Wulfric 06-21-05, 05:12 AM	In your opinion, what are the best four magic items for the starting-out iconic party? The rules are: four items, each costing no more than 1000gp, to equip a first level fighter, cleric, wizard and rogue. Obvious choices would be the Pearl of Power for a wizard and the Phylactery of Faithfulness for the cleric... but how about the rogue? Elvish Insoles - +3 to Move Silently (100 x 3 squared bonus) perhaps? So - wherever they come from - DMG, SRD, any other books or your own inventions following the creation rules - what are the best four items you could give to a first level party?

Wand of Cure Light Wounds(ridiculously cheap)- The cleric can have fun now, too! Scroll of Cure Light Wounds, arcane(50gp)- Just in case the group boy scout goes down and you need someone to heal. Quall' Feather Token, Tree (400gp)- it's like a ladder, but easier to carry.

Tolby 06-22-05, 01:28 PM	Not a magic item. I prefer tanglefoot bags for the rogue. Capable of immobiling targets making them easy prey for sneak attacks. Or if you need to run away buys you a round or two. Throw it where you here invisible creatures. Throw it on a door make it stuck closed.
