They have one scroll and five potions as party magic items. Current campaign, I have 6 players, each player has one permanent item, with three of them having two. It gives the players the ability to find and use a great magic item, but also limits their ability to access the said item. This is just how I use the magic in my campaign. Most magic items in my campaign are overlooked and left behind. Carrying capacity limits how much they can take with them and the time doesnt have to be unlimited to choose. Unless they have detect magic and identify handy, they grab what they can before reinforcements or something else comes along. I have found that a player character will take the ornamental sword that looks pretty but is useless in battle rather than a sword that looks battle used and worn but is a +1.

Obviously the odds are against you but in any of those 7 low level hoards it is a possibility. Starting at Table G on the hoard generation charts starting at p137 it is possible to get a “Rare” item. Looking at DMG p133 you will see the following expectation of hoard payouts over a typical campaign and includes all types of magical items combat, consumable or otherwise: However, I believe that this is just an estimate of when they would be expected to have actually procured one based on odds.
