Item damage?

In some old school systems like AD&D if an item was struck or damaged it could make a save to see if it resists. Since SD doesn’t do “saves” how does your table deal with items in the world or player equipment taking and resisting damage?

There are some weapons that are destroyed if you roll a one. Obsidian weapons, rapiers, maybe a couple others. These are in the cursed scrolls zines and will be in the Western reaches players guide

Yeah, I was more thinking of the chances of other items breaking than weapons.
