[QUOTE="Smeelbo, post: 4657394, member: 81898"] Answer: [U][I]You[/I][/U] do. Seriously, you need to read the entire thing, backwards and forwards, and beat your head against it until mistakes are the exception. I've been reading the books off and on since they came out, but only in the last month or so, after actually playing and dozens of re-reads, is it all making sense. It has changed my opinion of 4E entirely. The framework is very good, a vast improvement over the framework of 3.x, and while numerous problems exist, I can tell you right now that 4.5 is going to seriously [U]rock[/U]. There are numerous scaling issues, and as more books come out, increasingly chaotic interactions. I expect after a few years that 4E will come crashing down in a horrible collapse, but what will rise from those ashes will be awesome. So [I][U]learn[/U][/I] the PHB. Your groupmates will thank you.
