How many magic items should the party have at each level?
Of these, 75 will be minor items, and only 7 will be magic weapons. Conclusion 1: Use my chart instead of Xanathar’s if you are a fan of unnecessarily high precision. Conclusion 2: Magical treasure is given out rather sparingly in 5e, apart from minor items, which are given out like candy.
Do you have to have a magic item to be a spellcaster?
If the prerequisite is to be a spellcaster, a creature qualifies if it can cast at least one spell using its traits or features, not using a magic item or the like. Without becoming attuned to an item that requires attunement, a creature gains only its nonmagical benefits, unless its description states otherwise.
How many magic items can a creature attune to?
An item can be attuned to only one creature at a time, and a creature can be attuned to no more than three magic items at a time. Any attempt to attune to a fourth item fails; the creature must end its attunement to an item first. Additionally, a creature can’t attune to more than one copy of an item.
