    We got a handful of new magic items in Fizban's Treasury of Dragons. Not only did we get them for a variety of rarities, we also got some sorely needed things...like magic items for monks and a new bow! What do you think?
    Thanks for watching!

    Hey that dragonlance is actually great for the DrakenWarden.

      If you want to arm your city watch with firearm analogues and be powerful. My home brew for Cantrip Arms. There 9 tiers of them. +1~+3 and levels of damage, lvl1-lvl5-lvl11.
      This way your police force has power levels equal to what you think is fair for the area and players have access to attack cantrips outside of class. Lowest tier Firebolt Cantrip Arms would be +1 to hit and 1d10+1 to damage.
      Ps: you also have to use Dex to hit so it acts like a weapon than a wand.

      Or you can just use it to get Wish on any full caster. The lack of limitations on that feature is pretty epic, as like the Wish spell itself it allows you to gain access to any spell in the game as needed, with the tradeoff that you need to pick it at the start of the day... but you can cast that spell as many times as you have slots for, so if you pick something more mid-level like Raise Dead... you could be a Wizard bringing your friends back to life three times a day with no material cost. And on the high end, yes you could take Wish... but unlike Wish you could also take any 9th level spell, giving you true access to all spells in the game not just ones of 8th level or lower.

    - When a rogue has advantage against a creature and lands a hit from a melee attack roll, they can have the target make a DC 15 Con saving throw. On a fail, the target is put to sleep for 1 minute. The save for +1 rare night night stick is DC 16 and the +2 very rare is DC 17.

  • @Lord_zeel
    @Lord_zeel 2 роки тому

    So that Ruby Weave Gem... it says you "ignore" the material component up to 500gp in value per charge. By *ignore* that would imply that not only the cost of the component is negated, but the component itself is not required. For most spells, that doesn't matter, but there is at least one spell for which it's crucial: Planeshift. The cost of the tuning fork isn't the limiting factor, it's the ability to find one attuned to the plane you want to visit that's tricky. But this gem allow you to *ignore* the material component, and the tuning fork is well within the cost range for just one charge. This potentially means that with this item, there is no restriction on planer travel, and what's more - any caster with 7th level slots could use the second ability to get the spell. And unlick *Gate*, the plane shift spell doesn't have a convenient clause that says planer rulers can block you.

      @@jadenlustre4612 That's fair. I've only been a player in one successfully long running 5e campaign and Tomb of Annihilation has some pretty big loot early on. At level 4 my monk briefly had the Ring of Winter because our party defeated a level 13 sorceress who had stolen it from Artus Cimber. I ended up returning it to him because he convinced me that he would be able to keep it safe better than our party but the sorceress ended up returning later and stole it from him again so next time we're not giving it back to him.
      Our Paladin got Dragonbait's Holy Avenger when he died fighting at our side, and we managed to acquire 2 or the 4 big artifacts that are in the Tomb of the Nine Gods. There wasn't that many magic items in Tomb of Annihilation but most of the ones that were there were super high level

    Topaz Annihilator isn't actually that powerful. 2d6 damage isn't very different from its base 1d12 damage, and necrotic damage is probably worse than magical piercing. Its only unique properties are "reducing to dust" and a free Disintegrate spell. The former is mostly flavor in the player's hands or a way of keeping players from doing stupid things in NPC's hands; it's not something that directly increases the power of the weapon.
    What I'm saying; Remove free Disintegrates and you'll get a pretty decent Uncommon or, at most, Rare magic gun that you can throw around pretty casually.

      If it’s a ranged weapon, you automatically add DEX. No weapon specifically tells you to add an ability modifier, you just add STR for melee weapons and DEX for ranged weapons.

      i would argue even with dex mod its not great for a legendary, but the permadeath and once a day disintegrate is really good, but i would still classify it as a vary rare in terms of effects. keep in mind though that Legendary is about rarity, not always power. The Sun Sword in Curse of Strahd is considered a legendary item because there is only 1 of it in the setting, ability wise its a rare item.

    These are very cool but they are too high rarity most games I have seen never get legendary items and maybe close to the end the party gets a couple very rares it's mostly uncommon items and a few rare items for most of the campaign so unless you run a dragon-themed campaign or a high-level oneshot most of these will never be seen. This is ironic since they keep saying most games go to about level 6 but they keep adding high rarity stuff.

    I am rather disappoint at the nerf on the Dragonlance itself. If you've seen the 1e stats for it, a 3d6 force damage is nothing. Against a Dragon, a footman's Dragonlance does damage equal to the welder's hit points. ie a fighter with 49 hp does 49 points of damage.
    A mounted Dragonlance does damage equal to the welder and the dragon he is mounted on, ie 40hp fighter and 100 HP dragon equals 140 points of damage.
    If you want the full stats and bonuses for the lesser and greater versions, let me know and I will type them out, of take a photo and send to you.
    These stats for 5e are a joke, especially considering dragons now have 3-4x the HP they did in 1e.
