There are a lot of folks who have reverse-engineered the math in the new monster manual, and it seems like the benchmarks really haven’t...

Shadowdark isn't Official D&D. People tend to allow other games to experiment. But D&D? Only the stuff they instantly like

Fair enough. I have to play AD&D with modern players. They can grow the 2E Rules easier than 1E. I've played 1E but never run it...

RAW in 2024 Warlcok does not and cannot know who their patron is before level 3 and DM is not allowed to have them directly interact...
