[QUOTE="Kalidrev, post: 5098613, member: 84005"] The difference, KD, is that the Assassin, from the get, was labeled as OFFICIAL material once it was released in DnDi, and is one of the few "goodies" that only DnDi subscribers would get (since it will not appear in any other publication other than DnDi). It was fully fleshed out and was never released as playtest material. It's as official as is possible for it to be, since the class itself will never be featured in hardback form. The others are still not official material yet since they have not been officially published, and even the RPGA will not allow them yet. Here's another way to look at this: Look inside of the Character Builder in the Clas "tab": Each of the Player's Handbooks have their own section when they are official material. Currently, the PHB and the PHB2 have their own section, while all of the PHB3 material is still listed with the Artificer, the Assassin, and the Swordmage. When it becomes official material, all of the PHB3 items will fall under its own category, much like the PHB and the PHB2. Until we see that, I don't see it as being official. Until we get the whole kit'n'kaboodle (ie, both builds of a given class), I don't see it as official material. Though I could see an argument for why the one build could be official material without the other build needing to be present, it's just not my opinion. [/QUOTE]
