You know what every monster's AC is as long as you what level it is.

I would prefer black & white for core D&D books (that 2nd Ed blue really put me off), colours cheapen (I guess ironically) the books for me.

So, should that include Clerics and Druids (as they both use magic)?

Ever since playing the 1st play-test packet, as is, we've been very into it, and, as a side-bonus, we find this the easiest edition so far to convert/drop stuff in. i really dig the 5th Ed chassis, after that, everything else is extra (want to play a 3rd Ed Incarnate, fine, a 1st Ed Monk, or...

What I'm seeing is monster attacks being based on ability scores (good), but with a semi-arbitrary +1 (drow) or +2 (gelatinous cube, hobgoblins) thrown in here or there.

In the 3rd Ed Arms and Equipment Guide they have rules for using them as "mounts".

Yeah, with Savage Species I made an Anthropomorphic Chicken Monk.

I'm wary of a catch-all "magic user" (though i have no problem calling the wizard that), part of class identity for me is the way they cast/use magic.

Not sure why they removed the +2 bonus that was in the 1st play-test packet, a minotaur now needs to roll a 16 to hit a mountain dwarf in plate with a shield. I've added it back in (minotaur is +6 to hit, again).

1) I thought it stated magic weapons and armour can go to +3? 2) Belt of Storm Giant Strength (29).

In the film Mask he used heat, a cold stone for blue, hot for red.

Yes, i'm another one for 1 Turn (10 minutes, pfft) is not enough to awaken abilities in a magic item, it should be deeper than that.

Total, it's currently drifting into Origami Lore territory.

So, mountain dwarf in +3 plate, with a +3 shield, an Ioun Stone, a Ring of Protection, and a Shield spell is AC 30. And +16 to hit (+4 fighter, +9 Str, +3 weapon).

Maybe even less, magic items should not be expected.

It seems 20 is the limit, but if the DM wants to throw in Storm Giant Str, bam, done.

Okay, now I'm even more intrigued (just like I love pre-Islam Persian religion/mythology).

Ah, cool, I can dig it, so Storm Giants are amongst the strongest creatures in the multiverse, the only thing stronger are things like Thor (30 special *winks*).

I think at this point the monk is not the issue, are you okay? You just come off as a bit passive-aggreisve and bitter, did you have a traumatic experience with the 1st Ed monk? Mod Note: Ladies and gents, this is a classic example of making a discussion personal. Don't do this unless you're...

That sounds right up my alley and down my street, thanks, I'll check it out. The warrior-monk sounds intriguing, sort of like a templar?
