Now, this is all well and good, but the naming is kind of weird isn’t it? We can change the name of the weapon into something that will make more sense in game.
We only have a +4 to hit and the damage is a measly 1d4+1 Step 8 (optional) Finnally, we can see this is different from our club which uses strength instead. Our new weapon is the same, except it also deals 1d6 necrotic damage. The spell Shillelagh indicates we should see +7 to hit and the attack should deal 1d8+4 bludgeoning damage. We can also see that everything has been applied correctly. Once it’s equipped it will show up under attack along with everything else. Now go to the equipment tab of your character sheet and make sure you have the weapon equipped. Add the weapon to your character sheet when it shows up. I’ve had it take several hours for items to show up after I’ve created them. Depending on how unique of a name you gave it, it should pop-up pretty quick. Next start type in the name that you gave to your new item. The reason is our new item is a non-magical flail and druids are not proficient with flails. You will want to make sure that all of these boxes are un-checked. Then click on the option that says “Add Items” Next you’ll need to navigate to the Equipment tab.
So, go to the home tab of your character and make sure “Homebrew Content” is turned on Now that we’ve created the item we need to add it to our character. Hit save changes one more time and your item is now complete. Once you put in all of the modifiers you should see something like this. So we will add this property to the weapon. A club is a light weapon, just for completeness we will go ahead and add this weapon property back in.įinally, the ability Symbiotic Entity makes our weapon deal an extra d6 necrotic damage on a hit. Since we have a druid I’ve applied wisdom instead of strength. Next we are supposed to use our casting stat instead of strength for hit and damage.
Hit save once you’ve added all of the necessary details for each modifier. This is because druids do not normally have proficiency with flails. First we need to apply our proficiency bonus to attacks. We need to add some modifiers to the weapon so that everything is accounted for correctly. Once you’ve selected your files click the “save changes” button (the images you’ve selected will not show until after you’ve hit save). If you don’t upload anything then a generic sword icon gets displayed at the top and no image is displayed for the bottom. The avatar image is displayed at the top and the Large Avatar image is displayed at the bottom.

If we want to add a custom picture then click on the plus sign next to “Additional Information”Īnd click on the choose file buttons to upload your desired images. This will allow us to fill out the rest of the details for the weapon. Scroll down to the bottom and click the button “Create Magic Item”. We don’t need to fill out an Attunement description since this item doesn’t require attunement. So that it’s easy to understand why the “weapon” has the stats it has.

However, just keep things easy I copied the full description of Shillelagh and the relevant entry from Symbiotic Entity. If we flag the weapon as anything other than common then our attack will show up as a weird color.įor the description you can put whatever you like. The reason for this is that DND beyond color codes weapons based on rarity. We will go ahead and mark the weapon as common. This makes it a fairly blank weapon to work with. I’m going to use a flail because it meets our criteria and doesn’t have any additional properties. So we must use a weapon that already deals d8 bludgeoning damage. Unfortunately, we can not simply change how much damage a club or quarterstaff does. We have to base the magic item on a pre-existing weapon. The spell ends if you cast it again or if you let go of the weapon. The weapon also becomes magical, if it isn’t already. For the duration, you can use your spellcasting ability instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of melee attacks using that weapon, and the weapon’s damage die becomes a d8. Shillelagh does the following: The wood of a club or quarterstaff you are holding is imbued with nature’s power. The easiest method I’ve found to get things to work is to create a magic weapon that represents a club (or quarterstaff) that has been enchanted with Shillelagh and is being wielded by a circle of spores druid that has Symbiotic Entity active on them. It is my hope that eventually the spell will interact with weapons the same way the wizard spell Booming Blade does. It’s worth noting that at the time of this article Shillelagh does not interact with weapons the druid is carrying.

In this Tutorial I will go over how to make Shillelagh interact correctly with the circle of spores druid’s Symbiotic Form ability.
