Knuckles of Shattering (5e Equipment)

Weapon (brass knuckles), legendary (major) (requires attunement) These steel knuckles are imbued with powerful magic based on the shatter spell. Engraved on each of them are the initials "J.S.". When you make an unarmed strike with these magic weapons, you gain a +2 to the attack and damage rolls, and the target takes an additional 2d8 thunder damage. An inanimate object or structure takes twice the amount of thunder damage. While you wield these magic knuckles, you can use your attacks to tunnel through solid rock by pummeling it. When you make an attack with the knuckles against a stone object such as a floor or wall, you reduce a 10-foot cube section of that object to dust and rubble in front of you. As an action, you can slam your fists together to emit a pulverizing blast. All creatures within a 30-foot cone of you must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw, taking 8d8 thunder damage on a failure or half as much on a success. A creature made of inorganic material such as stone, crystal, or metal has disadvantage on this saving throw. Any nonmagical objects in the effect's area that aren't being worn or carried also take this damage. Once you use this feature of the item, it cannot be used again until the next dawn.
