My realistic expectations/hopes: The Tasha’s + Xanathar’s combo book that brings four more updated subclasses per class, along with the Species found in Monsters of the Multiverse. A reworking of Monsters of the Multiverse that is just the bestiary (updated to 2024 layout standards) along...

Definitely can’t wait to get this.

We know how character creation works in the starter set, broadly speaking. The set will have a class “board” with level 1 stuff all ready made, and you pick a species and background card to modify it. It’s emulating a board game with easy set up. So you can make a new combo each time for a...

Interesting one of the cards says “Lizardfolk Warden,” which isn’t a stat block in the MM 2024/5. Didn’t expect the starter set to include new monsters.

I’ve run it thrice now: once as written, once where I combined the four villains into a single version where they all raced each other and the characters, and then once as a intro to the larger campaign I’m currently running. Each time I made a few more tweaks than the time before, and while I...

I’ve run most of the 5e adventurers at least once, and my three favorite books for this edition are Curse of Strahd, Tomb of Annihilation, and Waterdeep: Dragon Heist. Edit to add: and Lost Mines. I forgot about starter sets when constructing my original comment.

They already said the book will include 2024 revised Species of the Eberron options and a new Half Elf.

My guess is there will be a Spellfire feat for non-Sorcerer characters (based on the Spellfire art they showed which clearly shows a Barbarian absorbing magic) and if so, then I 100% would bet that type of feat is locked to the Forgotten Realms setting, as Spellfire is a unique feature of the...

What more Bender vibes do they need? They all already get 2-3 elemental spells plus a few unique abilities. I think they are in a good place now, honestly. Keep in mind Genasi are unique. It’s not a single species that taps into any element, they have parents from specific elements. Now, I...

I hope this is true, but every time they talk about the FR books they specifically leave out species as added options, while species is one of the first things they mentioned for Eberron. I suspect we won’t get any species in FR, and instead we may get a line pointing to the Genasi in the...

I don’t think they will do it, but I’m curious if they will consider revising the Monster Stat Blocks in Rising for the bundle reprint to match the layout and style of the new Monster Manual. Clearly them packaging the two together is a signal that they plan on doing “Player” and “Dungeon...

Survival, not investigation. Investigation is figuring out how a trap works, not navigation. Survival is navigation.

I think people are approaching Moon Druids the wrong way. You’re not suppose to be the best melee combatant in the party. You’re suppose to be able to stand in the front while you’re both attacking and slinging spells. Sure, the Beast stats aren’t competing with a Fighter or Barbarians...

I’m talking about the first one with a piece of the Rod of Seven Parts. In the Underdark.

Both. We had about three encounters in that area before I got access to the MM2024 and the party survived but struggled. Then Friday we ran the "boss" of that particular section (being veague to avoid spoilers) using a 2024 monster and the party only managed to squeak out a win thanks to a very...

I’m running Eve of Ruin right now and my party got their asses kicked throughout the first dungeon with the rod piece. Idk why people are having issues but I haven’t had them so far. 🤷🏻‍♂️

My understanding is the last Lorwyn set changed it to be a regulard day and night cycle. So half the time you're in Lorwyn, and when night falls you are in Shadowmoor.

I am sure the updated MtG set, which was originally going to release this year to coincide with this book I am sure, would have explained some lore change that makes adventures there more possible. Either by introducing the idea of certain towns or enclaves that are somehow immune to the...

IIRC those books were among their best selling. But I could be wrong, I don’t have the stats at hand.

Tried the demo last night. Much improved over Solasta 1 in almost every aspect. The graphic enhancements and acting were particularly notable. The jump from Solasta 1 to Solasta 2, if the demo is an indicator, reminds me of the jump Larian made from DOS 1 to DOS 2. Not saying the Solasta devs...
