TOPIC: Common Token Ideas

A few basic suggestions for basic equipment.

At the common level we could have:

Great Sword
Hammer
Dagger
Half plate

Uncommon
Flamberge
War Hammer
Kris
Full Plate

Rare
+1 Flamberge
+1 War Hammer
+1 Kris
+1 Full plate

I also like the Katana suggestion earlier. I would vote for making it d10 and fighter only like in AD&D. Given the "rare" status of the Katana in DnD, you might start at uncommon with Katana though, and then have the rare be +1 katana.

Ugh, looks like +1 full plate is an old UR, so maybe not an option?

I think some equivalent of a Cure Minor is always important in the common set for a year.

I would like to see more potions or scrolls.
Maybe a set of the scrolls like Bull's Str, Cat's Grace, etc.
Making them scrolls (only cast by one class) would prevent them from overpowering the uncommon potions.

I wonder if we could bump up healing consumables at common.

Have some 2 HP healing potions or edibles.

I like the idea of an edible, what it we left the 50gp gear item alone, left the 1hp healing potion alone, and replaced one of the weapons with an edible Turkey that say had a 1d3 damage wheel and could be eaten to recover 2hps, that would be funny and of use to Turkey leg runners in the future.

Putting forth weighted net for reprint consideration again this year since still think its a great item and it would be cool to have some with metal cores that would work better with the new sliders.

Going with the theme... how about:
Silver arrow (or sling bullet),
Silver dagger,
Garlic necklace.

I am not certain if you are suggesting all of these or just giving different options.

If you are suggesting all I have 2 issues. One it would be a lot more gold than has become the standard within the commons. Two it is a gear that would take place of a lot of useful commons for those that only play with the starting pack. That is part of the reason we slimmed down the gear several years ago. If playing with only a starting pack getting 2 of these in a pack would not make it easy to get slots filled.

I’m not sure which would fit the theme best so I was coming up with all the things.
