Who Is This Book For?This book is for new and experienced players of 5e, theFifth Edition of the world’s greatest fantasy RPG.

Why An Entire Book of ClassSpecific Magic Items?Because that makes them cooler! More exclusive, moreunique, and more memorable. All of our 250 Best MagicItems books are written with love, and with the under-standing that every class needs different things.

What Makes Our Items Special?

Our magic items are designed to bring out the best inevery class and enhance their core competencies. Whodoesn’t want to be a badass version of themselves? Withthe items in this book, we guarantee you can become:

• The Ultimate Fighter

• The Ultimate Rogue

Everybody wants this. So that’s the first way we makeitems better.

The second way we make our magic items special is tocreate items that eliminate the need for larger parties(whether PC or NPC) or wasted levels spent multi-classing. We do this by granting you a portion of thebasic features and functionality of a related class.

In the case of this book, fighters and rogues are themost common adventuring classes, often coming froman urban environment. So it makes sense they shouldhave some skill and power overlap. After all, regardless ofculture or religion, they spend most of their time livingand adventuring in similar terrain and conditions.

We also wanted to make each of the classes in this bookmore attractive, more fun, and more capable of takingthe spotlight. By the time you finish reading this book,you will have a whole new appreciation andunderstanding for the classes in this book!

The third and final way we make our magic item booksamazing is each one has a gimmick. In the case of ourbarbarians, druids, and rangers book, it’s granting beasttraits to wilderness-based characters. With our bards,sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards book, it’s unlockingarcane secrets that make certain items more powerful tocertain classes or subclasses. For our fighters and roguesbook, it’s about granting monster traits and tying itempowers to class features like Cunning Action, ActionSurge, and Second Wind. You get the idea.

We’re thinking outside the box so you don’t have to.

That means you can just play the game without theheadache of wishing your character could do this or that.With MageGate Games, you can!

IntroductionWELCOME TO MAGEGATE GAMES, your one-stop shopfor 5e fantasy fun! Our sourcebooks are designed to befully compatible with the Fifth Edition of the world’sgreatest roleplaying game. With minimal tweaking,they should also work for past editions (especially 3e,3.5e, and 4e), as well as other tabletop roleplayinggames (TTRPG) with similar rules and mechanics.

Who we are: MageGate Games are USA TODAY best-selling author Jackson Dean Chase and Baba AziziTucker, two veteran GMs with over 88 years of gamingbetween us. We’re committed to producing not justtop quality supplements, but top creative supplements.This 250 Best Magic Items series is an example of that,and there’s more to come!

For PlayersApart from roleplaying, what better defines a characterthan their magic items?

• King Arthur and Excalibur

• Elric and Stormbringer

• Frodo and the One Ring

Magic items are a huge part of myth and legend,and integral to modern fantasy. But heroes and villainsrarely begin with magic items. No, they have to workfor them, quest for them, bleed for them. And oncethey have them, they have to keep them!Think about your character. You can only achieve so

much uniqueness with levels, multi-classing, and feats.But with magic items—especially the right magic items, theperfect magic items—anything is possible!That’s why we wrote this book and this series.

Because we saw a need for more creative, out of theordinary magic items in our favorite RPG. Nobodywants a generic item if they can have something clever.

Something cool.Something memorable!

For Game MastersWe’ve included a Magic Item Rarity table that explainsnot only what the different rarities in this book meanin terms of their power levels, but where the items canbe found and who has them.

While some of the magic items we present are finefor random tables of dungeon treasure, many are farbetter than that! They should belong to—or be soughtafter by—your characters’ rivals and villains. Their useshould be a point of pride, and a testimony to the skilland daring of the owner.

For EveryoneRegardless of whether you play high, low, or mediumfantasy, magic items—and the drive to own or denythem to others—can play a major role in your game.They don’t all have to be world-shaking artifacts.Perhaps the items are lost or stolen family heirlooms,sacred relics of a temple, or even a symbol of authorityin a kingdom or organization. Perhaps the items arethe key to unlocking a much larger puzzle.

It’s up to you.What we do know—and can guarantee—is the items

in this book will make your game more fun. They offershocks, surprises, and something fun you and yourgroup will talk about for years to come.And speaking of surprises, we’ll be tying some of

the items from this book into our upcoming adventuremodules, so be on the lookout for them.

And remember…When you enter the MageGate, you open the door

to adventure!

Let the magic begin!

Magic Item RarityONE OF THE THINGS players want most are magicitems. Yet they are the thing GMs worry about handingout. What if the new items make combat too easy?When we were designing magic items for our 5e

gaming supplements and sourcebooks, we felt weshould come up with a consistent system for whatmagic item rarities mean from a design perspective.We did this by defining what kind of powers an item

should have according to its rarity. We then extendedthis to include where each type of item can most oftenbe found—and with whom. We also added an excitingnew category: the unique magic item.This is the table we use to ensure our products stay

consistent. Feel free to adopt or adapt it to your needs.

CommonCommon magic items are suitable for 1st-2nd levelcharacters. They typically do just one minor thing, andnothing beyond a cantrip. They are often referred to as“curios,” “interesting items,” or “oddities.”

Who has them? Noteworthy low level NPCs andrandom loot might have common magic items.

UncommonUncommon magic items are suitable for 3rd to 4thlevel characters. They typically do several decent butrelatively minor things equal to cantrips through 1stlevel spells. If they are weapons or armor, their bonusis +1, and they do little to nothing else.

Who has them? Noteworthy low level NPCs mighthave uncommon magic items. Mid-level NPCs willdefinitely have them.


