I'm often coming across lots of books from older editions at used bookstores. Just the other day I came across three full shelves of stuff from 1e to 4e. Some are crazy overpriced, but some are actually pretty good deals, if only I'd use them.
That said, as I've only played 3.5 as a player before 5e, I don't know what books are crap and what books keep on giving. I was interested to know what some folks here think which of the older edition books might work best with 5e. And by that I mean from inspiration to adaptation, etc. Essentially what could I use from book X in a 5e game.
Now I know 5e is flexible so modules are more or less a given. Unfortunately I don't run across many modules or adventure books. Most are source books, core books and a few setting books.
In your opinion what are some of the books I should keep an eye out for? What would be worth my while?
