I'm hoping the "Star Razor" is a listed Vestige. I would like to see the stats for it!

I am hoping for a wonderous item more so than weapons or armor, harder to acheive but would be very interesting Otherwise, more class-specific stuff, the wraps of dyamak and mythcarver were great etc. Perhaps a barbarian-specific thing that interacts with rage or a warlock thing that grants a special invocation

Not one I’m hoping to see but I made. My own vestige for my campaign one insert character. Raiba, Longsword, Artifact A Katana of the renowned Nishitani clan of Blacksmiths who lived on a secluded archipelago in the Lucidian ocean leagues off the southwest shore of Tal’Dorei this blade was made thru a Triumvirate between the Stormlord, the Allhammer and the Matron of Ravens to be weirder I’m battle against the forces of darkness Dormant- +1 to attack and damage rolls. This weapon has a number of charges each can be expended to cast certain spells starting the 5 charges. 1 charge Zephyr Strike, 2 charges Thunders step, 3 charges Haste. Spell save DC for this weapons abilities is 15 Awakened, gains +2 to attack and damage rolls. Number of charges increases to 8 gaining additional spells. 4 charges, Lightning Bolt cast at 4th level. 5 charges Steel Wind Strike Exalted: +3 to attacks and damage rolls. The weapon gains a form of sentience as the souls of previous weilders of Raiba make their prescient know. The sword is LG has 15 intelligence 20 wisdom and 16 charisma and communicates with the wielded one soul at a time and instructs as a master would instruct a student as long as the wielded is worthy. The number of charges increases to 10 and by expending 6 charges the souls of the warriors within can be called to do battle. As an action you can summon one sword wraith commander and two sword wraiths to fight on your behalf. They move on your initiative and receive their orders as they are summoned and require a bonus action to alter commands once given.

I kind of wanna see a shield vestige. Maybe a vestige of Sarenrae that could give clerics an aura like ability. Or a cloak of the traveler. I dont know what it would do but I mean... imagine jester being even more of a trickster. It could influence all of her non damage spells like dimension door and maybe have something like the marvelous pigments.

Waiting for the Vestige playable race DLC...jk. I am hoping for some mechanics on how to design our own Vestiges for our campaigns...and the integration of Vestige Homebrews on D&D Beyond!!

A Warforged, that was designed as a Vestige itself. Son of the Allhammer. Dig It

@@pranakhan Thinking about Matt's setting, a Warforged (or equivalent) could be considered as a vestige itself. Intelligent lifeform created by a powerful wizard to do their bidding. Or maybe the Warforged could be a alternative to Lichdom.

@@Valtremors using a filled soul containment gem as the "heart" of the warforge that gives it the spark of life. It taps into the soul's memories and abilities, slowly making them its own over time.

SpoopyGhoul that is a sick backstory, I’m definitely using that plot!

Bastion from Overwatch ;-) ?

A VERY solid idea for a character concept!

Or even just as an NPC; turns out that little buddy they unlocked is a lot more than they bargained for. "Turns out the real ancient superweapons were the friends we made along the way."

Sounds like the robot from that Sonic Fighting game Game Boy advanced

In Matt's defense though, Asmodeus is an awesome god.

Mercer is either an Elf or a God himself lol

@@DefectiveDetective420 definitely a god

Someone's gonna stumble across one of his vestiges and not even know

DefectiveDetective That’s definitely Taliesin

I know me too! They are so cool, especially if you can level the weapons up too!

The way he described it when Cad did the Legend Lore spell certainly sounded like a potential Vestige.

After hearing this I def think it is.

It isn’t confirmed to be one yet? I thought it already is.

kelnhide Technically, Vestiges haven’t been revealed in campaign 2. We don’t officially know WHAT the StarRazor, despite many in the community, including myself, believe it is a vestige

@@Boom-fs2ny actually in a previous episode while Beau or Caleb was going through books in the library they has skimmed through various topics and one of them was vestiges. Now they never researched deeper into them, but it has been mentioned.

CR is a great show to watch, and has a great world behind it. I find myself using the Tal'dorei campaign setting book a lot and will probably use the Wildemount book even more

Same situation, same reaction.

AGREE! I WANNA KNOW WHO BOTH THOSE PEOPLE ARE!

@@christofferhougaard That was my artwork, stoked to see it in the video!

@@Swatches Can it be found somewhere in high-res?

I adored that book too, even though mechanically it was a dumpster fire of epic proportions. Such flavor, such a wild idea...so terribly executed... At least Mercer has made the concept functional enough that a DM could take the concept and build their own for their campaigns

Yes, yes and yes

@@fallenhero3654 thank you! have a good day or night.

Exandria is his personal campaign setting that he has built over the years for the show Critical Role. Wildemount and Tal'Dorei are continents in that world. Before this book, he had a guide to Tal'Dorei published through another company. This new one for Wildemount is a big step because Wizards of the Coast (the guys who make DnD) is publishing this one instead. Because you're new, I can see how this "canon" bit can sound a bit confusing. There is more than one Dungeons and Dragons setting. In earlier editions of the game, it was thought that all of these different worlds (The Forgotten Realms, Greyhawk, Eberron, Dragonlance, etc...) were part of some larger multiverse. Most of WoTC's published adventures and setting books take place in the Forgotten Realms. In short: Matt's world, since it has a guide published by the actual developers and publishers of the game, has become part of the larger canon of the DnD multiverse.

@@oldmanhiver3766 that makes a lot more sense. thank you

Yes and yes.

