Sentient Amulet (Rare)

See also: Sentient Amulet (Very Rare)

Sentient Amulet is a rare Amulet that allows the wearer to cast  Shatter once per Short Rest (with a drawback) and  Ki Restoration (Lesser) once per Long Rest.

Sun-graced warmth radiates from both the pendant and its chain. Somehow, even a brief glance of it brings a smile to your face.

Notes

• Picking up the amulet triggers a conversation in which the amulet tries to get party member to surrender to a fit of laughter. This is a hint at the curse the amulet bears. Once the conversation is over, the quest ⁠Help the Cursed Monk is received.
• The amulet is voiced by John O'Mahony.
• Wisdom Saving Throws are only required when using this amulet to cast  Shatter. Using the  Ki Restoration (Lesser) ability does not prompt a Wisdom save.
• The default Wisdom Saving Throw for Hysterical is a DC 10. However, after succeeding the Saving Throw at least three times and upon either equipping the amulet or leaving camp (whichever happens first), a special cutscene plays where passing a DC 10 Wisdom Saving Throw to resist the curse is necessary. If failed, the Hysterical DC is increased to 15. If the Wisdom Saving Throw for Hysterical is succeeded a further three times (and then equipping the amulet or leaving camp again), a similar cutscene plays whereby failing a DC 15 Wisdom Saving Throw increases the Hysterical DC to 20. After this, no additional cutscenes will occur.
• Depending on the outcome of the ⁠Help the Spirit of the Amulet quest in Act Three, the party may receive a version of this amulet that is visually identical but missing all of its special properties (UID: UNI_WYR_MonkAmulet_NoGhost / UUID: 14a6da9a-6689-4c70-96a1-d03319ba3278). Alternatively, the player may receive the  Sentient Amulet (Very Rare).
• While the player character carries the Sentient Amulet, the Cursed Monk occasionally makes comments at various locations and after specific interactions.
