    I'll roll up some treasure for you guys at some point. I would do it now but Breaking Dawn is about to start.

  • oxybeoxybe Entei is appaled and disappointed in you Registered User regular
    i would actually say we try without any extra treasure.

    after all, isn't 5th ed supposed be playable without any magic dewdads?

  • DenadaDenada Registered User regular
    I have finished watching Breaking Dawn Part 2, gone home, opened up Excel, and made my computer do math for me. According to my calculations, assuming nothing but average encounters for every level, and taking the suggested "middle of the road" treasure rewards, you should each have 11,712 gp and 5 sp. So that's what you each have.

    Now, add your starting gold to that, then you MUST purchase everything you have that isn't given to you for free by some element of your character (do backgrounds or whatever still do that? I haven't looked).

    The DM Guidelines do indeed say that magic items are not assumed as part of your rewards, but having no magic items is dumb because this is D&D and D&D has magic items. So I will be referring to the included guidelines in the Magic Items PDF to give you magic items.

    This process replaces math with rolling. Again assuming nothing but average encounters, that's 140 encounters that you've been through to get to level 14. After consulting the Average Encounter table and rolling roughly 300 times, fate has determine that you have received 139 Common items, 27 Uncommon items, 4 Rare items, 2 Very Rare items, and 2 Legendary items.

    But I'm not done! No, that would be too kind. Now I have to figure out what specific items to give you. I'll start with the common items, because there's only two kinds. At 139 items, I think we would probably approach an even distribution between 1 and 2, so I'm going to save myself an aneurism and split them 50/50, giving you 70 Potions of Healing and 69 Potions of Climbing. I'm further going to assume that you had to use some of those during the last 140 encounters (and their surrounding adventures). Given how deadly an Average encounter can be, I'm going to say you used 90% of your Potions of Healing, leaving you with 7. Climbing is probably less of a thing, but what the hell, let's say you used 60% of those, leaving you with 27.

    Now, moving on to Uncommon. This gets trickier. Uncommon items are more varied, with 23 options to choose from. Four of those options are types of +1 Armor though, and +1 Armor has its own random distribution table. But that doesn't make any sense, since you've already determined rarity before determining what kind of item you're giving out. So I'm just going to include those four items in the larger list (their distribution spreads on the +1 Armor Table are close enough to each other anyway).

    Okay, so 27 more rolls. The results are (1) +1 Studded Leather, (2) +1 Chainmail, (2) Glamoured Studded Leather, (1) +1 Weapon, (1) Mace of Disruption, (1) Wand of Enemy Detection, (5) Wand of Magic Missile, (2) Potion of Poison, (1) Ring of Water Walking, (1) Spell Scroll, (1) Bag of Holding, (2) Boots of Elvenkind, (3) Dust of Dryness, (1) Pearl of Power, (3) Slippers of Spider Climbing. A few more rolls helps me determine that the Spell Scroll is a Scroll of Mass Invisibility, and the +1 Weapon is a +1 Dagger.

    Only 4 Rare items to get through. Out of the 32 options available, the dice have given you (2) Arrow of Dragon Slaying, (1) Ring of Protection, (1) Boots of Speed.

    Out of the 19 available Very Rare items, the two you get are (1) Potion of Flying, (1) Ring of the Ram.

    Finally we come to Legendary, which has 8 options. Of those, you get (1) Vorpal Sword, (1) Cloak of Invisibility. And now I am officially done handing out magic items.

    So to sum up, your exploits (and nearly 400 dice rolls) have earned you:
    -11712.5 gp EACH
    -7 Potions of Healing
    -27 Potions of Climbing
    -1 suit of +1 Studded Leather
    -2 suits of +1 Chainmail
    -2 suits of Glamoured Studded Leather
    -1 +1 Dagger
    -1 Mace of Disruption
    -1 Wand of Enemy Detection
    -5 Wands of Magic Missile
    -2 Potions of Poison
    -1 Ring of Water Walking
    -1 Scroll of Mass Invisibility
    -1 Bag of Holding (thank the gods for that, huh?)
    -2 pairs of Boots of Elvenkind
    -3 helpings of Dust of Dryness
    -1 Pearl of Power
    -3 pairs of Slippers of Spider Climbing
    -2 Arrows of Dragon Slaying (yes, these are individual arrows)
    -1 Ring of Protection
    -1 pair of Boots of Speed
    -1 Potion of Flying
    -1 Ring of the Ram
    -1 Vorpal Sword
    -1 Cloak of Invisibility

    About to head for bed. (night shifts? WTF.)

