D&D 5E WotC has updated the Hadozee glide ability on DnDBeyond

[Ruin Explorer]

But not the first opportunity for Errata since they purchased Beyond

Oh definitely, that's what is particularly interesting here, to suddenly go "all in" on errata, not just fixing the stuff that was causing a kerfuffle, but a bunch of other stuff too.

Makes me think Spelljammer has a rapid reprint and maybe a buyback from distributors.

Because reprints have been when they errata in the past

You say that it was a 24 hour delay… I say they put it out but it might* have been becuse of the backlash.

Nope.

Because it came at the same time as the announcement explaining the errata. You don't write an announcement explaining things if you are just making it public to counteract backlash from trying to keep the errata private.

I don't see any sign they're doing a buyback, just changing future printings.

I guess we'll see.

Interestingly, they changed the mechanic of the Glide ability for the Hadozee PC race in "Astral Adventurer's Guide", but kept it unchanged for the Hadozee NPCs in "Boo's Astral Menagerie"...

So enemy Hadozee can still do Mach 2 when gliding...

That seems on brand. WotC has abandoned any sense of parallelity between PCs and NPCs at this point.

Ah yes but you see, enemy Hadozee can't wear Plate mail armor while gliding!

Imagine the look of horror when a Full Metal Gorilla comes flying from the sky and crashing down on a fool's head ala Final Fantasy's Dragoon job!

I had no interest in playing a hadozee until I read this!

Well there goes the motivation for my new character Stuka the Dauntless, Hadozee Paladin

I like the aircraft references.
