[QUOTE="haus48, post: 5556825, member: 31181"] WbL is somewhat of a misnomer I think. It is really magic items by level. How many characters really use their wealth for anything else? In D&D (1st-3.5, never read 4th ed) magic items really make up a big power chunk of your character and his abilities. When you are playing in a home campaign the DM can adjust the adventure to match the party, in a more general group campaign (like for pathfinder society play) or for published modules the guidelines are necessary to make sure everyone is (roughly) playing on the same playing field. If I still had time to create and play in home games I would probably not be such a fan, [FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#000000][COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]but as published adventures and pathfinder society play have become my only play options WbL has kind of become a necessary and mandatory evil.[/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#000000][COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]Here is a question, have people found that WbL helps for published adventure and PFS play? If you do not like WbL how would you balance published adventure and PFS play a different way?[/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
