but be able to have it attuned to an Oath of the Ancients Paladin rather than Oath of Devotion. Is there an easy-ish way to go about recreating that item, but with a different Oath requirement? How is the Oath requirement added? I have only created very little homebrew, so am quite confused. Thanks!
One additional question... with that shield, there are 3 levels. Do you know how I would go about making them so that it doesn't just add +6 AC right out of the gate? Is there a way to make levels of attunement?
Basically, I just want to use this item:
Bastion Shield

Yes, it's very straightforward.
Simply make a new magic item that is a copy of the Bastion Shield, then write a different line in the attunement description. :)
Oh, well that seems easy enough. Thank you!

D&D Beyond FoundersMagical items in 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons don't really have multiple attunement levels like that.
I'm aware that the items from the Tal'dorei campaign guide uses them though.
My recommendation is to homebrew three separate magical items, then equip the appropriate one.
It shouldn't be too much work - once you have made the magical item, you can then create a copy, so there are only a few changes to make.

Yeah, that is what I ended up doing. Or will just adjust it as it levels. Thanks!
