Chapter 5: Treasure Trove

Important Items

Source GM Core pg. 223 2.0
Some magical items in the game are an important part of the game's progression, so ensure your players are getting enough of the following items.
  • Fundamental runes. Potency runes for weapons and armor, resilient runes for armor, reinforcing runes for shields, and striking runes for weapons are all important to ensure characters have the attacks, damage, and defenses suited to their level. Read more about these runes starting on page 225.
  • Skill items. Players seeking true mastery of a skill will be happy to get items that give bonuses to that skill. These are mostly in the categories of held items (pages 273–283) and worn items (pages 284–297).
  • Spellcaster items. A staff is as important to a spellcaster as a magic sword is to a fighter. Learn more about staves on page 278. Scrolls and wands (pages 262 and 282) provide extra spells in a more limited capacity.
  • Weapon alternatives. Characters using unarmed attacks need handwraps of mighty blows (page 290) or similar items instead of weapon runes.
  • Healing potions. Keep them alive on page 259!
