[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 9508689, member: 7635"] No. Everyone said you didn't need to get rid of your old 5e collection because they would work with the new books with some minor adjustments. Anyone with half a brain knew you weren't going to be able to run a 2014 wild shape on a 2024 druid, that feats, backgrounds and subclasses would need some conversion and that the new PHB would overwrite the old one. People whose agenda was to de-legitimize it to being an incompatible 6e kept trying to find the smallest corner cases to prove that it's a new game, WotC are liars and 5e is dead. The reasonable stance still remains: if an option has not been revised in the new books, the old book version is usable with a little work. You can still use shadow sorcery or play a tabaxi or take the gunner feat. You can still run Curse of Strahd or Wild Beyond the Witchlight and you can still play in Strixhaven or Eberron. But please, continue to remind everyone that since warlocks get their abilities at 3rd level instead of first, we're clearly playing 6e and must burn all our 5e books to prove it. [/QUOTE]
