It would be within reason as they all have a common enemy and the players are a big asset. Another thing I have considered doing is letting Seaquen offer magic items and services below market price. One idead I have is to have Seaquen offer them bonusses after they complete a mission to show their appreciation, but not as a payment for doing what they really ought to do anyway. That means that so far they are doing ok, but I do believe that it might be worth it introducing some heroic awards or incentives for the heroes further on. My players have always been focused on getting the all coins they can, so they are walking somewhat encumbered with a lot of armours and weapons they plan on converting to gold.

And it would have been nice with page references to the stat blocks - something I would advise for further revisions / editions. I have ended up typing a shorter version of the stats in a spread sheet, that I use while playing. We are currently at the elven village in the fire forest. Like Cyclone I got the 3.5 edition som months ago and started running it recently. I could simply increase loot/gold drops or generate more magic items for the group to bring them up to the typical PC wealth for their level, but I don't want to trivialise the difficulty of encounters if they are balanced around the PCs only having as much wealth as the book gives (and my giving them more would make them more powerful than the encounters are designed for). Is the DM intended to suppliment the notated loot drops with additional generated treasure? Is the loot/wealth gain generated in the encounters intended to have characters behind the typical PC wealth curve? As EN world wrote this amazing campaign I am hoping you'd know the answer to my question. I don't generate random treasure typically, and award the players loot specified in the encounters/NPC stat sheets from the campaign book. For example, at level 7 a PC should have a total value of 19,000g, but each of my group's players are far behind this - even with Indomitability's Boon which has a given value. I have noticed an issue though for me as a DM - the group's wealth is far behind the typical curve for player characters from the DMG. Group is currently level 6 and in the Sunken Prison in Seaquen. Very much looking forwards to taking it all the way to 20. Loving it, it's the best campaign I've DMed (the one gripe I have that all the NPC stats are waaaay at the back of that gigantic book and I gotta flip over 700 pages back and forth! ) I got the 3.5 WotBS all-in-one book some months ago.
