D&D 5E Finally

[Guide16]

Ranger 5e

What does natural explorer do?

 

[Dastion]

Someone mentioned 'Drow Weapon Training'. Is that any different than the normal 'Elven Weapon Training'(Proficiency w/ Long/Short Swords & Bows)?

One guesses (seriously) hand crossbows and (facetiously) scimitars.

Rapiers, shortswords, hand crossbows.

My brother pointed out that Weird is on the Wizard spell list. Is it the boring 3e "save or die" version, or the fun 2e "mental duel against your greatest enemy" version?

Guys, respectfully, a lot of the questions at this point are asking things that WotC has already revealed, either in the free Basic D&D download you should already have:

http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/basicrules

or in actual screenshots that were helpfully compiled for us here:

In particular, the proficiencies (saves, weapons, armor, skills, tools) for most classes are there.

And a big round of applause for the kind souls who have the PHB and are being way more tolerant of repetitive questions than I would be.

More importantly, do the skeleton and the zombie in the PHB have the same stats as in the Starter Set?

The PHB and Starter Set entries are identical.

 

[Bumamgar]

The PHB and Starter Set entries are identical.

That is excellent news. The last thing I wanted was to have multiple, slightly different, stats for the same monster. This leads me to believe that when they get added to the Basic PDF and ultimately the Monster Manual, they will continue to be the same (although I expect the Monster Manual to have several common variations, expanded flavor text, as well as a nice picture).

Area spell, save every round or take damage, concentration up to 1 minute.

How does the Sorceror(dragon magic vesion) compare to the Wizard? Who do you think is more powerful in combat?
