlee stuff as a recognized dark sea cult in my Freeport games in my setting.
