Is there any chance that, after they're finished with the PHB UAs, they'll stagger the release of the MM and DMG UAs? Like, release MM UA, two weeks later release DMG UA, two weeks later do MM survey, two weeks later do DMG survey, two weeks later do second MM UA, etc.

This. I'm still in the "maybe" camp, but I couldn't care less about the reviews. I'm still waiting to see how the rest of the playtest shakes out before I make up my mind. But that wasn't an option in the poll, so I didn't answer.

Considering @HorrorRogue was looking for advice on how to create a Monster Slayer Ranger now, proposing an idea for a potential change to the Ranger that you dreamed up is not very helpful to their build options.

I've seen a suggestion by rpgbot.com that, rather than using good & evil, more accurate terminology would be selfless & selfish.

This is the main reason I have yet to buy the game. I know as soon as I buy it, my 11 year old daughter is going to want to play it and I don't know if there's a way to turn this stuff off. We'll have to stick to Solasta, where we can each create 2 characters in the party and play it together.

I still say CON would make sense for a Sorcerer's casting stat. After all, your magical power comes from within your body. As for Warlocks, I never had a problem with them being CHA based since they gain their spellcasting by pleading with a Patron to give them power. Persuasion checks use...

I'm certainly no expert in polling, but it seems like, rather than using "Dissatisfied, Slightly Dissatisfied, Slightly Satisfied, and Satisfied," they should have gone with "Dissatisfied, Needs Revision, Needs Minor Tweak, Satisfied." That would clear up some of the confusion as to what the...

Or they could go back to the old method where, once you take a second class, you had to keep levelling the second class until you had the same number of levels in each class. And, thereafter, neither class could be more than one level higher than the other. That would certainly fix the dipping...

Gaze of Two Minds only works on humanoids. I'm pretty sure there is nothing in the Conjure X or Summon Y spells that would be considered humanoid. Even fey creatures, like Dryads, are specifically listed as "fey," not "humanoid (fey)."

Most people don’t realize that MacGyver was a Ranger ;)

I think a better example than dropping a preset bear trap on the ground would be improvising a snare on the spot. That seems like an ability that would be Ranger exclusive (or maybe shared with the Druid, or a specific Druid subclass).

Groups don’t need to use the ‘24 Species. They can combine the ‘14 Races with the’24 Classes. Or so I keep hearing…

Move Heightened Metabolism up to Level 5 🤷‍♂️ It's not so much a replacement, as it is a power shift.

Just a completely off-the-cuff thought: take Stunning Strike away from the base Monk and give it to the Warrior of the Hand as one of its "Open Hand Technique" options.

I can't speak for everybody here, but I don't work for WOTC, so there isn't much I can do. Besides, if I did work for WOTC, I would push for them to eliminate multiclassing altogether. And that would make me a very unpopular person.

I have no problem with BIFTs. I find them useful for players who aren't good at, or just struggle at, roleplaying. Some players make choices when they create their character as to how that character will behave. But once the campaign starts, they inadvertently revert back to their own...

This is from page 64 of the PHB, the fourth paragraph under Druid:

My favorite dark Fighter is the Doom Knight, which is based on the WoW Death Knight (but that is already a creature in the Monster Manual), that I made and am currently playtesting.

One thing I don't like about these surveys is the vagueness of some questions. For example, they have us rate "Spellcasting." What about spell casting am I rating? How the slots are doled out? Spells Known vs Spells Prepared? Class Lists vs Arcane/Divine/Primal? Full caster vs Half Caster...
