Equipment
Equipment are important items for the player’s adventure. They can be weapons that deal damage to enemies, or armor for protection from them. They can also give interesting bonuses to the player’s characters such as extra spells, special enchantments, and so on.
You can find detailed description for each type of equipment below.
Sets
Weapons
Weapons serve the purpose of dealing damage to various things, ranging from doors and crates to monsters and NPCs.
There are a number of ways to categorize items:
- Melee or Ranged
- Martial or Simple
- One-handed, Two-handed, or Versatile
Each weapon deals a specific type of physical damage. The damage types are:
- Blunt
- Slashing
- Piercing
In addition, weapons can have various special properties, though not all are implemented in the game as of now:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Ammunition | (Not implemented.) You need ammunition to be able to attack. You can regain half of your spent ammunition after a battle by spending one minute to search the area. |
| Finesse | When making an attack, you can choose between Strength and Dexterity for the attack and damage rolls (you must use the same choice for both). |
| Heavy | (Not implemented.) Small creatures have Disadvantage on attack rolls. |
| Light | Can be wielded in your off-hand as a secondary weapon. |
| Loading | (Not implemented.) You can only make one attack per turn with this weapon, be it through an action, bonus action, or reaction. |
| Range | Every ranged weapon has a normal range and a long range. Creatures that are beyond normal range but within long range can be attacked, albeit with Disadvantage. Creatures outside of long range cannot be attacked. |
| Reach | A melee weapon with this property can be used to attack enemies up to 10ft away, instead of the regular 5ft. |
| Special | Various special rules apply to the weapon, explained in its description. |
| Thrown | A weapon with this property can be thrown for a ranged attack, even if it's normally melee. This combines with the Finesse property. For example, if you throw a Handaxe, you use Strength, but if you throw a Dagger, you can choose Dexterity instead. |
| Two-handed | Indicates that this is a two-handed weapon. It can only be used with both hands. |
| Versatile | Indicates that this is a versatile weapon. It can be used with one hand or both hands. Typically, using a versatile weapon with both hands offers a higher maximum damage. |
| Improvised | Indicates that this is an object not designed to be a weapon, but can be used as such anyway. |
| Silvered | (Not implemented.) Some monsters are immune or resistant to nonmagical weapons, but susceptible to silver weapons. |

Armor, Clothing and Shields
Armor
Armor offers the character an improved base armor Armor Class to decrease the chance of being hit. When wearing Armor, your Armor Class becomes that of the piece of Armor you're wearing. In other words, it overrides your base Armor Class, before bonuses from Dexterity, Shields, spell effects, etc. are applied.
There are three types of armor:
Clothing
Clothing provides no additional protection against damage. Caster classes that have no Armor Proficiency such as Sorcerer and Wizard will wear Clothings to be able of Spellcasting (in and out of combat).
You can obtain Light, Medium, or Heavy Armor Proficiency by taking the appropriate feat at level 4.
