Something I noticed about the Axe of the Dwarvish Lords and the "__ of Commanding __ Elementals" items. Since all the Conjure Creature spells were reworked in 2024 to produce a damaging AoE instead of summoning an ally with a statblock, the change from "You can cast this spell with this item" to "You have to use an action to summon this statblock and here's all the rules on commanding it" was far more necessary than just buffing the effect of the 2014 spell.

[@nickm9102]

For the cube, the walls and ceilings part is saying that you can exclude them from being affected by the barrier. The point of the “if something is not able to pass theough the barrier, you cant move closer” is just to stop you from using it to break down doors/walls, push enemies of cliffs, using it as a submarine, crushing things beneath it etc. they wanted it to be a defensive item.

The old cube of force was a simplified and loreless version of one of the OLDEST magic items to appear in d&d, and it made a lot of sense with the ways old games ran

[@MonkeyJedi99]

From way back in the days when players weren't afraid of a little number tracking. Ammunition, specific spell components for nearly everything, charges on magic items, ENCUMBERANCE (!)...

[@MethosJK9]

The old Cube of Force was also really interesting. The new one might as well be a rod or wand that can cast some rafter boring spells.

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

@ right? Heck, the game used to recommend that players had at least a few years of college, tho that would be equivalent to highschool in modern school, well, if they actually taught what they say they did… but even so, like… half the Fun was trying to figure out what options gave you better numbers, and what things could work without number, just using imagination…

[@BlueRadium]

I remember the Book of Vile Darkness as an item my chaotic good Beguiler tried to use in 3.5 with Use Magic Device. I was already waking up every day and using it to emulate alignment for a black/evil Robe of the Archmagi. We got ahold of the Book of Vile Darkness and I couldn't resist trying to emulate the evil alignment and reading it. It's the sort-of thing my character was built for. Long story short I failed, turned chaotic evil, the big bad offered to reverse time to fix me in exchange for the book, at great cost to him that was more than made up for by the book, which got him from level like 24 to even more epic multiclassed 25 and buffed him for the big fight. Don't read the Book of Vile Darkness, kids. It's just an infinite cacophony of screams that make a solid case for burning down orphanages, 2.5/10

[@RedJackz]

I fail to see how the OG cube of force was so complicated for people. Cube of force has these main points: 1. It's shaped like a medium sized dice with a face on each side. 2. It has 36 charges that recharge daily at a 1d20 roll 3. It's effect is basically a large box of force around you designed to keep you out of danger you specify by the face you press on the cube. 4. This box of force will block you from moving into solid objects that it comes into contact with. 5. Each charge specifies matter that can or cannot pass through at each level. Depending on the level chosen, this can circumvent rule 4 (per the specific beats general rule). If anybody has anything to add, feel free to.

[@EpicRandomness555]

I’m actually really glad you made this Jacob, because basically no one that I’ve seen has actually listed every item and said something’s changed. If something wasn’t changed much they just don’t say it. But I want to know anything that was or was not changed.

[@PhantomRoxas]

Absolutely devastated that Daern's Instant Fortress doesn't do damage anymore, that was one of the funniest things to do. I once had a backup character who would use that, but then eventually switched back to my previous character. During the final battle of campaign, the party was fighting a lich, who had brainwashed my backup character. Reverse Gravity had a placed in an area, so several characters were stuck in the air. When my backup character used Daern's Instant Fortress, Reverse Gravity caused the fortress to "fall" to the ceiling, hitting a couple characters. While the DM and I had to work out the details of how the item worked, that campaign made it one of my favorite items. However, I appreciate that the different parts of it do have an AC now, since I remember the lack of one being a problem in that campaign.

[@nealenthenerd399]

29:10 He didn’t even mentioned how it was changed. Basically 2014 Cloak of Billowing has you use a Bonus action to use it. 2024 has it where once you use your bonus action to activate it, the Cloak billows for 1 minute.

[@XPtoLevel3]

look, I forgot to open XGtE. What a fool I am.

The Cloak of Billowing in 2024 is definitely more useful However consistently having to use a Bonus-Action to billow the cape is objectively hilarious

Fun fact: Adamantine Weapons were already a thing in the game back in Xanathar’s Guide to Everything! But not as a Magic item, instead you would coat your weapon with Adamantine similar to how your would Silver your weapons in the Player’s Handbook!

38:04 - the important part with the cube is the old one KILLED most users with suffocation 3/5 times unless you specified you took a breath beforehand, because it was so focused on walls they forgot the air clause from older versions of the cube.

