There’s a new way to craft in Dungeons & Dragons with the advent of the 2024 Dungeon Master’s Guide. The new printing of the DMG brings about a great deal of new mechanics, but also revamps and reestablishes many of those that already existed. One concept getting a total makeover in the new version of the Fifth Edition is that of crafting. Crafting has always been a part of 5e, but the rules around it were previously a little too loose, requiring only the requisite tools, proficiencies, and DM discretion. This made it difficult to craft specific items without a lot of improvisation.
