Thanks to an incredibly statistically unlikely series of events and rolls, one of my paladin characters managed to turn a black dragon lawful good by casting the command spell "befriend" while it was wearing a psychically controlled magic collar. The DM rolled 3 nat 1s in a row, cursed, then said the spell interacting with the dragon's nature and the mind control collar caused a random forced alignment change, and the DM rolled lawful good before chucking his D20 across the room. Baphumet had to show up the next session to "take the dragon to safety" because otherwise my Tiefling paladin was going to have a new black dragon mount.

The Alchemy Jug can be used as a reliable way to get the most damage out of a level 1 spell. So you get 5 vials of acid with the Alchemy Jug, put them into a net or tie them together with twine making them a single object weighting 5 lb, then cast Catapult using the vials of acid, and inflict 10d6 Acid + 3d8 Bludgeoning. You could also use a bag of ball bearing or caltrops in order to get their effects, though you won't do extra damage.

If it's not an instant kill would it immobilize the monster. Would the command word not work because it can't hear you inside the monster? The other idea I had was disguising the tower as an actual building, selling it to some one. use the command phrase to steal their house and preform real estate fraud.

One party I DM'ed for was basically the go-to magic item test group. I would set up a one-shot whenever more than one person wanted to play and I had time to DM, which ended up with these ridiculous hooligans creating the following scenarios: One player with a Familiar would load everyone into a Bag of Holding and then throw said bag over basically any obstacle, then have the Familiar get them each out of the bag on the other side. This one was done in our full-fledged campaign and ended up de-railing a solid 40% of the obstacles I had before they decided it wasn't fun anymore. It isn't a magic item, but one of my problem players would habitually use the "soil or clean clothing" feature of Prestidigitation to soil anyone he didn't like's underwear, and then eventually upgraded to holding clean underwear hostage by only stopping the Soil when he was paid a considerable sum. He also used Minor Illusion to create numerous mounds of various gross substances over the course of the campaign. He ended up creating a hilarious scenario where his character was caught wankin' it to a Minor Illusion of a naked person. I made him roll to determine exactly who it was and he rolled a 1 because I guess karma and I ruled that it was the person who walked in on him. It was fun getting payback :) This also isn't a magic item use, but one of my players convinced a boss that they had switched to their side and used Haste on them (the requirement for Haste is that you're willing), then immediately dropped concentration. The effect of dropping concentration on Haste is that you lose your turn, which made it a really bad day for them, seeing as they had no minions in the room. That same problem player I mentioned before decided to torture someone once, using that one regeneration item that allows you to grow back limbs. It was NOT a fun time for anyone involved.

Here was the setting: Party found an ancient underground kingdom with some evil giants caught in a stasis field that we had to survive a set number of rounds against. I'm the party cook and have an alchemy jug. Problem is I want to grease the floor under the giant's foot to make him slip but the jug only makes on quart of oil. HOWEVER it makes 2 GALLONS of Mayo and a large ingredient of mayo is oil. So instead of an oil slick we made an mayo slick and the giant rolled mid and had to treat its initial movement as difficult terrain. Just goes to show, knowing ingredients is a helpful tool

An idea I had, but haven't had the opportunity to do, Requires a book of Flesh Golem, an alchemist's jug, and a portal to the Feywild. Make the golem, find a suclded cave, and give the golem the following instructions; Every 24 hours, and 1 millisecond, Start another timer with the same duration, Then take the jug, empty it as much as you can into a set of barrels, Then go dormant until the new timer ends. Then you go into the Fey, wait one day, return, and then go back, repeat as many times as you want. Due to the Feywild's time manipulation, (and I did the math) every 7 days jumping between the fey activating the Feywild's time shenanigans, ~403 days will pass for every week worth of jumping. So you can get 403 quarts of oil, or 100.75 gallons, or 806 flasks, or 4030-8060 fire damage per 403 material plane days, 7 you days doing this. I'm unsure if this works, but if it does, do with this information as you will.

He could use the helm to teleport back to them after scouting. Pretty fun, pretty creative. I didn't want to say 'Half of an object is not a location'. So two sessions later, one of the party members was kidnapped by a bounty hunter who was stalking them, and was learning about how they operate. The bounty hunter took the half of the locket, placed it in a small animal cage, and drew a magic binding circle to prevent outgoing teleportation. Rogue said "I'll teleport to them, and see if they're ok then teleport back". The party saw him vanish, and not return for a whiiiile.

Dust of dryness is a terrifying item. This small packet contains 1d6 + 4 pinches of dust. You can use an action to sprinkle a pinch of it over water. The dust turns a cube of water 15 feet on a side into one marble-sized pellet, which floats or rests near where the dust was sprinkled. The pellet's weight is negligible. Someone can use an action to smash the pellet against a hard surface, causing the pellet to shatter and release the water the dust absorbed. Doing so ends that pellet's magic. The second part is the terrifying part. 15 cubic feet of water is roughly 112.2 gallons of water. 1 gallon of water is 8.5 pounds. So putting one of these pellets in a sling and smashing it against an enemy would release all of that water at once. It is a decent amount of force. Other then a weapon it can be used to make mud suddenly to slow enemies.

