⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VERIFIED REVIEW FOR 250 BEST MAGIC ITEMS BOOK 5 — B. Berry (Amazon Customer)

"Plenty of versatility in this book, and it provides a wide scope of items. Several of the items are unique and powerful enough to be goals for quests for players, or major plot points. Tips for how to introduce such items are included at the beginning of the book, like in the other previous books.

The instructions for creating your own trinkets or 'weird weapons' is certainly a welcome bonus. This was a unique and new edition to this book.

Definitely a great selection of items for your campaign for characters of all types. This book provides exactly what it says, and plenty more."

What to Buy Next:

• 250 Best Magic Items: Harvested, Ritual, and Team-Based Items (5e)

Why This Book?

• You complete your coverage of magic items for any character class with mid- to high-level items.
• Items harvested from monster parts (blood, brains, hearts, etc.) are a fun (but grisly) adventure hook. We provide complete harvesting rules you can use at any level.
• Unique items that require the owner to perform a major ritual in order to attune to the item. These are perfect adventure hooks for characters and powerful NPCs. Each item comes with its own custom ritual, but we also give you random ritual adventure hook tables.
• Team-based items such as self-replicating weapons, coordinated battle gear, or battle standards that aid the attuned owner and nearby allies.
