I think it sounds like an idea worth considering. Although buying
even one of these means we can buy fewer level-3 items. Everyone has
something they want to buy now or set aside money for, right?
Gems Level2 Level3
1 2 5
2 5 2
3 7 0
(Meaning: if we buy 1 gem, then to buy seven other things at least
two of them must be level2 and the rest can be level3.)
A tradeoff in the other direction: let's assume we decide that one
person's level4 request is good enough for the party to be a good use
of our currently limited resources.
Gems Level2 Level3 Level4
0 0 6 1
1 3 3 1
2 6 0 1
If we decide that Berrian needs to speak Western Common, then I will
definitely go for a level2 item for him. The second item on my want-
list, for example.
