Does the rare magic item have to be a weapon?
no, it does not have to be a weaponMaJunior says:
If I needed a Common magic item, can I simply buy it? Obvious follow up: If yes, how much? (Ruby of the War Mage is what I'm looking at.)
I plan on supplying you guys with some potions, but the gold was intended for mundane items, not magic. That said, if you need 1 common magic item, we'll just say you have it.
Speaking of magic items... how do we feel about these?
Uncommon: Adamantine Plate Mail
* Assuming I still pay the 2,000gp for the armor, and the "adamantine" part is covered by the magic item entry.
You don't need to pay the 2000 gold, it is a magic item so the whole cost is covered by the items you get. that said, not sure if you'll even be able to spend the 6000 gold on mundane things. Just what the DMG recommended.
Uncommon: Cloak of Protection

Rare: Crystal Blade

I might have missed it, but how did you want to do HPs each level after the first?
I didn't say, but let's do fixed so no one gets screwed overGreyWord says:
1. wizard casting mage armor or other out of combat spells will never get spell slots back
there is time pressure, so no long rests in this one-shot
2. wizard can't use arcane recovery since there are no short rest
when a battle ends, anything that triggers on a short rest is triggered, so you can use arcane recovery at the end of 1 combat in the one-shot
3. druid who use wild shape out of combat will not get use restored until after any combat
correct, they will regain 1 use of wild shape at the end of each combat
