D&D (2024) Speculation on the next UA in April

[mellored]

It’s too soon for another attempt at Druid. They need time to process feedback and internally test new options. This version whiffed pretty hard.

They whiffed hard enough to not need detailed and nuanced feedback.

Better to try again sooner, and get detailed feedback on something that is at least in the right ballpark.

Then work though the details.

I think that a bunch of the weapon abilities from BG3 might make it into the Warrior group UA. It'll be a taste test to see how those things are received in tabletop.

Well, we have some info today:

The next UA will be the biggest next, including a look at all six classes.

So, all three Warrior and Mage Classes plus a Subclass, and apparently a weapons properties table, and only Warriors will be able to use certain Properties.

On weapon properties

A new weapon table will be coming the next UA. They've been play testing the new weapon options internally for awhile.

The weapon chart includes a new column called "weapon mastery."

Mastery properties are special proeprties in a weapon that allow you to have a class feature to unlock them. So if a wizard picks up a dagger, they can't use the 'nick" property. A fighter with the same dagger can unlock that ability. They're a little cantrip-like in their effects.

Each of the warrior classes work wiht the mastery property a little differently. Monks can unlock it in simple weapons because they are the mastter of common objects. So if you unlock the club mastery, you can slow someone in addition to doing damage.

"Flex" lets you use they can use damage two handed damage one handed.

WotC it is still, after over 25 years, not too late to give these guys a non-awful name. You can do it!

Where is all this information about the next packet coming from?

Crawford and Perkins gave a preview of the next packet during the summit, brimmed did a great job writing it down: all 6 remaining Classes are in the next packet with their base Subclass, and they went over what makes Warriors and Mages different a little bit.
