Of course I would typo that.

since asked twice, I added the specific example — rollback if that changes the intent.

But that get's well beyond item assessment and into DM/Campaign issues that vary so much it's hard to pin down. | |

| Dec 7, 2021 at 0:49 | comment | added | KorvinStarmast | @Mołot A core reason for posting this question is to look for munchkinproofing, which is what my concern is at the current rarity estimate of uncommon - not to get wrapped around the axle regarding a common term. One of the questions further up asked "how common is this in the game world" and that's a very good question, and one that I do not have an answer for yet; there are certain parts of my world were wizards are still hunted, and other places where they are tolerated. Rare may be a better classification, or, region/faction unique, like drow poison and armor in AD&D 1e were. | |

It lets you make it successfully. In our game, it resulted in the paladin making a potion very much like it with slightly different effects. I assume by asking straight for rarity that you are suggesting it is already balanced? No, I am not. Why do you assume that? Why do you think I bothered to post a homebrew review? I think it is broken beyond belief Well, I encountered it in play, and I cannot agree with your opinion. But it was nasty. | |

| Dec 6, 2021 at 14:06 | comment | added | SeriousBri | I assume by asking straight for rarity that you are suggesting it is already balanced? Because finding rarity (itself almost meaningless) on an unbalanced item (which I personally think this is broken beyond belief) is tricky. And does reverse engineering give a formula that can be used to craft the poison, or does it let you actually craft the poison? Also, thinking about rarity, I don't believe it is intended to be a measure of power, but a measure of actual rarity, so how common is this in your world? | |
