The staff of fate could be used with a clockworks amulet.
Not even joking, I absolutely love you going through magic items and giving your thoughts. It's simple but it's my favourite content.
agreed!!
Indeed
True
One cool thing you can do with the Serpent Scale Armor is actually flavor it to be made of actual scales instead of metal, partly because coolness factor, partly so druids can make use of it
Also Serpent's Fang with the Poisoner feat seems good
Gloves of soul catching are definitely overtuned. Giving it daily charges would probably be the best way to balance it out, infinite healing is never a good idea.
Yeah... they can even be used outside of combat to heal to full. I understand that the amount of damage is similar to what some magical weapons offer for each hit, but can't remember any coming to even close to the ridiculous amount of healing you can get from this. Proficiency amount of times to get the healing would still be great with the fact that you get 20 Con on top of the boosted damage.
It would be better if it gave temporary hit points.
@@typoko Well... you'd need to be doing damage to a creature. So it would quickly become "in combat" lol
@@mduckernz Why would you need to hit a creature? You can damage objects if you want to. Adamantine weapons special power is to deal more damage to objects, so why couldn't you just punch them?
yes, but it is ballanced in the way you acquire them:
the gloves are purely theoretical and have never been made, you need silver thread, fine leather, and other material components worth 5000 gold and in other to acquire its magic you need to sacrifice a being of great intellect, a being of strong body and a being of a pure heart in a 5-hour ritual during a full moon which destroys the souls of the "volunteers".
sounds like the origin of an artifact to me. I would add major and minor beneficial and detrimental properties, the sentience of the beings, and a personality change for the user and likely attracting the attention of ... something. this is the type of item that by the end of the campaign becomes indestructible and super cursed.
NETHER SCROLL YES
Between that and the Mythalar from Icewind Dale my Wizard has quite the shopping list
Serpent Scale Armor would also be great for a Druid since it won't be affected by the metal prohibition.
I have a yuan ti pureblood celestial warlock (patron is a coutal) who is going to like that serpent armor.
That's such a good character concept :D
@@cameronpearce5943 we've only done the first session and none of them are familiar with forgotten realms so i gave everyone partial amnesia and a grandmas house scenario with a night hag so they can learn about the realms as they build they're backstories so he doesnt even know who his patron is yet. Turns out one of the creator races (sarruahk) who created the yuan ti had a small civil war in one of their cities and some of them became couatls so it works out perfectly.
Have you seen the Cuatyl themed magic item set by the Griffon's Saddlebag?
@@dannya.2616 No is there a link?
totally stealing that concept
Surprised you didn't mention Druids for that Serpent Scale Armor, since they need unusual materials to wear medium armor stronger than hide.
I'm so happy for that Serpent Scale Armor!!!
I absolutely love the Gloves, monks have always lagged behind the other martials in combat damage but this is exactly the thing they need to keep up with Holy Avenger Paladins or Fighters w/ Vorpal Swords
Although the gloves of soul catching are awesome, I think they are a little too OP for my taste. Maybe letting it deal 2d10 force damage once a turn would make it more bearable IMO
Ehh it’s legendary and there are basically no magic items for unarmed characters. Monks definitely need all the help they can get
@@silvle01 That's fair, I just think that dealing 2d10 while also healing that same amount multiple times per turn is a LOT
I told one of my friends about it who is planning on playing a monk for our second campaign (we still have at minimum half a year left on our current one so idk why the group is already preparing for the second) and he got crazy excited. And then I told him "Dude, if you get this thing then you are getting it at level 17 or something". He then realized that yeah, it is a legendary item that he probably won't be getting at level 3.
@@trikkinikki6843 that's a good point actually. 2d10 damage per hit at that level is pretty good, and maybe not OP, tho I can't help but still feel like being able to heal 2d10 per hit is nuts, specially when you (as a monk) have the potential to make 4 attacks (w/ flurry of blows), that's 8d10 healing per turn if you hit everything
and I'm not even taking into consideration that maybe one of those hits have the chance to be a crit, doubling the damage and healing
Serpentine armor is +2 studded leather (or +3 leather) armor that requires proficiency in medium armor. Pretty good for an uncommon item.
ABSURDLY good for an uncommon item - +2 armor is Very Rare.
@@SkarmoryThePG Maybe we have different ideas of what the words absurdly good means. You still need medium armor proficiency to wear it so I wouldn't place serpentine armor as a very rare item. Maybe rare and at that point uncommon isn't absurdly far off.
