D&D 5E - CoS: Blood Spear OP?
Publish date: 2024-05-21
I was looking at the stats for the Blood Spear in Curse of Strahd. It says, "When you "hit with a melee attack using this magic spear and reduce the target to 0 hit points, you gain 2d6 temporary hit points."There's no cap on the maximum number of hit points and no requirement for the target to be any certain level. So in the hands of a munchkin player, I could see this leading to "Before our next battle, I get up early and go out in the woods and kill squirrels until I have triple HP." It would be cheesy as all get-out, but there's nothing to actually prevent that, right?
ETA since this thread has been bumped: It's been explained to me that temporary hitpoints don't work that way.
