Plus, 5th ed generally balances due to the idea of "bounded accuracy". This means "don't let the numbers get too big". Its why you'll find 5th ed magic items are more restrained than previous editions. The DMG pg 135 also has guidelines on item rarity and the level PCs can expect to acquire such items | |
