Monks, fighters, and warlocks being weak in low encounter tables is new?No. The 5e design team has mostly ignored these problems for a long while.While they go out their way to hype up Tavern Brawling EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY GET.The most generous explanation for their focus on some aspects while ignoring other aspects until forced by massive survey stress is that the 5e designers in their home game play very different from a lot of the community. Especially from the massive influx of new fans The second most logical explanation is corporate pressure on them to keep ignoring the complaints of the 5e core books in order to not create additional bad press on the highest selling books of the edition. And the 2024 edition of the core books is an excuse to insert fixes they wand to include for a while and were sitting on but didn't in order to keep the 2014 Printing from looking outdated and flawed.I choose the former due to the glee that Crawford tends to have on game aspects that aren't that powerful and his constant reminds of missing obvious powergameable aspects of 5e.</blockquote>
