Upgrades

[TheRiov]

Ok, so check me on this:

From the fall of Azure City, the gang has gained the following:

Belkar:
Animal Companion
Removed Greater Mark of Justice
Improved understanding of 'getting along'
Possibly 1-2 levels depending on if he made a Fort Save

Haley:
Possibly 1-2 levels depending on if she made her Fort Save
Lost +3 Bow
Gained +5 Icy Burst bow
All of Crystal's protective Jewelry & her +4 Knife

Elan:
Gained at least 1 level
Added Mass Cure Light Wounds & Cure Poison


Vaarsuvius:
Gained a couple of levels (assuming nothing Xykon did drained them, seemed to only hit the splices)
Familiar picked up greater stature


Roy:
Gained a new feat (possibly)
Lost 1 level

Durkon:
Possibly gained a level or two



Looks like everyone else got SOME kind of power upgrade but Durkon seems to be left out every time. The most we've seen him ever get is the amulet of natural armor. Roy added his +5 sword, Elan picked up a +3 Keen rapier, Even Belkar got (and lost) his fireball skull. Why no love for Durkon?

Why no love for Durkon?

Because he hasn't earned any yet.

(You forgot Elan's new lute btw.)

[BatRobin]

Because he hasn't earned any yet.

(You forgot Elan's new lute btw.)

And don't forget how prison changed him and Thog.

Direct evidence showing Durkon getting love. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0082.html)

I think the reason Durkon doesn't change much is A, because he's a very "set in his ways" kind of dwarf.
and B, it provides something for the audience to connect the comic from its humble beginnings to its current status.

You forgot V's hairstyle and newly-compassionate nature.
