- Magical Items – Uncommon – Gloves of Missile Snaring – 400 gp
- Standard: These gloves seem to almost meld into your hands when you don them. If you ready with a bonus action, you can attempt to deflect a ranged weapon that hits you as a reaction. You attempt to reduce the damage by 1d6+your Dexterity modifier and if successful take no damage, otherwise take additional damage equal to the number rolled.
- Attunement: You don’t need to spend a bonus action to ready. When a ranged weapon attack hits you while you’re wearing them, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage by 1d10 + your Dexterity modifier, if you have a free hand. If you reduce the damage to 0, you can catch the missile if it is small enough for you to hold in that hand.
- Relic: If used by a Human then you can roll the dice twice and take the higher result. If used by an Makai, you can add an extra dice to reduce the damage.

- Magical Items – Uncommon – Salmon Gloves of Missile Snaring – 400 gp
- Standard: A set of gloves, made from the scales of fish, and comfortable over the hands like a second skin. These gloves seem to almost meld into your hands when you don them. If you ready with a bonus action, you can attempt to deflect a ranged weapon that hits you as a reaction. You attempt to reduce the damage by 1d6+your Dexterity modifier and if successful take no damage, otherwise take additional damage equal to the number rolled. Over time, the scales of the fish have changed, but it is unclear what that represents.
- Attunement: You don’t need to spend a bonus action to ready. When a ranged weapon attack hits you while you’re wearing them, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage by 1d10 + your Dexterity modifier, if you have a free hand. If you reduce the damage to 0, you can catch the missile if it is small enough for you to hold in that hand.
- Relic: If used by a Human then you can roll the dice twice and take the higher result. If used by an Makai, you can add an extra dice to reduce the damage.
