[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 8105245, member: 54629"] This. These sorts of errors and oversights were more understandable / forgivable when WotC was spitting books out every month. Now they have way more time to work on them and fine tune them. They make a big deal out of quality over quantity, but it doesn’t always show. I love 5e, and I think WotC did a fantastic job with the rule set. I’ve just been somewhat disappointed with the support they’ve given the game since its initial release. It’s not because I think WotC sucks and the designers are all hacks. It’s because, given the slower release schedule, I feel the products they put out aren’t as good as they could be. Some are truly awful (like Dragon Heist) but others are really good and, with just a bit more fine tuning, could have been truly excellent. For instance, I love SCAG, I just wish it had more content in it (including all the stuff I got to playtest that didn’t make the cut). I love Volo’s, but I wish the playable races had gotten more attention, as some are OP and others are UP and WotC just slapped a “use at your own discretion” warning on them. In my mind, Rime seems like a good adventure that could have been even better if they’d just take the time to address a few things that they left vague. [/QUOTE]
