Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dausuul" data-source="post: 8079978" data-attributes="member: 58197">The proposed rule took me a little while to wrap my head around, partly because it continues to use the term "charges" for an item that no longer actually has charges. Here's a rewrite, replacing the term "charges" with "power dice":<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Some items have power dice. (The size and number of dice depend on the item.)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">When you activate such an item, you may be required to roll one or more of its power dice.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">If you roll a 1 on a power die, the item becomes enervated. Its power dice are reduced to a single d4.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">If you roll a 1 and the item was already enervated, or if you get two 1s on the same roll, the item is drained and loses all magic.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">An enervated item is restored to normal when [some event happens].</li> </ul>Applying this to a wand of magic missiles:Wand of Magic MissilesThis wand has 7d8 power dice. While holding it, you can use an action and roll power dice to cast the magic missile spell from it. With 1 power die, you cast the 1st-level version of the spell. You can increase the spell slot level by 1 for each additional power die rolled.</blockquote>
