Items

Weapons, armor, materials, and consumables — how items work, what `/item` does, and how gear affects combat.

Items in Roots of the Wild come in many forms and serve a wide variety of purposes. These include Weapons, Armor, and Materials. Each item has its own rarity, type, and functionality. Whether you're gathering ingredients, gearing up for battle, or stocking your inventory, items are essential to gameplay and storytelling alike.

To see item images, stats, and more, visit the Tinglebot Dashboard.

Weapons

Materials

Every character starts with default gear and can collect more through crafting, shops, trades, and events.
Use /item in a Town Hall channel or the community board (including threads there).
/item is blocked while traveling or on an active expedition — use /explore item in the expedition thread instead.
Use /gear in Discord or the Dashboard Equip Gear tab; gear changes are blocked during active expeditions.
Character Attack (weapon) and Defense (armor + shield) totals come from equipped gear modifierHearts values.

Discord command

/item charactername:[your character] itemname:[item] quantity:[optional] jobname:[optional]

Field	Required	Description
`charactername`	Yes	Your character's name (autocomplete)
`itemname`	Yes	The item you want to use (autocomplete)
`quantity`	No	How many to use (default = 1)
`jobname`	No	Only for Job Vouchers — the job you want to perform

What /item Does

A versatile command used to apply items with a range of effects:

Restore hearts and/or stamina
Must be in the Recipe category
Fairies revive KO'd characters
Can't be used when already at full health (unless the item also restores stamina)

Temporarily lets you work a different job — quantity 1 only
Must specify the job (jobname); only one active voucher per character at a time
Some jobs are voucher-restricted; village-locked jobs require your character to be in that village
Unlocks commands for that job's perks (e.g. /gather, /crafting, /loot, /heal, /salvaging)

Increases your total character slots — quantity adds that many vouchers at once

Hatches a Chuchu pet with a random name
Quantity must be 1 per use
Only one active pet per character — store your current pet on the Dashboard before hatching another

Apply buffs (speed, stealth, attack, defense, etc.) or immediate hearts/stamina effects — see the Elixirs guide for tiers, brewing, and spend rules
Stacks can be Basic, Mid, or High tier with different potencies
Buffs last until consumed by the relevant activity (combat, gather, loot, travel, and more)
Debuffed characters cannot use elixirs or other healing items — use a boosted Healer first

Combine exactly 100 jelly into a Chuchu Egg
Works with any one type of jelly (standard, red, white, or yellow)
Must use the full 100 at once

Characters begin with a default set of armor but can collect new armors through crafting, purchasing, trading, winning events, and more.

Only one piece of armor per slot: head, chest, and legs (each must be category Armor with the matching slot type).
If the Materials field says #N/A, the item cannot be crafted and must be acquired another way.

Weapon Loadout Rules

Use /item in any village Town Hall channel (e.g. #inariko-townhall, #rudania-townhall, #vhintl-townhall), the community board, or a thread inside those channels.

Not available while your character is traveling or on an active expedition — on expeditions, use /explore item when the turn embed offers it.

Characters may equip one of the following:
A one-handed weapon and a shield,
A two-handed weapon,
Or a bow.

How Gear Works

Your character's gear directly impacts combat through two core stats:

AttackSum of your equipped weapon's modifierHearts — used for combat roll bonuses.
DefenseSum of head, chest, legs, and shield modifierHearts — used for combat roll bonuses.
Each equipped piece contributes once; stats are stored on your character as Attack and Defense.

Gear Slots

Characters can equip gear in the following slots:

Head Armor

Helmets, hoods

Chest Armor

Tunics, chestpieces

Leg Armor

Pants, leggings

Weapon

Swords, axes, bows, and more

Shield

Shields, bucklers

Combat Impact

Gear bonuses work differently in regular combat versus raid combat.

Gear applies randomly with a success chance:
Weapon: Attack × 10% chance → Bonus = Attack × 10
Armor / Shield: Defense × 2% chance → Bonus = Defense × 2
Example: 3 Attack → 30% chance of +30 bonus · 2 Defense → 4% chance of +6 bonus (armor uses a 1.5× weight before the ×2 bonus)

Gear bonuses are guaranteed:
Weapon: Always adds Attack × 1.8
Armor / Shield: Always adds Defense × 0.7
Example: 3 Attack → +5 bonus · 2 Defense → +1 bonus (bonuses are floored after the multiplier)

Looting System

Use /item in any village Town Hall channel (e.g. #inariko-townhall, #rudania-townhall, #vhintl-townhall), the community board, or a thread inside those channels.

Not available while your character is traveling or on an active expedition — on expeditions, use /explore item when the turn embed offers it.

During /loot, gear can randomly add to your combat roll (see Regular Combat above).
Higher Attack and Defense raise the chance and size of those bonuses.
Better adjusted rolls improve encounter outcomes and what you can walk away with.

Raid System

Not available while your character is traveling or on an active expedition — on expeditions, use /explore item when the turn embed offers it.

Gear is critical in raids.
Guaranteed combat bonuses.
More Attack = more damage.
More Defense = better survival.
Higher team damage = better group rewards.
