One thing I would love added to dndbeyond for spells, if you buy/find spell components there would be a separate tab for that. Example 300 go diamond to cast this spell, vial of human blood for that spell etc. 

If I was afflicted by a mind flayer brain worm, would I be able to have someone smash my skull and pull the worm out then bring me back with revivify? This would hopefully be before I lost parts of my brain.

Do you DM's out there care about the 300gp Diamond component to use this spell?

I DM my group and for the majority of spells, i don't care if the players have incense or wires, or whatever material to channel their spells. But Revival spells (revivify, raise dead) seem more serious and have more of a need to follow the components necessary to do the spell.

Would it be a "bad-move" to incorporate that into my campaign? Thoughts?

 All spells that require some sort of valuable item and especially the ones that consume said item do it for a reason. Not only does it prevent spamming the spell, but it also allows creative plays around it from both sides. So for instance if a ritual calls for, let's say a silver mirror worth 1000 gp, either the players or npcs can ruin a ritual by casting heat metal on it (possibly) or incense can be disturbed/stolen, etc. It also gives flavor which you can play on if you want.

This spells needs an update: 

"Coming back from the dead is an ordeal. The target takes a −4 penalty to all attack rolls, saving throws, and ability checks. Every time the target finishes a long rest, the penalty is reduced by 1 until it disappears."

Dying is traumatic, as is being brought back to life.  I see no reason why the time elapsed passing from one state to another should make any impact beyond the level of the spell required.  You don't want to take the penalty?  Don't die.

 The spell doesn't need that penalty. The difference is that you need to revivify within the minute. That is when soul still lingers around the body. Maybe they just have out of body experience etc. 
Raise dead let's you bring back someone who was dead for up to 10 days. That means they already went to the light and started settling in. They accepted they died etc. Whole experience of dying sunk in, while with revivify it was more of a really bad dream.

What if the dead person is beheaded, would revivify still work?

For any spell that does not have a listed cost for material components, you can substitute a component pouch or spell focus.

i don't see it  on here but can i add this  into my book of shadows from book of ancient secrets as a ritual spell

depends on dm when i died as a tabaxi they brought me back to life as a rock gnome than i had to seek help from someone higher up who could put me back as a  tabaxi.

Yes

question, one of my players used this on a poor chap who was ripped in half. they cast mending, and then this. would it have restored them to life?

 As a DM it is your call, but I would personally rule that this wouldn't work. My reasoning for this is that mending is a cantrip, and cantrips are meant to be limited in power. I would say that fixing that much damage would take longer than a minute by most means. If they found some other way to fix the body and they cast revify within one minute of death I don't see why it wouldn't work. But, as always, being the DM gives you the authority to rule whichever way you want. Hope this helps :) 

Yes

What would happen to a vampire that I used this spell on?

If you follow Sage Advice, a just-destroyed vampire that has this spell cast on it will be revived as a vampire.

This is one of many, many reasons I no longer follow Sage Advice.

(If the vampire has not been destroyed, the spell will generally not do anything, since it can only target a creature that died within the last minute. If a creature were killed and then somehow instantly brought back as a vampire... maybe you could target it with revivify and turn it from a vampire into a living person at 1 hp? That'd be up to your DM. I'd probably say yes, just because it's a clever use of the spell and the circumstances are not likely to come up often.)

 The problem with that is, it takes a true restoration to revive someone and remove something like a magical curse.

Can all domains of cleric use this spell?

nice but all casters of this get it late

Hey! I was wondering after casting this onto a PC do then then count as an undead, I have a paladin oathbreaker that wants to know if a party member benefits from the aura of hatred that states it benefits undead and fiends by giving a bonus to melee damage roles equal to the paladins charisma modifier after being returned by this spell. Is there something said or is it up to the DM?

Thann you!

Mmhh, for me it should not be possible to cast revivify on a vampire since they are Undead, when they became a Vampire they technically became Undead. If they die after 1 minute of the transformation I think it should count as unable to be revivified.

Yes, that is the point of this spell.

As a house rule, any material component under 1 gp is assumed to be in possession of the wizard... this covers most spells, anything higher, I feel like the material component is an intended restriction on how many times a caster can use a spell.... It helps prevent a healer say, using revivify on an entire troop that just got fireballed.

and in desperation, your players might be forced to choose between a 50 gp diamond and, say.... Food ;)
