  • In this video we'll be going over the best common magic items, which is the lowest rarity of magic items in the game, a rarity that makes them pretty easy to get a hold of in most campaigns, and is usually relegated to the more useless or flavorful items.

    My favorite common magic item is the Unbreakable Arrow.
    With the unbreakable arrow you have a dollar store Unmovable Rod. Any Huge, Complex, Deadly Trap becomes a mere inconvenience by jamming the Unbreakable Arrow into the moving mechanism, it's a true monkey wrench if used right.
    Yes, a cheap dagger or climbing pitons can do that too. However they are breakable and with the arrow, the mechanism will break before the arrow does. One Unbreakable Arrow could save you from being crushed in a compacting room/hallway, and two could be used to help your character climb most surfaces.

      @@almisamiRAW is a little flakey here I'd say. "When you make an attack roll while wearing the amulet, you can forgo rolling the d20 to get a 10 on the die." - it says 'the d20' not 'the d20s', so a DM could likely rule it could only be used outside of advantage/disadvantage or (what I would do) allow the player to forgo rolling 'the d20' they are targeting with this effect and then still roll the other one and take the result as appropriate.

      ​@@paperhatboy Nope, completely disagree. It doesnt say it replaces one roll of the d20. It says "When you make an attack roll...you can forgo rolling the d20..." Meaning that for that attack roll you dont roll the d20. If it replaced a single roll of the die it would specify with language like "you can forgo one roll of the d20 to get a 10 the die". But the language is specific in that it tells you not to roll the d20 die when making an attack, so for that attack you forgo rolling the die at all and the guaranteed result of the die would be 10 whether it's rolling for disadvantage or advantage. Both theoretical rolls would be 10 so the attack roll result is a 10

    I like the spellwrought, but I made it act more like the other tattoos. I put tattoo artists in my world, and some can apply higher level spells than others, the cost of the application is higher as well because it's permanent, but if you bring buddy boy a spell scroll, you get a bit off. What tattoo artist can apply which tattoos depends entirely on the artist's INT.... And by 3rd level, you're already paying like 1k gp for a single tattoo (but come on, it's a free third level spell), granted the artist you're going to can actually apply it. And if they can't, well, you just gotta travel around to find one who can, and the world is notoriously unsafe for travellers, to the point where the main trading company hires mercenaries to guide their caravans because of the monsters that roam everywhere, and adventurers are almost unheard of bc it's so damn easy to just die.

    - Breathing bubble = like Cap of Water Breathing but 1 hour duration and a common item
    - Horn of Silent Alarm = Very useful for if your party is split up and want to remain stealthy
    - Pole of Collapsing = Before you get a Bag of Holding one of the most awkward thing to carry is a 10ft pole.
    - Willowshade Oil = not even a magic item but costs as much as a common magic item, this reverses Petrification!
    I'd put Spell Scrolls of Cantrip and Level 1 variety on this list as those levels are common and have no failure chance, if you REALLY need to cast Mending just once to close a broken chain link to close a door then it can be annoying if you roll low on your arcana check. Also scrolls don't take up an attunement slot. Hat of Wizardry can be nice to keep in your Bag of Holding to use if you're ever really stuck on a puzzle and need ONE cantrip you never through you'd need like to Freeze a 5ft cube of water.
    Spellwrought Tattoos are great but they are more expensive, XGE says that a Cantrip Scroll is only 15GP to craft, the rules for making the "special needle" for creating Spellwrought tattoo (of Cantrip or Lv1 Spell) on the hero's skin is 50GP. They are disproportionately useful for non-casters and according to the rules are the same cost to create whether Lv1 spell or Cantrip. Cantrip scrolls are fantastic for casters as they are SO CHEAP.

    The DMG describes how new Common magic items that cast a first level spell once per day can be easily crafted. So an Amulet of Cure Wounds used by a Life Cleric would basically be a Common Healing potion usable once every day. A Whistle to Find Familiar would allow every party member to eventually summon a Familiar. A robe of Feather Falling would work once every day without being consumed. Many such Common items are possible.

