    Default ECL "starting" Gold

    Hi all,

    Don't have my DMG handy, and it's not on SRD.

    What's starting gold for the various ECL characters?

    I'm mostly interested in ECL 8, but a listing of all of them would be very, very helpful since it seems most DM's tend to just say "ELC #" in their recruitment, and everyone then ends up asking "what's starting gold for ECL #".

    Example: ECL 18 = 440,000

    Thanks all!

    Now now, no one likes a tattletale!

    Seriously though, yes they are, I'd take them down if I were one of the folks who posted them. Especially since the OP has the information now and there is no reason to leave it up.

    They might not be unillegal to not unpost on a message board.

    It wouldn't be illegal to post a houseruled wealth by level, however.

    An example of my houseruled WBL:

    2 - 950 gold pieces
    3 - 2,750 gold pieces
    4 - 5,450 gold pieces

    Arrrr... thanks for mentioning that, guys, I didn't know.
    As you can see, I deleted my old post and instead put up my houseruled WBL values.

    /E: I also sent a PM to Jester to let him know about this.

    Would you mind telling me what gave you the idea for how to do levels 41-60? The table in the epic level handbook only goes to level 40.
    Like 4X (aka Civilization-like) gaming? Know programming? Interested in game development? Take a look.

    Google "Wealth by Level"
    It's the first result.

    You said "ECL" instead of character level, making me think your question was "I want to use the higher number." Yes, use the higher number, and pretend there was a question there.
