Other common magic items: Xanathar’s Guide has a bunch of common magic items, all weak enough that they probably shouldn’t require a special ingredient to make.Īdamantine armor: Adamantine, which is often found in azer mines.Īmmunition +1: Magic arrows can be fletched with griffin, hippogriff, pegasus, or peryton pinions. But if you harvest some giant octopus or squid ink, I’d let you make scrolls at a discount. Spell scroll: As per the rules, spell scrolls can be made without exotic ingredients. But it might be fun to seed the world with exotic healing herbs, which reduce the cost of creating healing potions. Potion of healing: As per the rules, potions of healing (all types) can be created without exotic ingredients. By the standard rules it’s a bad deal to make consumable magic items (they cost half the price of a permanent item of similar rarity) so I say that it’s full price to make them but you get 2d4 of the item.Each monster provides exactly one magical ingredient, except legendary monsters, which provide 2d4.(Many D&D campaigns have a character who likes to collect monster trophies.) If a monster trophy was ever required for a recipe, we assumed the characters had scavenged the right piece of the monster: no “Oh no, I collected the beak, but it turns out we need toes.” One player kept a list of exotic monsters killed. In my game, characters stockpiled ingredients against future need. ![]() Even though a griffin is only CR 2, it’s clearly the right monstrous guardian. For instance, the Bronze Griffin Figurine of Wondrous Power is a rare item, usually requiring a CR 9+ guardian. In a few cases, when it’s thematically appropriate, a too-low-CR monster can provide an ingredient.
