[QUOTE="OniDaimyo, post: 7071985, member: 6863160"] I really like Eberron, however the UA article on it was frankly, crap. Warforged are far too weak and Keith Baker himself seems to think so and made up his version of the race for 5e. The biggest problem I have though is Dragonmarks. The fact that it takes a feat to take a mark AND unless you are playing a variant human, no one can take a feat until 3rd level just does not work for me or for Eberron. Eberron was created hand in hand with the 3.5 rules and 5e seems to forget that with the Unearthed Arcana article. My other thing I wanted to ask is, in Ravenloft did they keep up with the xenophobic nature of villagers and such? I really hope they did. Ravenloft is a harsh place. You should NEVER have a damn half-orc, Tiefling, Dragonborn or monstrous races walking around talking to people and not being attacked on sight or avoided. There was a 3/3.5 ed rule that anything other than humans had penalties to interact with most villagers. Even the sexy elf isn't trusted! However, the less human you looked the more penalty you had, up to a -5. I liked this and I hope 5e did not wuss out on this. What about the rules for familiars and such becoming evil and loyal "to a fault?" your familiar won't hurt you BUT if another party member even annoys you the familiar might start to try to harm or otherwise mess with said party member? Do the lords of Ravenloft still automatically know where any LG paladins are? (Since now for some reason Paladins can be ANY alignment...), do evil characters still get seduced by Ravenloft to do evil things and maybe become lords of the land? [/QUOTE]
