Complete Adventurer is Rogues/Bards book!

[Ottergame]

Nah, if they produced a 4 volume megabook, they'd have to call it "Complete Complete"

Well...aren't they? I would hardly say that Complete Warrior was only a fighter book. Otherwise why would there be Arcane Strike? Same with Complete Divine. It had stuff for every single class. Thats why I like these more than the class books. They are themed to combat, magic types, and so on, but not in a single class sort of way. They are much broader.

Well, Complete Warrior was mostly about fighting, and it was mainly meant for the warrior classes. Complete Divine and Complete Arcane are obviously meant mainly for the spellcasting classes. "Adventurer" on the other hand doesn't explain anything about what the book is about - it doesn't say it's related to skill-based characters, or bards & rogues, or anything in particular. A meaningless title.

It's not a big deal. Let them call it whatever, I probably won't buy it anyway. But I'd at least take a second look at "Complete Wimp".

Sarcasm and conspiracy theories aside...

If we stuffed everything into one book, it'd be 750-ish pages.

As a 400 page HC ranges $39.99 or more, that would retail at almost $70.00+ at miniumum.

Image THAT uproar if THAT had been announced.

I'd rather them announce that it will be released like that (with all corrections errata and such) after all 4 have been published.

Then you can buy the one you want, or buy the single huge hardback of all of them. And then I can get the big book and give away my old ones (as I tend to do )

Suddenly I wish it called the Complete Fighter so this one could be called Complete Lover. (But then, that book already came out...) But Complete Lover sounds better than Complete Wimp.

I was hoping for Complete Rat Bastard

That would be the DMG companion book. Why should the players get all the options?

Complete Commoner!

Anybody notice this site mentions the class Spellthief as being in the Complete Adventurer in one place and the Complete Arcane in another?

Anyway, it appears from this site that the Complete Arcane will contain the Warmage, the Warlock, and I'm guessign the Wu Jen classes.

The Complete Adventurer appears to contain the Scout and Spellthief, plus one other baed on previous patterns

Thanks for the compiliation, Leapingshark

As I said, my guess is the that the Complete Arcane does not contain the Spellthief, but rather the Wu Jen. But we'll see.
