    D&D 5E (2014) Printer Errors in Some Monster Manuals

    A late one, as I received my copy from Amazon last week. They shipped me overseas a book that had the left half of the Kraken's face (along with the Kobold stat block's right half) ripped off. And I can't refund this because I signed the top of my book before I noticed the problem (plus the...

    D&D 5E (2014) I Don't Have the 5E DMG

    I'm waiting it for about 2 weeks or more. Oh, Amazon...

    D&D 5E (2014) I have the DMG!

    Does the Vorpal Sword still exists? If yes, is there any notable changes from the last playtest?

    D&D 5E (2014) Firearms, Explosives and You

    If I were on the design team, I'd lower the damage dice by 1 step, and treat all firearms as "magical" for the purpose of dealing with non-magical immunity/resistances. It would be narratively silly if a (non-magical) nuke/TNT couldn't wipe out stone golems because of some weird mana-physics...

    D&D 5E (2014) What Magic Item do you want to see most in the DMG?

    For me, Vorpal Swords, obviously. But it should perform at least as the last playtest version, not the hard-to-use 3.5 Edition version. Simply chopping headless baddies in half is a REVOLUTION compared to that frustrating "target-must-have-head-to-work" limit. Even better if it also ended up...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monsters You Miss

    Well, for me... - Aasimar - Formian - Lamia (the classic ones with snake under-torsos) - PHOENIX ...aside from these, none seems to come to my mind apparently.

    D&D 5E (2014) Stat buy-in points

    Personally, I like the playtest's idea of 30 point buy, 3 points more than the official version. It's a flat 30, ending on a zero, and Pathfinder-wise, a happy middle point between the 15 and 20 PB options. But alas, it's 27 in 5E. I think that the devs saw a potential 16 16 16 10 10 10 human...

    D&D 5E (2014) Issues with the "NPCs" in the MM and HotDQ (SPOILERS!)

    Just adding this. I believe I support the same idea as the OP here. It was when this Sir Oakley character from Madness at Gardmore Abbey "transformed" (..shudders) from a NPC statblock to a monster's that I parted with 4th edition forever, even when my very first D&D book was HotFL... So I had...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Basic PDF - 3 MB (They're released!)

    Wow, 3MB only? Now that's a pleasant surprise. Was hoping for it to be no bigger than 50MB or higher, after purchasing the BECMI Rules Encyclopedia PDF...
