    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Monk"

    If no one else has started, I'll see what I can write up after the video's over. May take a bit - want to go through it again with a fine-tooth comb.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Monk"

    Can't make any promises on providing a detailed breakdown like @Kobold Stew has been doing for previous videos, but figured I'd at least get this thread up and running. Video should go live at the top of the hour (9 AM PDT).

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Monk"

    Video Breakdown Base Monk Class Notes Knew monk was going to get a lot of attention - both satisfaction scores and actual play numbers have historically tended to be a bit low Similar to ranger, monk is largely a "new class" Martial Arts feature at 1st level Monk weapons have been broadened...

    D&D 5E (2024) More Dragon Redesign Clues

    Of a different mindset, myself - if they're going to do another dragon-centric adventure, I'd rather they do it in a different setting that uses dragons in different ways. Maybe Eberron? An expedition to Argonessen, or perhaps meddling in Prophecy as (or against) agents of the Chamber?

    D&D 5E (2024) More Dragon Redesign Clues

    I seem to recall something about copper dragons being known to foster wyrmlings of other dragon types, presumably in the hopes that their influence might keep the chromatic ones (in particular) from turning out evil. Honestly don't recall the source for that, though... I'd imagine something 3e...

    The recent Spells preview video gave us a shot of what seems to be the redesigned Brass Dragon, which I don't think we've seen yet:

    D&D 5E (2024) Green Dragon First Look on Gizmodo

    On another note, unless I'm mistaken, the recent Spells preview video gave us a shot of the redesigned Brass Dragon, which I don't think we've seen before:

    D&D 5E (2024) Green Dragon First Look on Gizmodo

    Not yet, to my knowledge. At present, it's all snippets from teasers scattered across a variety of sources (articles, videos, etc.). A fair amount of what we've seen thus far was collected in this thread from a while back, though: D&D (2024) - More Dragon Redesign Clues And according to the...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Players Handbook reveal: "New Crafting Rules"

    "Can Mending reattach a severed limb?" "No." "Is a corpse an object? Sighs "...Yeah." "Mend, Revivify." "A minute cast time is too long-" "Gentle Repose, Mend, Revivify."

    A Peek at Quests from the Infinite Staircase

    Certainly. Religions that are still actively practiced today, such as Hinduism, should be off the table, in my opinion. But ancient religions such as the Greco-Roman, Norse, and Egyptian pantheons, that spent centuries or more without being actively practiced and were long "dead" for all...

    A Peek at Quests from the Infinite Staircase

    I think there's an important distinction between "they shouldn't touch on IRL deities without plenty of cultural sensitivity consultation first" and "they shouldn't touch on IRL deities at all". I'm all for the former. The latter would be highly disappointing. If taken to the extremes (i.e. no...

    D&D 5E (2014) Quests from the Infinite Staircase TOC and Zargon.

    Don't know about "confirmed" - I imagine there's at least a chance lillends could be saved for a hypothetical upcoming "Manual of the Planes"-style book - but it certainly seems likely that we'll be seeing them properly in the near(-ish) future. Though given their canonical ties to the Infinite...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: "New Wizard"

    I think the idea of conjuring up illusory creatures that are nonetheless still dangerous is quite thematic, actually. Reminds me of a certain witch from a visual novel I adore. Runs away before Beatrice the Golden can drag him back to Rokkenjima

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: "New Wizard"

    Looks at '14 illusionist Hmm, fair enough... Obviously hadn't paid too much attention to the existing illusionist subclass. Regardless, they definitely managed to sell me on maybe giving one a try. Adds to mountain of unplayed character concepts I'm shocked. Shocked, I say.
