Ninja'd. Or I failed my perception and/or investigate roll.

WotC has posted two new errata documents - one for the D&D 5th Edition Monster Manual, and one for the Dungeon Master's Guide. These accompany the already existing errata for the Player's Handbook, and the Sage Advice column by Jeremy Crawford. Note that later printings of the books already fix these items - check to see if your book says "This printing includes corrections to the first printing" near the bottom of the credits page. These errata are compiled in two short PDFs. Here are the links you need!

• Sage Advice Compendium (v.1.05)
• Player's Handbook Errata
• Monster Manual Errata
• Dungeon Master's Guide Errata

Other official documents from WotC:

• D&D Basic Rules
• D&D Spell List
• Monsters by Challenge Rating
• D&D Monsters By Type
• Magic Items by Rarity
• Conversions to 5th Edition D&D

Mage Furnishings (p. 300). A roll of 73 produces a sextant, not a sexton.

2 Missing Errata I expected to see:

-Couatl's proficiency bonus doesn't line up with its CR. (My suspicion is that it was designed as a higher CR creature, then they dropped the CR to 4 so it could be summoned with Conjure Celestial, because CR 4 just seems too low for everything it does anyway).
-Random urban encounter table on DMG 114 isn't distributed based on probability--they used a d12+d8 roll, but the encounters are just alphabetized. I'd really like errata for this one, as fixing it would involve a lot of work and arbitrary decisions on my part that I shouldn't have to do.

The arbitrary nature of Random encounter tables should be removed.

Arbitrary meaning 'random' in this context.

If you don't like random encounter tables, then they obviously weren't designed for you. But for those of us who want and like them, they should be functional.

Yeah, I looked at the threads, but I figured this one was a better one to go with it because the other one was a question from a while ago, and you have to wade through all the pre-discussion from before the docs were up to get to the current discussion.

After reviewing the table in question I propose fixing it with an entry for "Harlot" at the #1 spot then rolling a d20 for randomization. Thus making the table functional, more authentic, and non-alphabetized.

Which may also explain why no one knows where the Shire is -- halflings reroll '1's.
