D&D 5E 3/21 packet updates

[the Jester]

So the new packet released on 3/20 was missing the druidcraft spell, and they released a revised version of the spells and classes docs on 3/21.

The revised spells doc now includes druidcraft- the druidic equivalent of prestidigitation- and (presumably) any other spells that may have been missing from the 3/20 version.

However, the class doc is also revised- but I have no idea what was changed/added/subtracted from/to it. Has anyone gone through it with a fine-toothed comb to check yet? I'd appreciate not having to word-for-word compare it.

Thanks in advance!

Still missing Reverse Gravity and Dispel Evil--one of the two 5th-level paladin spells! They must not be doing any high level playtesting.

The other druid cantrip that was missing was "Spare From Dying," which was mentioned in the Druid class but not anywhere in the spells doc. Now the class feature refers to Cure Minor Wounds. (But CMW still doesn't appear on the Druid's spell list--much like Sound Burst doesn't appear on anyone's spell list, but the storm cleric gets it as a domain spell).

That's all I noticed.

More quality control before release is needed, really.


We are about to do lvl 9+ playtesting, so having the paladin spells would be really useful...

This happened last time when they said the new travel rules were included and they weren't. It seems like they don't know what the hell they are actually releasing, like... it gets muddled somewhere in line of transfer.

I found no mention of this packet update... not on the download page (still shows 20th March), not an email from WotC, not an announcement on www.wizards.com, and at first sight not even a discussion on WotC forums. Was this just "silently" updated? How did you notice the update?

Just asking to be sure before downloading the packet again...

Downloading it right now. I will try to find changes in classes pdf.

There's only one change in total: cicrle of the moon druids now get cure minor wounds instead of spare from dying.
