I was skeptical at first but I picked some of these at Paizocon and they are a lot of fun. The players really enjoy the interplay with the cards and being able to 'handle' their treasure.

That said... The campaign specific ones make sense because you are going to use almost all of them. These random decks you wind up using only 1/4 of the cards so it's tough to see it as a good value for the money.

When this item was announced I and my group were none to happy about the random concept that was applied to the second and third set. Though as time progressed and I got free packs I began to look at them differently.

Now looking at them from a long term stand point I have grown to enjoy them greatly. The "random" quality of the sets does not always feel really random (two identical boosters card for card) but it gives me multiples of the high consumables that my group uses. This way all the cure light wound potions look the same. Or a group of military NPCs all carry equipment that looks the same. And since there is no; common, uncommon, rare, and ultra rare I have no problem buying them because I don't feel pushed into trying to complete a set that is nigh impossible to do by just buying the packages.

All being weighed and measured the product was a wonderful addition to the item cards but because of being called "random" it burned many customers who have been burned by such products in the past.

I recently ordered a package from Paizo, and received one of these booster packs free. I enjoyed the gift.

After spending some time reviewing what these cards where and talking to my fellow players, we agreed that in fact it would add to much work to be used as treasure, and to much to store all these cards with their character sheet. a itme takes up 1 line of text on a character sheet. As opposed to a card.

We considered the idea of using it to determine random treasure, but then realized that we would need enough cards(duplicates) to match the possibilities in the DMG.

Like i said, i like the idea, i just cannot find it useful.

The artwork is top-notch, the design excellent and the descriptions quite creative, so the only part of this card set that I don't like is the randomness and duplicates. But it is fun to open a new booster pack to see what you get.

I've been buying a pack here and a pack there for several months now. I now have need to purchase sleeves to hold and display what I have and keep track of what I do and I don't have out of the set. I detail the cards and what they before I show them to the players so having the option of a factory set, no matter how expensive would be appreciated.

This system of random cards in booster packs is less satisfying. I love the original item deck, wish this was like that one.

The prduct is great, but. I really think it would be a good idea to have several sets that were even more specific. I loved the original box, but I hate random. I have to agree with the people who wrote about having a box of weapons...3-4 of each weapon in the PHB each a different picture..then an armor one done the same way and then one of the wonderous items. I know one that wouldn't sell too well though..scrolls and potions.. I have about a hundred of each already...but only one great sword. It is not worth it to keep buying random pacts in hopes of another great sword and get more potions and scrolls. I really do love the idea though and the cards are good quality.

A good concept executed well. Obviously I enjoy the cards but there are a few things I'd like to see done differently.

I'm not thrilled with random distribution but I understand why it is done and can live with it. However, I'd like to see less scrolls, potions, and (especially) wands and staves and more armor, weapons, and wondrous items instead. Yes, characters use a lot of scrolls and potions but I really don’t need a lot of different pretty pictures of them. In many cases they are items that I can be comfortable just giving my players printed cards of. I find that the amount of wands and staves in this set far outpaces their use by my players and again I don’t need wands with many distinct looks – I’d much rather have more variations of armor and weapons.

The artwork is good and there is a nice feel of consistency from the fact that one artist is responsible for all of it. However, this does result on a lack of variation, as any artist will tend to use the same style repeatedly. I like the artist’s style but it would nice to get some variation.

I would like you expand on these item cards to cover everything in a world even dishes books artifacts expesially.I would like to log in all the items I put in my world with these cards I've boughten 10 pack so far and will spend every extra dollar and pop can on more!please come out with more thanks -jeremy

I have bought quite a few of these now and I am very pleased. My players really like them so far and it is cool to have a physical representation of every item a charatcer could have. Since I have every character sheet in its own folder these cards were easy to keep. The art is first rate and the cards seem durable even after multiple writings and erasings. I random aspect is a little annoying but with the main 54 non-random card pack available I really don't seem the need for so much negativity against this product.