@@oOPPHOo Of the four armor-wearing classes which regularly have Dex 20 builds, three already have medium armor proficiency. And as a rogue, spending 1 dex for up to +4 ac via Moderately Armored sounds a rather viable trade. So yes, the proficiency barely matters, and the item is absurdly powerful for an uncommon, belonging rather firmly in Very Rare.
@@SkarmoryThePG Nah, you're just objectively wrong. I didn't even know it was possible to be objectively wrong on something like this yet here we are :P
@@oOPPHOo Please take the time to learn what words mean before using them next ime.
Too bad, 0/10.
Stonky's Rings doesn't gives you extra Stonks
Was waiting for this, I dread having to read through the entire Magic Items section just to get to the few items I might use
Well there is no magic item section in this book. You have to find them in each adventure
@@NerdImmersion Thankfully I use DnD Beyond so the listing is available, but reading through it is uncomfortable for me, and I greatly appreciate you covering this info, which is why you are one of the few DnD RUclipsrs that I have kept the Notification Bell turned on for
In my homebrew supplement I'm working on I have some fun monk items. One is a staff that can extend its reach and do thunder damage and a homage to the Monkey King and Chris Zito's Hanu playable monkey people, and two others are wrappings that work like a Flametongue for Monk Unarmed Strikes and a Legendary Wrappings of The Mummy Lord that let you inflict mummy rot. Thinking of making a subclass too for the Way of The Rotten Fist that's a martial arts style for the undead (Kung Fu Lich anybody?)
The Orcus Figurine works great with a Reborn Necromancer. Because you can choose to be undead. Although, the wraith wanting to kill your party is not optimal.
This magical helm makes me want to play the Mandalorian based character who doesn't remove his helmet as a part of his oath
Special material armours/weapons should totally be a separate category
Staff of Fate +divination wizard = strong
Sadly it's not a saving throw, attack roll, or ability check, so no.
Statue of orcust could be useful for a dhampir or the frankenstein type lineage in the new Ravenloft book.
My druid is drooling over that armor.
How do the Gloves of Soul Catching work with Way of the Astral Self? I’m reading it as the force damage done by your astral arms is also converted to healing which definitely seems powerful.
Somehow fitting that the Way of the Astral Self benefits more from the Gloves of Soul Catching. Not balanced by any stretch, but it's a thematically appropriate synergy.
@@SybilantSquid Yeah, it makes sense that way, but I still wanted to double check.
16:07 divination Wizards laugh at this mechanic
That Staff of Fate is something I absolutely love, you have to expend that last charge and roll the dice to recharge it essentially. Well named in retrospect
thanks for alawys giving us great coverage so soon
You left off druid for the armor, you know the one that got boned with metal armor allergy.
I love the gloves, and agree that they would be perfect for a monk. You get so much survivability from this, another 3-4 bonus to constitution can really stack those hit points. Also the healing gives you so much staying power, as a high level monk you could concievable heal 8d10 a round for a single ki point as you mentioned, with this you could out-heal *fireballs* so long as you have a target. Dont have a face to punch? no problem, just have a few angry rats on standby, or hit a nearby rock (doesnt say you have to hit a creature). And of course I think the rogue-monk hybrids will enjoy the advantage thing for crit-fishing.
It's not any special statistical benefit, but I do feel the need to mention "Martial Attack Techniques" as what is technically a magic item that you skipped over here, just because the imagery of it amuses me- it's a book connected to a chain, which functions as a +1 flail (page 24, gained by defeating the chained library).
No lie, that wallet would make a good DnD magic item, too.
Those soul-catching gloves are OP as fuck!
Definitely like the serpent scale mail. It kind of reminds me of the Nimbleness armor property from 3.5's Magic Item Compendium. It's absolutely something I love seeing. However, the fact that it's only uncommon is a little flustering considering the sword that does 1d10 poison damage is rare. That seems really off by comparison.
This is literally +2 studded leather that requires medium armor proficiency. That's Very Rare level.
@@SkarmoryThePG Not exactly, anyone can get the bonus from +2 Studded Leather but they need at least 16 DEX to benefit from the SSM. It should at least be a Rare though.
@@lucasgillett4321 If they have 14 dex, the +2 studded leather is STILL exactly equivalent to the serpent scale. Or, in fact, nonmagical scale, in terms of AC.
@@SkarmoryThePG But then, as you say, it's no benefit over regular Scale Mail unless they invest in more DEX. It's as good as +2 Studded Leather for DEX based Fighters and Rangers sure, but not so much for a Druid or Cleric, and only for Rogues if they take a feat or multiclass to get medium armour proficiency. That's enough caveats for it to just be Rare IMO.
