Workshop Week 06 — What kind of item should we make?


Hey Heroes!

Get ready for the next Wednesday Night Elite Workshop poll! I'll be going live tomorrow night, August 4th,  at 7:30 pm EDT (GMT-4). You'll receive an email tomorrow evening with the exclusive Youtube link for you to come watch and participate!

Please vote on a direction below and comment with a general idea of an item you have that would fit the direction you voted for!  There will be a second poll tomorrow featuring up to three of your commented suggestions using the winning direction from the poll today.

We'll figure out the exact mechanics together on stream before (and possibly while) I make the illustration for the most voted on item!

Remember that this will be an official Saddlebag item and will not credit anyone for the ideas generated through this process. Please only bring ideas you're comfortable with sharing to the workshop!

Let's make something!

Wand of Rechanneling Overcharged Essence (requires attunement by a caster): Has x charges. Whenever you kill a creature with a cantrip or spell, you can expend a charge to channel excess damage from the kill to heal yourself or a nearby ally (e.g., your Firebolt deals 15 damage to a creature with 8 hit points, you can expend a charge to heal someone for the excess damage, so 7 hit points), up to the killed creature's maximum hit points (prevents abuse of farming 1HP animals and killing them with cantrips to maximize healing)

A healing musical instrument for bards. A lyre or harp, but that sounds kinda cliche. Maybe a fiddle? Or a harmonica. Or ocarina, or something lol. Doubles additional healing from Song of Rest. Allows use of Bardic Inspiration to heal allies. Lets user cast thematic spells like Calm Emotions by playing the instrument.

A monk only weapon could be cool and something I've not really seen before. Brass Knuckles or a punching knife of some sort I guess.

A shield that allows you to do phalanx maneuvers via planting the shield and having shields magically appear next to you

A support item that allows you to deliver potions/poisons/alchemical concoctions at range. Vaguely like a crossbow that fires syringe-style bolts
