Items Without Prices

Items that won’t be priced

Some items are intentionally omitted because their effects are too random, too powerful, economically disruptive, inherently plot-driven, or simply not things their owners would sell.

• Candle of Invocation — lessons learned from earlier editions.

• Deck of Many Things — too random to price usefully.

• Efreeti Bottle, Iron Flask, Ring of Three Wishes, and Luck Blade — access to wishes defeats a stable price.

• Well of Many Worlds — effectively a campaign-level travel device.

• Wand of Wonder, Helm of Brilliance, and Bag of Beans — too random to price usefully.

• Ring of Djinni Summoning — combines too many gamechanging effects to plausibly appear for sale.

• Bag of Tricks — creating permanent living creatures has extreme economic consequences.

• Tome of the Stilled Tongue — an owner would not plausibly sell it.

• Manuals and tomes that grant +2 to an ability — better treated as party-wide advancement rewards.

• Belts and Potions of Giant Strength — break bounded accuracy.

• Rod of Resurrection — better treated as a plot device.

• Staff of the Magi — too powerful for ordinary sale.

• Manual of Golems — a blueprint rather than an item; price it according to the campaign’s recipe rules.

• Cursed items — excluded from ordinary pricing.
