📋 About This Mod

IMPORTANT: You must complete a long rest with the items equipped once reaching the appropriate levels to gain access to the majority of the effects. If the item is unequipped the effects will be lost and require another long rest to reactivate.

This mod adds a collection of the Vestiges of Divergence legendary items from Critical Role. All items can be found in the tutorial chest on the nautiloid, or through a mod that allows summoning that chest.

Also check out my Arms of the Betrayers!

The World Loot add-on also places the items in locations around Act 1, listed at the bottom of the description.

Note: When an item is found on a character with equipment, it is equipped to that enemy and they will be able to use its effects in combat. Some base game equipment is unobtainable on this version due to being replaced on the character that originally had it. Some items will not be present unless the mod is enabled when a new game is started.

These items have 4 different power levels based on the level of the character using them:

Level 1+: Effectively non-magical items of their respective types.

Level 4+: Gain access to their Dormant State effects.

Level 7+: Gain access to their Awakened State effects.

Levels 10+: Gain access to their Exalted State effects.

Note: These items were designed with the 5e attunement system in mind, which would limit a character to having at most 3 equipped at a time. I did not implement this restriction, but would generally recommend no more than 1-2 items per character for a more balanced experience.

    Changed Vestiges
    • []Cabal's Ruin - All charges restored on long rest. Note: The first Ruin Absorption reaction is just to show you what spell the enemy is using, in order to get damage resistance you have to decline the first and use the one that says "Damage Resistance"

    • []Fenthras - Oracle shot applies the effect of branding smite rather than allowing the wielder to look through the arrow.

    • []Mythcarver - Multiattack does not give a level of exhaustion.

    • []Spire of Conflux - Reduced total charges since all must be restored on long rest. Replaced Fireball with Shatter in the Dormant state spells, Awakened state now gives Fireball and Ice Storm, Exalted state now gives Conjure Elemental and Chain Lightning.