I didn't even realize the sphynx gave it to scanlan till my fourth watch through

He used it that one time against kevdek to like perma hold person him

I think so yeah.

It's a pretty cool item mechanic from campaign one, and I'd love to see it spread as a template.

Not the ones from Campaign 1 / the Tal’Dorei guide.

@@Arkatox I'm hoping that Fandom is able to strike a side deal with Green Ronin to at least put the Tal'dorei subclasses and magic items online, and that's the bonus we get for pre-ordering

There are arms of the betrayers

Just as a complete dungeon? That would be amazing.

Oh that would be great. Dungeon of the Gem Mage

The folding halls of hallas

that decent idea but they make a apperences in the toldorai guide the first setting guide based in critical role and if your familier with critical role campaign 1 then you should know what they are.

@@michaelliggett1622 I am not too familiar with Critical Role. I only made that assessment based on the title.

The whole idea is that they legendary artifacts of God's and devils and demons that grow stronger

The Sleeves of the Miraculous Magician (working name). Attunement: full caster class. Creator: Corellon. A pair of arm sleeves encircled with interwoven, interconnecting spell circles leading to the symbol of Corellon. Properties. Bonus to spell Attack Rolls & DC (DO: +1, AW: +2, EX: +3) Can Enter Enlightened State where any time you roll an Attack Roll to deliver spell damage, the minimum Nat roll to land Critical Hit is reduced by bonus (DO: +1, AW: +2, EX: +3). You enter this state as a Bonus action, requires no action to dismiss, the total time you can use this State per day is equal to the bonus in minutes (DO: 1, AW: 2, EX: 3) & resets at dawn. (AW) You can choose 1 Concentration Spell you know from either the school of Conjuration, Enchantment, Transmutation or Illusion. Once per Long rest, after touching both sleeves together as part of a somatic Spell Component, you cast this spell without using a Spell Slot & does not interfere with casting other Concentration Spell (separate Concentration Saves). The level the spell is cast at is equal to your Proficiency. You can change the chosen spell when you level up. (EX) You can choose another spell that is not the same School to gain these benefits. Each Sleeve stores a spell & the somatic component changes to touching the sleeve which spell was cast with your other hand. You can also change which spell is stored once per crescent moon (waxing for left hand, waning for right). (EX) When you enter the Enlighten state, you gain a feature of a class that is 1 level higher than your current level in the class. The feature cannot be improvements to spell slot, ability score improvements or feats.

Wasn't it scanlan's sword from campaign 1?

I remember something about Scanlan receiving Ioun's blessing, which let him use Mythcarver fully.

I would be surprised if the star razor isn't a vestige

Michael Termine Oh, that’s an interesting possibility. Otherwise I’d say probably not.

@@heykak See I was thinking the exact same thing, but I wasn't sure if it was outright revealed. Definitely something to look out for. 👀

Not yet, although i hope the star razor is one

PRODIGIOUS!

I agree with this

Shield vestiges have to be hard because evn if it just became a +4 shield that is +6 to AC which is seriously hefty I meam, add on if they are attacked within x range and the attack hits (or misses?) The attacked takes y damage and the ability to cast shield from the shield with z charges to do so Perhaps a covering feature to help allies Would work But gonna be hard to balance

I mean he only keep that rest of the vestiges in Taldorei to +3 max primarily, so I’d assume it’d just have other abilities on top of being a eventual +3 shield

Honor’s Last Stand from the previous book Honor’s Last Stand Edit Features Edit Description Armor (shield), legendary (requires attunement by a non-evil character) This massive, silvered shield bearing the crest of the Platinum Dragon never tarnishes. The metal is warm to the touch. [9] Dormant State While holding the shield, the wielder has a +1 bonus to AC. This bonus is in addition to the shield’s normal bonus to AC. The wielder is immune to the prone condition while bearing this shield. Awakened State The bonus to AC increases to a +2. Whenever a creature’s attack against the wielder misses, they can use their reaction to immediately attempt to make a shove attack against that creature. Exalted State The bonus to AC increases to a +3. Using a bonus action, the wielder can protect an adjacent ally, imparting +3 to their AC until the beginning of the wielder's next turn, or the ally is no longer adjacent to them (whichever comes first).

@@owlknightc8912 i had forgotten about that 😂, i am curious how it makes them immine to prone

@@myveryunprofessionalvideop5830 shield so big that it holds you up?

KZfaq algorithm favors consistent, frequent content releases over longer, less frequent ones. It’s not peak algorithm. If it was, they’d all be about 10 mins long,

May I recommend "The way of kings" from the Stormlight Archives or "Warbreaker" by Brandon Sanderson for exactly such a sword? :) It's called nightblood and it wants to "Destroy all evil".

That'd be cool though.

Or it is a nod back to the 3.5 book Weapons Of Legacy :)

Much more likely that its what gryphoncompanion said.

Is it a vestage???

@@rexosaur9535 possibly

People who're grumpy about it "nOt BEeInG DaArKSun"

No

Legend has it he have no lower body, he just place himself on top of the table and put a screen around him to hide the fact

Such an underrated comment! xD

Ryan Smith It’s from the show

Every time you mention it one of the council members dies.

wait, I only heard that one of the members gets called back by their respective deity. I heard a half-elven girl is annoying Pelor a lot, and the DawnFather is regretting some immortal life choices.

Or you can just make a playlist

Wait, so you’re canon? That’s so cool. How can I become canon?

@@CharlieSmurffy Not saying I'm canon or anything, I just think it's cool that he's implementing the idea of actually getting some of the vestiges of divergence.