I still want to do a small spelljammer quest where you need to find a defective immovable rod which became locked to one spot.... but on a universal scale, as opposed to locked to one spot over a planet. So as the planet turns and moves, that rod would end up going right through the planet, cause a cataclysm worth of destruction and just sits there out in space for the next celestial body to crash into it and cause more untold chaos.

The mirror of life trapping is arguably my favorite item. Our campaign I was playing a beast-master/battlemaster ranger leading an army of summons. His focus on 'unattuned' magical items and their creative use led to elemental summons, bag(s) of tricks, befriending hirelings (interns), pets, mounts, horn of Valhalla, and many more. But the mirror was the ultimate item. Allowing for creatures who fail a save (willing or unwilling) to be trapped in one of 8 mirror slots. They are stuck within one of 8 realms inside the mirror where there needs are cared for. They can't die or lose hit points. They cant suffocate or age. They keep all gear and/or equipment they have, and are rested. You can talk to each memer trapped as well. The original idea was yo "trap" certain NPCs or creatures for use of information but my ranger called it a pokeball. The new pokeball mirror allowed him to summon much larger creatures including his new elephant.

In the campaign I’m in, we put an Immovable Rod at just above ankle height right next to a flight of stairs that some enemies would be moving by. It was dark, so they couldn’t see it coming. I think 3 of the 7 or so enemies took a nice trip down to the first floor 👌🏼

Well. If dead bodies can be counted as items. My players at level 3 were clearing out a goblin cave. Had nearly 80 of the guys in there. The final room was down a slope and they had built wooden walls in that cavernous spot. It was basically a kill box if they just ran in like fools. So, they gathered up all the goblins they had already slain, took all their spears and a decent amount of rope and skewered/tied all the goblins into a giant ball of goblin. They then lit it on fire and rolled it down into the goblins fortifications. Most creative piece of siege equipment I have ever been witness to.

The 2 main ones that happened in my experience were a player slipping a deck of many things into a regular bar and just destroying an entire city through that. And one of my players basically lived inside a bag of holding, he is a treeperson so his face basically already looked like a weird decoration so he just stuck his head out and got carried like that

I have a charcter who uses two immovable rods to essentially levitate. activate one, pull yourself up on it, lift the second one higher, activate that one, de-activate the first, lift it above the second, activate, rinse and repeat. in the same game, the rods have also been used to: bar doors, act as imprompto anchors and immobilize prone enemies, followed by casting spells with dex saves(like fireball) which they now have disadvantage on. I fckin LOVE immovable rods.

Our DM gave us a rare Staff of Protection (it allows you to cast Shield as an action, only my wizard could use it to its full potential of two spells and he already got a better staff) and a rare Shield of Missile Attraction (for barbarian to get hit more often). We sold them and instead of one person benefiting from one item, everyone except for the druid wear breastplates (he considers becoming a loan shark, pun intended), my wizficer bought an enduring spellbook and scribed a lot of spells, and fighter got better fitting magic weapon. Our DM was surprised when he realized how expensive these things are. I guess it counts as creative, because DM clearly didn't expect that. On one side I feel sorry for him, on the other... my wizard really needed these spells. And I love my spider staff from the same quest. I even incorporated it into my wizards portrait.

One of players started a cult of the immovable rod to avoid making a persuasion check to get information out of a group of hunters. I also had a goblin 'artificer' NPC who had a bottle of sovereign glue and used it to make his 'inventions' by just gluing two ordinary things together. One of my players felt bad for him and bought a double-knife, which was just two daggers glued together.

A player had figured out how to never need a rest again and i figured out how to make a leather harness and attach it to a wagon. We then waterproofed the wagon so it would float and we had.an all terrain travel system that required no camp time because the piolet never had to sleep

If you have more than one immoveable rod, you can use it like a portable free-floating pair of ladder rungs and climb anywhere. Additionally, you can use this concept to angle your "peasant railgun" 90 degrees upward by balancing a large stack of peasants sitting on eachother's shoulders with an immoveable rod. Get grappled by one peasant in the conga line, and the next thing you know you're being rocketed FTL 200 feet up and dropped.

My GM thought it was clever to put a magic item he heard about on the internet into our game. It was a ring of attunement, and all it does is give the wearer and extra attunement slot. However, it requires attunement. At 20th level (Games never go one this long), the ring dose actually serve a purpose if you are an artificer, in giving you a bonus to your saving throws, so you go from a +6 to a +7 technically.

I've always just used the mayo as non flammable oil. Mayo be slick yo, and watching a bunch of goblins slip and slide in a puddle of miracle whip is great fun and tactically advantageous. Had an arificer do the ultimate combo move though. They used their infusion to make a bag of holding that they slowly filled with oil, gave it to a spore zombie made by the party's circle of spores druid while it was holding a torch, then sent it to the next room over, where it proceeded to turn the bag inside out, ejecting several dozen gallons of oil, and exploding a combat encounter.
