Wave (Trident)
So I a while back gave one of my players Wave a supposed legendary item. However in practice it acts more like an artifact, it only has insane abilities that break the game and no draw backs. (if you don’t know its abilities, look it up in the DMG)
One of my biggest philosophies as a DM is to not arbitrarily retcon a player ability unless it was a misunderstanding of the rules/wording. (eg. if someone reads something wrong.)
So in order to counter this over powered weapon I have been implementing environmental difficulties to “distract” the player who wields wave. I want to know how other DM’s handled this weapon and any suggestions they have to curb it. But I don’t want to randomly kill the character off, that’s no fun for anyone. Think of the players.
