A Guide to Tool Proficiency Use in D&D (5e)
This guide will give you a way to incorporate the use of tool proficiencies into the game that makes them useful for players¸ particularly during downtime. Finally a way to use your tool proficiencies other than thieves tools or disguise kit. Use your Alchemist Supplies to try and brew potions¸ or your woowworking tools to make and sell trinkets. Your catrographer's tools to design maps of places you've been and sell them. Or you could build yourself a house. Or you could even use your thieves' tools to complete contracts for people in the area but don't forget you'll risk being caught by the authorities. The guide runs off a system suggesting the number of uses available for a kit before it needs to 'restocked' for a slightly lower price than the purchase of the item since initially buying the item you had to purchase all the tools as well as the crafting supplies¸ but now you just need the supplies to top it back up. Enjoy a new layer to your D&D 5e game and earn a little money while you're at it.
