Editing Spelljammer Helm (section)

=Spelljamming Helm (5e)=
Like it or hate how much extra rules 5e cut back on, we now have only a single one-ship-size-fits-all Spelljamming helm with a rarity of rare. Much quality of life improvements have been made, rashinanizable by 3 cosmic reshuffles and about 200 years of innovation between 2 and 5e (and following the gradual simplification of Helm rules since 4e), The helm doesn't drain the helmsman of their all spellslots, just need to attune to it and consentrate.

Usability also expanded, as long a creature can cast a spell, whether it's a psionic user or magic initiate.

The trade off, or at least for higher-level spellcasters, is you can't poor more juice into the engine, as the flight speed is now equal to how fast the ship normally moves instead of based on your helmsman's highest spellslot level. Although the 5e Helm doesn't have a maximum weight limit You can't attach it to an asteroid and make it move.

Creating a 5e helm simply requires a wizard or artificer to cast the 5th level Create Spelljamming Helm spell and expend a crystal rod worth at least 5,000 gp (assuming the DM lets you learn it and a crystal rod that big even exists). With a market price of about 7,500 gp or 10,000+ gp if they are trying to wring you.