@@lucasgillett4321 ....it's exactly as good as a +2 studded leather for anybody who cares about a +2 studded leather, with the sole exception of rogues. You can't say it's not as strong as item X because it's not good for people who don't want item X!
if you have the clockwork amulet the staff of fate can be refreshed with no problem
An excellent point and a great use for a common trinket!
This doesn't work RAW. The Clockwork Amulet makes an ATTACK ROLL a 10, not the special roll that you make for expending the last charge. I really wish that weren't the case because that would have been a neat interraction.
I actually like the staff of fate mechanic and feel every staff should have that. Maybe the chance to regain should be higher though.
Start 4:00
I really enjoy the claw tattoo from Tasha's for a Monk. +1 to hit, once per day 15ft reach. Works out really well.
definitely want to give my swashbuckler/BM/gloomstalker the serpent scale mail and the helm.
cheers for the new video Ted kinda had a bad day and your videos really help. Currently watching Curse of Strahd season 2 before watching the Evrand series
I went through the book yesterday and didn't notice most of these. Really weird how the magic item pages are listed here, but not in the actual book.
Support Divination Wizard would love that +3 Quarterstaff
Only comment have about the Orcus figurine is they seem to be moving towards races being things such as undead, so it could be used by a necromancer that is one of those races (still playtest of course) but even then your allies cant revivify if your around so itd be weird.
The Gloves of Soul Catching on a Champion Fighter Half-Orc with the Unarmed Fighting Style and the Crusher Feat.
At 18th Level, they regenerate hp at the start of every turn, and with the Gloves and Action Surge you will almost never die.
With a 2 level dip into a Monk for Flurry of Blows.
I'm currently playing a Blood Hunter with a Dex of 18, who uses a Double-Bladed Scimitar, and has the Revenant Blade feat.
That Serpent Scale Mail sounds perfect! By level 4 when I max my Dex, i would have an AC of 20 with this armor. 19 from the armor +1 from Revenant Blade.
Staff of Fate is amazing if you have a Diviner Wizard. If you DM let's you anyways, since it isn't a saving throw.
Although to be fair, I don't understand why it can't still be +3 magic staff once the charges are used up, make it a sister item to the luck blade in that regard.
Serpent Scale Mail does apply stealth disadvantage. It said in the notes for it. If you equip it on your character sheet the app will apply it.
That's strange since I'm looking at the book right now and it says that Serpents Scale mail does NOT impose disadvantage on dexterity(stealth) checks. I'm looking at the book now. If it shows up on the app find some way to cancel that out as it was not supposed to be there. RAW
Regarding the last (helm) item: Sleeping in a helm will suck. And in XGE are rules for sleeping in armor and the penalties
Your videos are always good and informative. Keep it up >^
Some good new magic items
Doesn’t seem to be any common magic items for Artificers to Infuse. Unfortunate.
Yup, that was my biggest disappointment.
In my games there is no way to just get a magic item that I want so anything I cant get through artificer I will basically never get.
I'm playing a monk in my weekly game and came to this video for the gloves of soul catching but serpent scale armor would be absolutely brilliant for one of our party members he's a Hexblade Warlock/Arcane Trickster Rogue so medium armor that doesn't impose disadvantage on stealth and adds full dex to AC would be insane for him, definitely bringing that to his attention.
Would the Gloves of Soul catching work on a moondruid? So heal every attack you make in your form :p also bumping your con of the animalform..
Unfortunately, “bite,” “claw,” and that type of attack usually count as natural weapons, not unarmed strikes :/
@@andrewduncan2258 awe maan!! :( I call rule of cool!! haha :p would be totally awesome tho hihi
Some nice items.
Imagine those gloves or soul snaring on a fighter with the new fist fighting style 3 attacks 2 with advantage and a action surge on top that’s amazing or just do an extra 2d10 on each so that’s a total of 6d8 and 12d10 if they all hit
He talks about D&D supplements like they are Pokémon! 😂😂😂😎
"... available out in the wild and on the D&Dbeyond"
I can just picture it now,
"A wild Curse of Straud spears" 😂😎🙈
With that helm i assume game mechanics wise you would just ignore the unconscious condition so it would be just like you were awake.
Okay, so I love seeing monk stuff, and I'll take whatever I can get...but holy shit, Gloves of Soul Catching sound _broken as hell._
Alright! Thanks ⭐️
The serpent scale armor is cool, but I feel like the rarity is off. It's basically +2 studded leather armor, which is very rare. I get the argument that it's sort of not a magic item, but it still doesn't feel right to me.
Resurrection magic on a creature that was an undead returns the undead to life as an undead.
