Hello. I was given a Breastplate of Lightning Resistance, +1. Only issue is I could not find it on dndbeyond, only the base Breastplate of Lightning Resistance. I tried to make it myself but the homebrew does not have an option to add resistances to armors.

Did I happen to miss something? Is manually tracking it my only option?

Go to create a new homebrew item. Duplicate "Armor of Lightning Resistance, Breastplate". Rename it to whatever you want. Then save it.

Add a modifier:
Modifier Type: Bonus
Modifier Subtype: Armor Class
Fixed Value: 1
Leave the other fields blank.
This makes it have the +1 effect.

Save the modifier and then save the item.

If you can't duplicate the item and have to start from scratch - add in the modifier:
Modifier Type: Resistance
Modifier Subtype: Lightning
Leave the other fields blank.

 The homebrew does have the capacity to add resistance to Armor. You can do this one of two ways:

You can either start with Breastplate of Lightning resistance and add the following modifier for the +1:

• Modifier: Bonus
• Subtype: AC
• Fixed Value: 1

Or you can start with a Breastplate, +1 and add resistance with the following modifier:

• Modifier: Resistance
• Subtype: Lightning

You will then need to also check off “requires Attunement”

After you save the Modifier you must also then re-save the whole magicitem.

Once the item has been equipped to the character, it will also have to be attuned or your character will not get the bonus.

I hope this was helpful.
