[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 6562927"] So I've been in and run a few 5th edition games now and in a couple of them some material from older editions has been imported. Sometimes it's imported in name only, a monster that doesn't exist in 5th, an item, a feat, converted to a significant degree as to mesh with 5th. Sometimes its well...not. Sometimes that's a problem, sometimes it isn't. Magical items up to the +3 level from older editions seem to import straight across because they're either pretty standard (+X dmg/+X dice, etc...) or their features are highly unique and pretty outside of any rules system. Class features and templates on the other hand seem to be straight-up bad, if not often contrary to the simple design elements of 5th. What are you experiences with importing older material? What converted easily? What didn't? What in particular did you or your table play with and how did that work? [/QUOTE]
