    …and expensive enough that you need to be a nobleman or a legendary hero to get it. The cost of the most basic healing potion is enough for a family to eat for a year.

      That’s true! Although I have to believe some clerics take pity on the poor and help heal them. But I guess that just points to the system being broken, I mean you shouldn’t have to rely on the good graces of a benevolent do-gooder. The govt should be providing a herbologist and cleric for every village, free of charge!

        Most settings have clerics be extremely rare, because the idea of a population that isn’t suffering is anathema to the modern mind.