    If there's someone else who hasn't played yet and wants to, I'll gladly step out for 'em, but if you need another let me know, I can whip up a character pretty quickly this evening--I spend the first four hours of my shift sitting in a trailer playing video games.

    If my role play is hindered by rolling to play, then I'd prefer the rolls play right, instead of steam-rolling play-night.

    Well, looks like I'm redoing my shopping list. Anyone particularly attached to any of the boots? I'd like either the Boots of Speed or one of the Boots of Elvenkind.
    The arrows and Ring of Water Walking would be next on my list if nobody cares.

    Edit: I'll put the arrows and Boots of Speed in my inventory for now.

    @Denada, since we're rolling in dough, can we buy magic items? I know the material says a market for them may not exist =p.

  • DenadaDenada Registered User regular
    If this were 4E I would say yes, because there are rules for that. But this is 5E, so magic items are so rare that no one would want them or even know how to value them properly even though the Magic Items PDF gives a handy table for properly valuing them.

    I'm thinking, cloak of invisibility, +1 dagger, one set of spider slippers, and all of the dust of dryness.

    Then I'm spending half my money on a mithril shirt, because screw medium armor.

    And then wonder what to spend the other half on because while the game seems dedicated to wrapping itself in old-school trappings it doesn't have rules for employing an army of hirelings.

    Also poison is fucking terrible. 100gp for a single application that adds 1d4 damage to a weapon on a failed save for roughly the space of an encounter, what?

    yes and no! though thank you for pointing out a small misscalculation on my part.

    looking at the "how to play" document, page 4, STRENGTH.

    to determine how many pounds you can carry unencumbered, multiply your Strength score by 10: 160lbs.

    lift & drag weight:to determine this weight, multiply your unencumbered carrying capacity by 5.

    so it seems i flubbed and wrote down 900lbs when it should be 800lbs.

    my bad.

    Roger that. I guess Ibilid will take a pair of Spider Climb boots and the Ring of Protection. Otherwise I'm not seeing a whole lot that a punchy monk can make use of. Except Potions of Healing. I think we'll be needing a few of those.

    i'm saying we take the bag of holding and fill it with 500 pots of healing.

    that will cost about a little over 2 shares of the gold the party has. i'm willing to throw 11700 of my share for 234 potions of healing.

    just find ourselves an alchemist, lawfully chain him up in a basement and throw ingredients at 'im until we have enough potions to drown an elephant four times over.

    i'm saying we take the bag of holding and fill it with 500 pots of healing.

    that will cost about a little over 2 shares of the gold the party has. i'm willing to throw 11700 of my share for 234 potions of healing.

    just find ourselves an alchemist, lawfully chain him up in a basement and throw ingredients at 'im until we have enough potions to drown an elephant four times over.

    I'm down with this plan. You can include Ibilid's share in that as well. That's 468 Healing Pots.

    I'm thinking, cloak of invisibility, +1 dagger, one set of spider slippers, and all of the dust of dryness.

    Then I'm spending half my money on a mithril shirt, because screw medium armor.

    And then wonder what to spend the other half on because while the game seems dedicated to wrapping itself in old-school trappings it doesn't have rules for employing an army of hirelings.

    Also poison is fucking terrible. 100gp for a single application that adds 1d4 damage to a weapon on a failed save for roughly the space of an encounter, what?

    Flasks of oil. 1 silver piece each and so many uses.

    btw: I'm going to post a 14 level version of Archibald II today or tomorrow to fill the ranks when needed.

    I guess we could buy something like 200,000 flasks of oil, and then when we find the cave of the mud wizard just pour them all in and throw a match.

    Do they have hirelings or statted guard dogs out of curiosity? With bounded accuracy and a lot of them....

    They have a Human Commoner and a Human Warrior statted up, but no dogs. The Human Warrior can hit Asmodeus on a 13, the Commoner on a 14.

    How much to hire a warrior for a day? For a 3000 gold we can buy 100 silver arrows, 10 longbows, and 10 silver greatswords to arm ten warriors.