Noteworthy low level NPCs mighthave uncommon magic items. Mid-level NPCs willdefinitely have them.

Rarity Character Level Spell Level Combat Bonus NPC Owner Random Loot? Value in GP

Common 1st-2nd Cantrip +0 Noteworthy (minor) Yes 100-250

Uncommon 3rd-4th Cantrip-1st +1 Noteworthy (mid-) Yes 251-500

Rare 5th-8th Cantrip-2nd +2 Noteworthy (mid-) Yes 501-5,000

Very Rare 9th + 3rd-4th +3 Noteworthy (high) Yes 5,001-50,000

Unique 7th-10th 3rd-5th +1 to +3 Important No 10,001-50,000

Legendary 11th + 3rd-9th +3 Major No 50,000+

Artifact 17th + 9th +3 Godlike No Priceless

RareRare magic items are suitable for 5th-8th levelcharacters. They typically do several cool things equal tocantrips through 2nd level spells. If they are weapons orarmor, their bonus is +2, and they do little to nothingelse. If their bonus is only +1, then they will have someother decent to cool power(s) on top of their bonus tohit and to damage.

Who has them? Noteworthy mid-level NPCs willdefinitely have them.

Very RareVery rare magic items are suitable for 9th levelcharacters and up. They typically do several cool thingsequal to 3rd to 4th level level spells. If they are weaponsor armor, their bonus is +3, and they do little tonothing else. If their bonus is only +2, then they willhave some other decent to cool power(s) on top of theirbonus to hit and to damage.

Who has them? Noteworthy 9th level and higherNPCs will definitely have them.

UniqueUnique magic items are suitable for 7th-10th levelcharacters. They typically do several cool things equal to3rd to 5th level spells. If they’re weapons or armor,their bonus is +1 to +3, and they will have some othercool power(s) on top of their combat bonus.

Who has them? Unique items are just that: unique.There is only one of this item in existence, and it iseasily identifiable as an important NPC's signature item.Unique items must be won by defeating the currentowner, or they could be the object of a quest to recoverthem. That means unique items are never random loot.

LegendaryLegendary magic items are suitable for 11th levelcharacters and up. They are even stronger in power thanthe strongest unique items, not to mention even olderand more famous. They may or may not be unique.

Who has them? Legendary items are rarely found onhigh level NPCs who are not already major heroes,villains, or rulers in a campaign setting. It could be theobject of a major quest to locate one and defeat (or winover) the legendary NPC or monster who guards it.

What’s their impact? Legendary items tend to affectcampaign settings on a national, fiefdom, or city level.

ArtifactArtifacts are suitable for 17th level characters andbeyond. These are ancient unique items from a longgone age. They are off the charts crazy powerful!

Who has them? Like unique and legendary items,artifacts are never found as random loot. When broughtinto your game, artifacts are the object of the entirecampaign—usually to prevent the godlike villain fromfinding and/or unlocking its power. Once an artifact isrecovered, wars and tragedies follow in its wake.

What’s their impact? Artifacts can affect your entiregame world, or a significant portion of it. Be careful!

These Are Guidelines, Not RulesIt’s your game. These guidelines are what makes senseto us. The primary difference between our definitionsand the DMG is we bumped legendary items down to11th level. We did this because in our 88 combinedyears of gaming, most campaigns never make it that far,so reserving legendary items for 17th level and abovelikely means never using them. Where’s the fun in that?

Disagree? Feel free to make exceptions for everycategory of rarity—whatever fits your game. There’snothing wrong with players or NPCs getting a betteritem at an earlier level if that makes things more fun.

WhatDoes NoteworthyMean?“Noteworthy” is defined as an NPC or location of minor

to major importance in your campaign. This could be a

dungeon, lair, guildhall, palace, etc.

These people and places often create consequences for

the party if they are killed, stolen from, or messed with.

Adventure HooksIF YOU WANT to make magic items special, you need tobuild adventure hooks around them. This doesn’t applyto common or uncommon items; those are fine forrandom loot drops. But once items increase in powerbeyond that, acquiring them should be a challenge.

Eight Interesting Item Hooks (choose or roll 1d8):

1.The item is a lost or stolen family, clan, or tribal

heirloom. Its recovery will increase both the character’s

standing in their family unit as well as among their peers

and in their community.

2.The item was placed by the character’s mentor, patron,

or a tribal elder in a dangerous spot on purpose. Its

recovery is intended as a rite of passage for the

character to attain adulthood or rank or status within

the family, tribe, or organization.

3.The item has been placed as the prize (or part of the

prize) in a contest by a local ruler or organization,

perhaps with a hefty fee and/or tough qualifying test to

gain entry.

4.The characters are hired to retrieve the item for an

interested party (perhaps the rightful owner). The party

is expected to give the item to their employer, but will

receive other items in exchange.

5.The item contains a clue to a larger treasure, perhaps as a

treasure map hidden inside a hollowed-out weapon hilt, or

engraved on the inside of a breastplate or shield, etc.

6.The items are the keys to unlocking some greater force

from its magical prison, such as a celestial, demigod,

elemental, fey, fiend, god, or undead. Or, it could release

the clone of a tyrant or wizard.

7.The ghost of the item’s former owner (who may be related

to the player) contacts them to retrieve it and “restore

their honor.” In return, the player can keep it.

8.The character kills a villainous NPC to gain the item, but is

later mistaken as the villain by the law and also hunted by

the villain’s vengeful master, family, friends, and/or allies.
