# Rope *Adventuring gear* - **Cost**: 1 gp - **Weight**: 5.0 lbs. As a [Utilize](/Rules/Source/actions.md#Utilize) action, you can tie a knot with Rope if you succeed on a DC 10 Dexterity ([Sleight of Hand](/Rules/Source/skills.md#Sleight%20of%20Hand)) check. The Rope can be burst with a successful DC 20 Strength ([Athletics](/Rules/Source/skills.md#Athletics)) check. You can bind an unwilling creature with the Rope only if the creature has the [Grappled](/Rules/Source/conditions.md#Grappled), [Incapacitated](/Rules/Source/conditions.md#Incapacitated), or [Restrained](/Rules/Source/conditions.md#Restrained) condition. If the creature's legs are bound, the creature has the [Restrained](/Rules/Source/conditions.md#Restrained) condition until it escapes. Escaping the Rope requires the creature to make a successful DC 15 Dexterity ([Acrobatics](/Rules/Source/skills.md#Acrobatics)) check as an action. *Source: Player's Handbook (2024) p. 228.
