D&D 5E - Full List of Monsters in Mordenkainen Presents Monsters of the Multiverse

Mordenkainen Presents Monsters of the Multiverse contains revamped stat blocks for 260 monsters previously published in previous Dungeons & Dragons 5E books. The list was compiled by YouTuber Bob Worldbuilder based on some blurry screenshots originally shared by Nerd Immersion (see the video...

www.enworld.org

While reprinted, these races have all been updated to the current standard used by WotC for D&D races used in Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, including a free choice of ability score increases (increase one by 2 points and another by 1 point; or increase three by 1 point), and small races not suffering a movement speed penalty.

The video below from Nerd Immersion delves into the races in more detail.

Does your wife stand at a mighty 91 centimeters (approximately 36 freedom units) in height versus your astonishing 182 centimeters (approximately 72 freedom units) in height?

Unsurprising to anyone, no.

Regarding damage-on-a-miss: if HP reflects not just physical flesh and bone but also fatigue or wear-and-tear or whatever, then wearing out an opponent even if you don't hit them makes sense. This could be reflected in HP losses, or Exhaustion.

Does your wife stand at a mighty 91 centimeters (approximately 36 freedom units) in height versus your astonishing 182 centimeters (approximately 72 freedom units) in height? Because these are the kind of proportional differences we're talking about when it comes to Small versus Medium creatures in D&D. And that will have a huge impact on how many kilometers (or freedom units) one walks per round.

It might if you assume a common physiological baseline. But that is not a safe assumption for fantasy creatures.

Sure is, but did you mean 4E Essentials?

I think I'm right too when I said 6E is probably coming sooner than you think. The span between the release of 3E and 3.5 was 2 years, 11 months. So, I'm sure that 3.5 was well in the works by early to mid 2002.

5e changed business plan, specifically around publishing speed. Hasbro stockholder calls have praised D&D every single call for years, unlike what happened with 3.0 to 3.5 (link below). We really are in a different situation then that refresh.

So, uh, what's the big deal with Warlords? I keep hearing people talk about them but I have no idea what's up.

Extremely popular 4E class, generally one of the better received parts of that edition. Notably absent in 5E and the Warlord-alikes in the edition have failed to scratch the itch

Count me another interested to see what they're doing with Aasimar and Shifters though

 

[Maxperson]

Which would be fine if it weren't the bludgeon used to keep me from having nice things.

It's not used to keep you from having anything, nice or not.

Tactics and teamwork.

The warlord played a lot with positioning and group support that really hadn't been a thing before or since. Imagine a battlemaster who could battlemaster every turn and also keep their allies on their feet and repositioning around the room.

My first 4e character was a warlord with a hammer (an weapon choice mattered, so the hammer meant you could knock dudes around). I would skeeball enemies into the path of our beefy boys and then allow them to beat on them even harder than normal. That's the kind of dynamic tactical combat I crave.

 

[Maxperson]

we can have our cake and eat it too... remember back during the playtest WotC promised dials and gages to adjust... you want more gritty do this you want more high action do that, you want more 4e flavor use this you want more 2e flavor do that....

Those optional rules are in the DMG. 5e isn't as modular as they made it out to be during the playtest, but they did include some of that for you.

Intended design goals are not eternal binding covenants, right? They couldn't make a game that did everything, for all people.

 

[Maxperson]

where is the advanced fighter?

It's called Battlemaster.

 

[Vaalingrade]

Battlemaster is basically 'we have advanced fighter at home'
