Elemental Adept isn't supposed to be good or strong. Its not a feat 99% of spellcasters will take, nor should it be Its a feat designed specifically and exclusively to elevate the sub-optimal, but popular playstyle of the dedicated elemental caster. It succeeds at that task well enough so...

You all are better off blocking and moving on than engaging with him.

This would've been so avoidable for GG - all they had to do was do nothing. They're going to drive away existing fans.

....Which is a way the rules could have been written. Instead of clearly saying "make a ruling on what makes sense", they give a convoluted procedure that when applied literally does not work.

I don't understand why "game rules should work when you play them as written" is a controversial opinion in ttrpg spaces

They want you to spend as much time on the dndbeyond website as possible. They want to keep you in that ecosystem for everything.

Thank you, glad its still up.

Has the original SA Compendium been removed from the D&D Website??? Looks like the old Errata docs have also been converted from downloaded PDFs to dndbeyond webpages only.

This alone makes any backwards compatibility worthless.

For 1st printing runs of a large RPG, the amount in here is honestly less than expected. 2014 D&D, pathfinder 2e, call of cthulhu, Edge of the Empire, Runequest - all of these have a similar or greater amount of errata items picked up after first printing.

excellent, thanks for sharing!!

lol, lmao even

I don't doubt this isn't an insignificant inventment of time/resources to do. That doesn't change that the longer WotC dawdles on completing it, the more they burn away any of the community goodwill the promises created in the first place.

Book of Many Things would be a much more frequently recommended product if you didn't also need to buy a $50 deck of cards you'll never use in order to get it

Exactly. I am assuming a malicious intent because they have consistently demonstrated malicious intent until community outrage and financial threats (dndbeyond cancellations) forced them to backtrack.

I imagine the point is the make it as painful as possible to continue with 2014 in order to push people into using 2024 without the bad press they'd get from completely removing it.

My point is emphasizing that Shadowdark does not have an Open License, and that it is far more restrictive than many other games in the same space, to clarify a post which indicated that the base game was.

....Which is something that doesn't require a license to do. Thats a supplement, not a derivative game. Open Game Licenses allow you to make derivative games.

You don't need a license to claim compatibility with a game system. You only need it if you want to use the specific logos that Kelsey created and provides in her creator kit.

Monte cook games is still doing this with their OGL 5e products, claiming literally everything inside as "Product Identity".