    @DracoCordraconis Před 3 lety +3

    7:58 - I'm still new to DnD, but if we go by RAW, there is a slight detail we need to consider: The Hat of Wizardry counts as a Spellcasting Focus, eliminating the need for material components, but it does not eliminate the need for any somatic components to be performed with a free hand. RAW says you can use the same hand you're holding the material components for the somatic component as well - so a spellcasting focus which is also a weapon (e.g. a staff, a weapon with a Ruby of the Warmage 8:54 ) would classify as such, since the focus essentially is your material components - but technically doesn't apply to a hat worn on your head. So if you're holding a non-spellcasting focus weapon and/or shield in both of your hands, you'd still need the War Caster Feat ( 8:44 ) in order to fulfill any somatic components of a spell.
    Now, Rule of Cool (aka. most DMs) would allow it to work anyway, probably, as logically you're "holding" your focus with your head and can still make the required hand gestures with a hand where you're holding something different rather than the focus itself, but RAW would constitute the situation like this, but correct me if I'm reading this wrong, please.

    • @chesster415
      @chesster415 Před 2 lety

      Yep, you're absolutely right. It just says you can use it as a spellcasting focus, it doesn't override the requirement to have a free hand to access material components or your focus. If that worked casters would all just strap wands to their heads like unicorn horns to keep their hands free.

  • @TheNanoNinja
    @TheNanoNinja Před rokem +1

    I would imagine with the Hat of Wizardry, that using it would still require the caster to use their hands. In the description it doesn't say either way that it uses hands or not. Think about Presto from the 80's D&D Cartoon series. That is how I would rule it as a DM.

    The campaigns I'm in are low gold campaigns... so single use items (like potion of healing) aren't appealing since they usually just heal the damage we just took. Finding them is great, but buying them is usually scrapping together enough to get a healing potion.

    Ok
    1 Get all of the stone focus types. Cut them into small beads. Find some magical tread. make necklace focus of protection /ward. Affect reduce all damage types by 1d4 on reaction. once per day can reflect one spell. roll to see where it sent.
    2 seem really useful for some crazy things. spelljammers must be packed with them.
    3 note to DMs: watch what kind of plant you let them put into the pot. may be game breaking. free food or walking trap, Poison / thorny/ man eating
    plants may be a pain.
    4 limit how many they can get or get ready for some purple man action
    5 You shall not pass
    6 Some where in D&D. Some one is covered head to toe in them.

    @franksmedley8619 Před 5 měsíci

    Hello.
    The Pot of Awakening: A good use of this item is to grow the plant and then transplant it to where it can be useful. Should I gain this item, I would plant the plant in a garden area, to give warning(s) about those not allowed into the area, entering the garden area. Sort of like an alarm spell, but without the ability to be detected by a magic spell of detecting magics. Another use might be to plant the awakened plant near a watch tower, to alert those in the tower of creatures or people attempting to sneak by or into a secured area.
    The Moon Touched Sword is very useful at low levels. Especially for those without Darkvision. My Centaur has one, and has modified his armor to enable him to slip the sword through a molded slot in the lower portion of his upper torso's armor, and thus 'hang' the sword in front of his lower chest. This gives light to see by, and frees up his hands to use his Bow efficiently.
    Potion of Healing: Yes, a good item for party members to have. Especially at lower levels, when damage can push them down to almost dying. A Ranger with high stats can find enough ingredients using Survival Skill to allow certain party members, like an Artificer, to 'brew up' simple Healing Potions. And so, buying several empty potion vials can be a very good idea when a party sets out on an adventure. Between the Ranger and Artificer, potions can be brewed up as the party travels to the adventure area. Thus giving the party a chance to quickly heal from damage taken in encounters. Also of note is that the basic Healing Potion, 2d4+2 would normally cost the party 50 GP each, which might be 'out of their price range'. Either forcing the party to spend on healing potions, or better gear that they could use during adventuring, such as rope, twine, tools, tents, etc. So, the Ranger-Artificer combo is very useful to low level parties, and lowers the 'cost of business'.

      As written, you forgo the d20 and just use 10 instead. You'd still have disadvantage but it would only affect things like sneak attack that care if it exists, it can't change the outcome. Compared to things like a divination wizard's Portent or halfling's Lucky feature that replace or reroll a die, where disadvantage would cause you to roll two dice and then you can only reroll or replace one.

    The Orb of Shielding is even more useful than you say here, as it can be used freely by any class, which is _doubly_ useful for multiclassing casters, as this means they can use it to freely cast _all_ their spells.
    To give an example, a Sorcerer/Bard/Paladin would normally be forced to use _three_ different foci (or forgo foci entirely and use a Component Pouch).
    It _also_ allows half-casters that normally can't use a focus at all to use one, as it never specifies that you need to be able to use a specific focus type.
    However, this _is_ a property that's shared between all magic Foci that don't specify a specific class, from what I've seen (both the Ruby Weave Gem and Dragon-Touched Focus from the recently-released Fizban's Treasury of Dragons also have this property, for example, as does the Ruby of the Warmage).