Huge Cube of Force nerf. There were so many creative and silly things you could do with it before and now it's just you can cast some spells that someone in the party already knows :/

[@Bulldogg6404]

The absolute patience of this man, i respect it. You had to research it all, record it all, edit it all, and this is just the first four _letters._ My god. I threw the URL into a transcript AI for the LULs, and when I pasted the output into a document, it was roughly *30 pages.*

[@ElTaitronAnim]

Yes, 2014 Cube of Force first says that solid objects (normally) can't pass through the cube, but faces 2 and 5 specifically allow walls/floors/ceilings to pass through, making this an example of "specific beats general" (which is why it says "a solid object that can't pass through the cube"). Granted, it is a bit clunky, but it does make sense. (I think you understood it, but in case others don't)

[@TheHeroExodus]

Dunno... 7:45 sounds fun. Losing the curse robs a bit of the fun from it.

[@landanross2966]

Just homebrew it in if you want, making it a feature of the item was definitely weird im with Jacob

[@solarislamb]

I had a player who actively sought the item out due to that curse, since they were an elf that wanted to become a dwarf (to be more like their adoptive family). Because elves can't grow beards, it was one of the few ways they could actually get one.

[@BeaDSM]

Cube of Force is entirely different! It's not doing the same thing at all

[@obliqueObloquy]

I'm really sad about the changes to Cube of Force. It was absolutely my favorite magic item in 5E and it just isn't even remotely the same. I've used it with readied actions to save our entire party from breath weapons, to make a shield to block arrows and swords while firing off eldeitch blasts, among many other things. It was an item that rewarded creativity tremendously, but... now it's just spells. One bad change in a sea of many good ones, thankfully.

[@bendekbotond4707]

I was already half way through the video when I REALISED this only covers items from A-D! Holy shit, thats gonna be a lot work until he finishes every item😮

One notable change to Broom of Flying you didn't mention is that it now also requires attunement, which it didn't in 2014.

[@billmarmot2069]

I don't think the old Cube of Force was too complicated. It was just simply too powerful.

[@arsia.]

Yeah I feel like it's crap now.

[@MonkeyJedi99]

And Jacob's overreaction to the "BUT YOU CAN LET WALLS THROUGH?" meant that you weren't stuck in one room or alley until the cube dropped. But if you had the "no non-living things can pass" effect up, your progress can be stopped by an undead you can't push, or a pile of dead bodies. With the "no living things can pass" effect you could be stopped by a shrubbery.

I appreciate the dedication to th editing. I don’t want to know how long it took to just book in slightly every time you said the item. Worth it

[@alexmiller1800]

I like the Magic Action. It clarifies when a magic item has a passive effect (such as a bonus to AC, Saving Throws, or advantage on certain checks or skills) vs an effect you need to trigger or activate. I remember a few instances when the table was unsure if a command word was meant to use an action, bonus action, or free action for an effect that 8/10 times should require an action. Good change, and I’m glad you can’t action surge to use a magic item. Except the Broom of Flying. Requiring a magic action to activate the one thing the broom is able to do is dumb and really limits your options in combat.

[@tedbourchert5986]

I dont really like this. If they would do more of a 3 action thing like pathfinder, I would like it better. Just naming different actions that basically use the same action kind of muddies the waters and confuses people. It was simpler they way it used to be and I thought that was what they were going for. Simple

[@tedbourchert5986]

Basically if they want to complicate things I wish they would do it more, maybe. I generally use DnD to introduce players to ttrpgs and then move to pathfinder, provided they want more from the system. Really I just miss 3rd and 3.5.

I think the Dwarven Thrower specification is a nod to the Vox Machina campaign of Critical Role, since Matt Mercer specified that because Grog was so attuned with the Belt of Dwarvenkind for so long he could attune to the Dwarven Thrower.

[@suracha8130]

Unlikely to have anything to do with Critical Role. It was just a logical change to make.

[@JrgenHelland00]

It's not like the split between using the Magic or the Utilize action is a new thing, only that they tell you that they are different. In 2014 you had the choise between the Use an Object (from the PHB) and the Activate an Item (introduced in the DMG alongside a nerf to thief rogues) actions. Most people only reads the PHB and would not know the difference. Very good clarification in the new rules.

The Cauldron of Rebirth actually came from Tasha's, so no wonder it's awesome. Also, I too enjoy the simplicity of the new Cube of Force. And Defenders can be any melee weapon now? Sweet! Another vicious detail about the Dust of Sneezing and Choking: it looks like Dust of Disappearance, and even tricks the Identify spell, so a party that finds it will very likely end up using it on themselves🤣🤧💀

[@redstoneraptor8101]

I used a 2014 cube of force once that I can recall in my entire D&D career. The dungeon master had a room filling up with toxic gases and my armorer artificer happened to have a cube of force built into his armor, so I had the whole party get within 15ft of me and I put up the barrier that blocks gasses and vapors. It was pretty awesome to be able to just shut down the trap that the GM had planned for us.

[@AsaNoGaijin]

basically every change is making the game easier, making the player stronger, and woke - so that no one feels excluded. The Dwarven Axe being usable by anyone instead of just Dwarves is the best example.
