Not as many duplicate effects as with the other sets, but still lacking the imagination and inspiration I'd like to see in a product of this nature. Carries the feel of something simply slapped on paper. <br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Along with most the rest of this collection, it helped me fill out a large number of items I was creating for my campaign.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: Only barely worth the purchase price. Very little creativity.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

I bought a bunch of these (most if not all) and like them quite a bit. I'm always on the lookout for interesting magic items that are well made. These fit the bill well. Very reasonably priced as well. <br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Excellent<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>

I enjoyed the basic concepts behind Magic Armor II, and although a bit short, the material is well presented.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: I enjoyed the detailed write-ups about the armors.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: I disliked the repetitive nature of some of the armors. Too many of them were cookie-cutter duplicates of other armors already presented.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Disappointed<br>

I really like the Buck-A-Batch items. They might repeat the same text a few times just changing the type of item (like elemental). I still like them.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Neat ideas!<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: Repeats of the same items just the basic change (like element:fire, ice...).<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

Really great product value for the price, could be sold for even a little more. As a DM it's nice to have my players not immediately recognize every item they find or are awarded. I'm sure other DM's can identify with that!

The magic items contained within thiese pages are quite original and can add a unique twist to your games. Better than the usual "whatever +1" or "bag of holding"

I love the buck-a-batch series. Nice armor ideas and I can even pilfer it for other campaign plots.

Ah. In the last product were the Dragonscale Shields (10 of them), in this product are the Dragonscale Armors (10 of them). Add the Hunter Armors (14 of them), and half the promised magic items are gone. I was expecting this. These products could be considerably shortened if the repeat items were compressed to one entry and a subtable followed the main item description.

Of the wall shields, the Ironwall shield could use some tightening up. It is a cookie-cutter shield, the issue being that the wall of iron spell has a duration of instantaneous, so the created wall will never vanish. This is not a pressing issue, but I wish the authors would check spell descriptions before they copy and paste.

Of the quick-destruct shields and armor (they destroy themselves upon contact with the specified thing--fire, water), I find myself wondering why they cost the same to make as a normal, permanent magical suit of armor or shield. As a side note, the warp-quick shield would become useless immediately upon its creation, unless the ambient moisture were to be at 0%. Just don't breathe on it.

On the positives, I like the idea of the Complete Shield (a great defense versus a hulking hurler or other damage beast, but only once). I also like the Traveler's Armor.

What I bought this last time around will likely be the last of these products I'll buy. The one or two neat items per product are not worth $1 to me. You may decide differently.

GOOD RECOURCE, HOWEVER I THOUGHT USING THE SAME TEMPLATE FOR A WEAPON/ARMOR AND MODIFYING IT SLIGHTLY,AND LISTING THAT VARIED TEMPLATE 20 TIMES WAS KINDA CHEAP. BUT STILL A DECENT RESOURCE.

Great quick source of ideas for the serious GM. A must have for anyone's library of roleplaying goodies!

Lots of good stuff! A good resource for those DMs who need that something different without having to really work at it!
