Well, that's always been the Monk's problem: standard array and MAD don't go together very well. I let my players use a more flexible point buy system, or otherwise roll stats. Either way, I generally help them find a way to get at least a 20 and an 18 (or even another 20) by level 10...

Why so low? The Monk can take ASIs to get both DEX and WIS up to 20, and then have an AC of 20 without magic items, right?

The book is amazing. The closest thing there is to a 5e PH2. My friends and I are are starting a campaign with primarily materials from this book, and so far, it is a TON of fun.

Doesn't the spellcaster eventually lose control over the monster? Then you literally have a flesh-eating zombie or murderous skeleton wandering around. Maybe some individual Necromancers could be trusted to animate responsibly, but widespread use of these spells would definitely lead to a bunch...

It's crazy, because some of these people were just recently interviewed on DnD's YouTube channel.

Don't get me wrong, I always loved 3e. And it's difficult to learn. That's not necessarily a criticism, just an observation about its complexity. Any RPG system has to find a balance between simplicity and completeness, between flexibility and consistency. I think 5e has become popular because...

I agree that 5e's design is a big part of it. I remember introducing some people to 3e back in the day but it never stuck, because it was too complicated. 5e, for its shortcomings, is incredibly elegant and easy to learn.

Yeah, I think the PHB could come out that day. But not the DMG and MM too, right?

Nah, they already said no printers could handle that.

The same day as the Vecna Adventure? I'll bet you that's an error.

Honestly, I could see them doing white and gold covers, like they did for the limited edition rules expanded box set. Maybe that was the practice run for their new style, in the same way that MPMM was a practice run for their new monster stats blocks.

I like this guy.

Oh, I haven't! I want to compare the two now.

Yes! It's my favorite homebrew Witch class I've ever seen. Even better than Mage Hand's.

You see the Witch class yet? It's awesome

My bet is that it will be Rune Knight, in order to have at least one Giant-flavored subclass in the PHB.

Probably Psi Warrior or Rune Knight. I personally want Psi Warrior.
