One of the many reason I wish we'd gotten a 'Fifth Edition' that is actually a cleaned-up progression of 4E and not something completely different.Honestly I don't know if a definitive guide is even possible with all the errata, Essentials, etc. It almost seems like It would be easier to splice together a Rules Cyclopedia like metaPDF of all the best material.For what it's worth, I'd submit: PHB1&2 for the core classes, DMG1&2,Rules Compendium for basic rules and good advice, the Monk, Knight, Slayer, and Mage from PHB3 and HOTWTF*, the Warforged race (Eberron), Swordmage class (Forgotten Realms), and MM3 and the two Monster Vaults for creatures. Along with notes that you only actually NEED one book from each category.*Heroes of The Whatever the F--k</blockquote>
