Items & Equipment

How to use it

• Starting gear comes from the class package chosen in the character creator.
• Every weapon carried appears under ATTACK; potions and other consumables under ITEM.

Step by step

1. Pick up or buy an item: it goes into the inventory.
2. Weapons can be attacked with at once; the best armor counts toward AC.
3. Use a consumable with ITEM; it leaves the inventory.

Weapons

• A weapon lists its damage dice and type, simple or martial, melee or ranged, its reach or range, and its properties.
• Every weapon carried can be used; there is no equip slot. An unarmed strike is always available.
• Simple weapons: anyone is trained. Martial weapons: Fighters, and Rogues with the rapier, shortsword and longsword.

Weapon Properties Rules Detail

• Finesse: attack and damage use the better of Strength and Dexterity.
• Ranged: attack and damage use Dexterity; beyond normal range the attack has disadvantage, and it can't go past long range.
• Reach: the weapon hits 10 ft away instead of 5 ft.
• Light, heavy, thrown, ammunition, loading and versatile are shown on the weapon but don't change the app's numbers. A versatile weapon attacks with its one-handed damage.

Armor and Shields Rules Detail

• Light armor: its AC + the full Dexterity modifier. Leather armor is 11 + Dexterity.
• Medium armor: its AC + Dexterity, at most +2. Scale mail is 14 + Dexterity (max 2).
• Heavy armor: its AC, no Dexterity. Chain mail is 16.
• Shield: adds its bonus, usually +2.
• Only armor the class is trained with counts. Strength requirements and stealth drawbacks are shown on the armor; the app doesn't change speed or Stealth rolls for them.

Potions and Consumables

• Use a consumable with ITEM, on yourself or someone else. In combat it uses your action.
• A Potion of Healing heals 2d4 + 2. A consumable can list its own healing dice. The player rolls the healing.
• Used items leave the inventory.

Tools

• Thieves' Tools are standard picks for locks and traps. Fine Thieves' Tools add +2 to pick locks; a bent wire is an improvised tool (−2).
• Carrying tools the class is trained with adds the proficiency bonus to their rolls.

Money

• Four coins: copper (cp), silver (sp), gold (gp) and platinum (pp).
• 10 cp = 1 sp, 10 sp = 1 gp, 10 gp = 1 pp. Prices are in gold.
• Platinum can be spent but is never given as change.

Buying, Selling and Haggling Rules Detail

• A merchant's mood changes prices: friendly −10%, neutral +0%, unfriendly +10%, hostile +50%.
• Haggling is a Persuasion check, DC 15 unless the store sets another. Success: 10% off. Natural 20: 20% off. Natural 1: prices go up 10% and the merchant stops bargaining.
• Selling: the store pays its share of the item's value, rounded down.
• Nobody can buy what they can't pay for.
