Reciently there was a dispensary (That's how they are called, right?) where instead of spawning by themselves, the king's gifts spawned next to a ton of bettles, and a bunch of PCs banded together to get them.
It's the first I was able to properly join into, since any other ended up with me being killed in 5 rounds by a PC with high level, a lot of supplies I didn't have, and I imagine pretty good weaons/armor.
It was nice to participate in one of these despite not being able to be a sufficiently high level to be competitive. I could have gotten 30 gp out of it and would still have put in the effort, because it was fun. I'd like to see more of these in the future if possible! :)
Always good to mix things up a bit.
