Magic Table 5e

The Sorcerer table shows how many Spell Slots you have to cast your Spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these Sorcerer Spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended Spell Slots when you finish a Long Rest. Magic is a part of every sorcerer, suffusing body, mind, and spirit with a latent power that waits to be tapped. Some sorcerers wield magic that springs from an ancient bloodline infused with the magic of dragons. Others carry a raw, uncontrolled magic within them, a chaotic storm that manifests in unexpected ways.

As your character goes on adventures and overcomes challenges, he or she gains experience, represented by experience points. A character who reaches a specified experience point total advances in capability. This advancement is called gaining a level.
When your character gains a level, his or her class often grants additional features, as detailed in the class description. Some of these features allow you to increase your ability scores, either increasing two scores by 1 each or increasing one score by 2. You can't increase an ability score above 20. In addition, every character's proficiency bonus increases at certain levels.
Each time you gain a level, you gain 1 additional Hit Die. Roll that Hit Die, add your Constitution modifier to the roll, and add the total to your hit point maximum. Alternatively, you can use the fixed value shown in your class entry, which is the average result of the die roll (rounded up).
When your Constitution modifier increases by 1, your hit point maximum increases by 1 for each level you have attained. For example, if your 7th-level fighter has a Constitution score of 18, when he reaches 8th level, he increases his Constitution score from 17 to 18, thus increasing his Constitution modifier from +3 to +4. His hit point maximum then increases by 8.
The Character Advancement table summarizes the XP you need to advance in levels from level 1 through level 20, and the proficiency bonus for a character of that level. Consult the information in your character's class description to see what other improvements you gain at each level.

Character Advancement

If you're playing by-the-book 5e D&D, how much magical treasure is a party likely to find? Is it less than other editions? Is that wererat's immunity to normal weapons a big deal?

The DMG and Xanathar's Guide offer some guidance: 'Over the course of a typical campaign, a party finds treasure hoards amounting to seven rolls on the Challenge 0-4 table, eighteen rolls on the Challenge 5-10 table, twelve rolls on the Challenge 11-16 table, and eight rolls on the Challenge 17+ table.' That's 45 rolls, roughly two per character level: three per level at CR 5-10, because level advancement slows there because that's the game's 'sweet spot'. (I'm assuming that most fights are intended to be against a CR equal to character level, which may be a big assumption, but which looks borne out by this treasure distribution.)

Xanathar's Guide has a further table, Magic Items Awarded by Tier, which specifies the number of major and minor items the party should expect to collect. For instance, during character levels 1-4, it says the party is supposed to accumulated 9 'minor' items (mostly expendable items like potions and scrolls, plus a few low-power permanent items) and 2 'major' items (like magic swords and shields and ioun stones and the like). During character levels 5-10, the party should find 28 more minor items and 6 more major items.

Because I like to check math, I decided to, well, check the math, and I found that the Xanathar's chart is close to, but not 100%, accurate. For example, let's take the number of major items collected during levels 5-10. Xanathar's says 6 items will be accumulated over 18 treasure rolls. Let's compare this to the Dungeon Master's Guide treasure tables.

In one treasure roll for levels 5-10, you have a 14% chance of getting 1d4 items from Magic Item Table F (an expectation of .35 items), a 4% chance of getting 1d4 items from Magic Item Table G (an expectation of .1 items), and a 2% chance of an item from Magic Item H (.02 items). Over 18 rolls, that's 8.46 major magic items. Not a big difference from 6 – 40% off, which is in the ballpark – but if the Xanathar's table is at all useful to you, you may like to have a more accurate version of the table.
My more detailed (broken down by level) and accurate chart is below.

I've also added a column for Magic Weapons: this is how many of the party's major items can be expected to be magic weapons, based on the percentage of magic weapons on each treasure table. This is useful if you want to know, for instance, how big of a deal it is that gargoyles are resistant to, and lycanthropes are immune to, nonmagic weapons.

Magic Items Accumulated By Level

The discrepancy in numbers between my chart and Xanathar's may be nothing more than rounding error in the Xanathar chart: despite different estimates per level, we end up in the same place. Xanathar's Guide says that over 20 levels, a party will find 'roughly one hundred items.' According to my calculations, the party should find 101.8 items – pretty damn close to 100. 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. Let's take a 6-person party, three of whom are weapon users. Each character won't have his or her own major item until level 6, and all three weapon users won't have magical weapons until around level 9. That means that that CR 2 Wererat (or CR 1/2 jackalwere), will probably be an annoyance for some time.

Caveat: This treasure distribution doesn't match my game, and it probably doesn't match yours either. In fact, it may not match any real-world game at all. Are there any DMs who provide purely random treasure, and at the by-the-book rate of distribution? I know that when I DM, the monsters drop minor magic items at a much lower rate, and major items at a much higher rate. Another DM may be much stingier than me. But if you are striving to play by-the-book, this may help you.
