Want to make your Cleric simply divine? Grab the right gear! Here are some of the best magic items for Clerics in D&D.

Clerics have long been one of the stronger classes in D&D. They can fill an important role in any party: offering support magic like healing and buff spells that can enhance your allies or debilitate your enemies. With the right selection of spells, and the ability to wear armor or wield weapons, depending, a Cleric can take on many roles in a party.

You can’t really go wrong, playing a Cleric. And with the right magic items, you can go extremely right instead. Here are some of the best magic items for Clerics — any Clerics — in D&D.

First, let’s talk about magic items that any Cleric can make do with. Unlike Fighters, they already have a ton of options. What most Fighters might need magic items for, they can just use spells instead.

But the one thing every Cleric wants is an Amulet of the Devout. If you can get your hands on one, not only do you upgrade your spell save DCs and spell attack rolls, but you can also Channel Divinity once more per long rest. Only Clerics or Paladins can attune, and it works with every single Cleric build no matter what. Any Cleric should go out of their way to get one if they can.

Otherwise, Clerics cover most of the gaps other classes face. You might pick something that gives you a kind of movement you don’t have access to. Like Boots of Flying or Slippers of Spider Climbing. But because you can cast spells and generally have good defenses as a baseline, you have a lot of freedom.

Whatever you go with, it’s all gonna be gravy. A lot depends on the kind of Cleric you pick. There are a ton of different Cleric options, but by and large, they fall into one of three kinds of Clerics: Spellcasting Clerics, Melee Clerics, and Support Clerics.

Let’s take a look.

These are probably the most common Cleric type. It includes:

Spellcasting Clerics are the ones who use spells most in combat. These are the more offensively focused spellcasters, though they can do their fair share of support as well. But their class features support casting certain kinds of spells (for the most part, it’s weird that Tempest who are all about lightning spells, get Divine Strike) before anything else.

For these Clerics, naturally, magic items that make you better at casting spells are the way to go:

Melee Clerics include, but are not limited to:

These Clerics use magic and class features to get right up in your face and hit you while wearing armor. Their class features supplement their ability to wade into a fight and either deal damage or endure punishment.

As such, you’ll want magic items that help you do exactly that. Here are some good defensive options:

What about offensive options? Try these:

These are Clerics whose abilities are naturally focused on giving boons to your allies or controlling enemies.

As such, they can benefit from both sets of magic items. But they really get the extra mile when you pick options that let you keep your resources for offering support/healing.

But really, when it comes to Clerics, whatever you pick is gravy
