This page is incomplete and/or lacking flavor. Reason: Do the gauntlets grant you an additional bonus action, or allow you to use your existing bonus action to make an unarmed strike? Missing SRD links. 07:11, 30 May 2025 (UTC)

This page needs grammatical help. Reason: Full of unnecessary bolding. Magic items use second-person language ("you" and "your", not "the wearer"). 07:11, 30 May 2025 (UTC)

Wondrous item, uncommon (major) (requires attunement)
These enchanted gauntlets are made of mystical fabric and leather, engraved with runes that softly glow with elemental energy.
Compatibility. If they already have the Martial Arts class feature, they gain 1 additional ki point (which recovers after a long rest) and get +2 to attack rolls made with unarmed strikes.
Elemental Safety. The wearer is unaffected by elemental damage or effects caused by their own Elemental Gauntlets.
Elemental Strikes. When you hit with an unarmed strike using these gauntlets, roll 1d6 to determine the elemental type:
| d6
|
Damage type
|
| 1 |
Acid
|
| 2 |
Cold
|
| 3 |
Fire
|
| 4 |
Lightning
|
| 5 |
Poison
|
| 6 |
Thunder
|
|
The target takes 1d6 additional damage of the chosen type and must make a DC 18 saving throw using the indicated ability. On a success, it takes half damage and avoids the additional effect.
Martial Boost. If you wear both gauntlets, you can use an action to dash forward 9 meters in a straight line. (This does not provoke opportunity attacks). You can use this feature once per long rest.
Bonus Action. While wearing both gauntlets, you gain 1 bonus action each turn, which can only be used to make an unarmed strike.