Could be useful for a Dhampir character possibly
That candlekeep doesn't have a section at the end of the book where you can find all the items and monsters, forcing you to go through the whole book to find everything, is such shit design.
Yes like how they mixed the tattoes and magic items in Tasha's. They pad out their books with rubbish and yet wont make simple useful tables to display things.
@@hopefulmayhem5744 well then its a bad decision..
You are a hero.
Serpent Scale Armour is far more for those who are in light armour as they are far more likely to already have a Dex bonus higher than +2, if you start the game with medium armour it would be a waste to have more than +2 dex.
Would the gloves of soul catching trigger on each hit cause it only says after making a successful strike and doesn’t state a limit? Or am I just confusing something
They would, yes.
@@klay3841 ok thank you that’s crazy
upvoted for thumbnail & video!
Snake scale armor is perfect for druids.
Gloves of Soul Catching and Bloodfury tattoo on a monk?
Nice wallet looks like when my TILE dies I know what I'm getting
100 views in 3 minutes. Let’s go!!!!
To all the DMs who never thought of homebrewing a magic item similar to the Gloves of Soul Catching: I seriously hate you.
The Serpent’s Scale armor is basically identical to studded leather +2, which is a very rare item, except in this case you need medium armor proficiency to access it.
can you not apply a + to the serpent scale?
Raw, no. It is its own magic item and therefore if it does not list the bonus you cannot give it one, same with myrhril and adamantine. Of course, a dm can chose to ignore that and start throwing around +3 adamantine plate armor and things like that
That armor is great, but kinda sucks if you made a DEX based fighter built around medium armor master feat. Makes the feat garbage. Does make the moderately armored feat amazing for rogues though.
I dont know the Figurine of Orcus sounds useful if your player character is a Dhampir or a Reborn ;-p
We all agree that in TMNT 2: secret of the ooze that the name of the company responsible was T.G.R.I not T.C.R.I right? How'd the replica canister get it wrong?
TCRI is the comics accurate name
Based on the wording the Gloves of soul catching don't get affected by crits since the damage happens after the strike and not as part of the damage you deal with your hit so it can only deal 2d10 still very strong but I'm guessing we will start to see stronger legendary items and these wont be too crazy compared to other new ones(and you never really see legendaries anyway unless you do a high level oneshot or are in high tier AL)
Whats going on Ted. Glósóli from the comment section here. Its the 16. of march. And i wanted to say thanks for these vids :)
Another of those, great magic items, that hasn't been created... Like the vest or arch magi in the magic item Compendium... Guess the gloves of soul catching are too good to be true...
How is the Staff of Fate not legendary?
If ur an artificer if u have guidance and bardic inspiration expertise with arcana +5 mod in in + another 5 from flaah of genius u will automatically succed the arcana check for the nether scroll
Is serpentine armor wearable by druid?
It’s medium armor so yes. It is also not metal if you’re worried about that.
@@Boundless-Boredom well that's the thing. The description in dndbeyond use the description of basic scale mail so metal... The question is in the adventure is it made of serpent scale or made to look like serpent scale and so metal...
I would say so because it says it's literally made of scales
It should be. Apparently it's made of fish scales, so it wouldn't be any different than dragonhide armor.
As far as I know, druids can wear metal, only if the DM accepts that the part with no armour is fluff.
Imagine the gloves with the crusher feat on a monk... woolad.
Serpent scale mail is basically just +2 studded leather that requires medium armor proficiency. Should be higher then uncommon. Rare at least if not very rare.
Serpent Scale Mail should definitely be Very Rare. That's a MASSIVE improvement on normal scale mail (16AC disadvantage on stealth) giving your rogue, ranger, etc effectively fighter/paladin level AC.
My cleric at level 8 with 40 hp got very excited when he saw those gloves of soul catching...
Serpent Scale Mail allows you to get 19 AC as a full DEX fighter? That shouldn't be Uncommon rarity lmfao. It's effectively +2 Studded Leather. (It can't be worn by classes who lack Medium Armor prof I guess so the Rogue won't immediately gain access to it, but still.)
Well now you spoiled me how could you!!! Jk
Staff Of fate more like staff of garbage, seriously?! very rare?? i woudnt buy it for rare rarity
Well a +3 quarterstaff is very rare. This is a +3 quarterstaff with additional benefits
what the hell is 'unknown rarity'?! we are outside viewers, we should have absolute information! is gold rare, is it worth anything? oh, i don‘t know, no idea how rare it is. that is one stupid concept! if it is unique, just say so! otherwise, tell me the rarity.
I don't think that's there to obscure it. I think its a case where DnDBeyond's staff don't know what rarity to put them in, because there's none listed in the book for them.
