You also should be aware of character tiers. Legendary If you ever cheapen your game so far as to make available one of these mighty and possibly unique items for mere cash, price it at over 50,000 gp Very Rare If ever sold, you can expect Very Rare (and usually very powerful) items to change hands for 5,000-50,000 gp. Rare If ever sold, Rare (and generally powerful) items are likely to be priced at 500-5,000 gp. If you do find one for sale, for example at a private auction or a spellcasters’ institution, it is likely to cost 100-500 gp. Uncommon These somewhat more potent items are not routinely available for sale, but still are not that rare overall. They are typically priced at 50-100 gold pieces (gp). The rarity tiers are presented on DMG p135 but for reference:Ĭommon These items, with fairly minor powers, are in most worlds actually available for sale from specialist suppliers like alchemists, herbalists and spellcasters. This corresponds fairly closely with item power, so that the least rare items are the least powerful, and really powerful items are really rare. The first concept to get your head around is item rarity.

It may help you understand what’s going on when using the loot tables in the DMG, or deciding for yourself what items to place where in your game. And I realized that, although there is information in the Dungeon Master’s Guide (DMG) such as item rarity and function, and tables for randomly generating items found in loot hoards, the thinking behind item design and distribution isn’t very well explained.Īnd I have the sort of mentality that finds patterns in things like this, so I thought it might be useful to explain a few things I’ve picked out. I’ve seen some people in my various DnD Facebook groups confused about magic item distribution in 5e.
