Have you, in fact, READ the PHB?

Spells? What're Those?

When I bought the book I read it straight through until I got to the spells, then I skimmed.

Since then, I've read many of the sections multiple times, and I've probably read 90% of the spells at one point or another. For some reason I can't make myself sit down and read page after page of spell descriptions.

I've only skimmed the PHB, paying particular attention to skills, feats, and combat, but I've read the DMG in its entirety.

Read it cover to cover.

I happened to have a fairly long train ride to work at the time the PH came out.

PHB C to C taking notes! ...on what to change! (House Ruler in action) I have my rules and I forget a lot of what's official. I need to pore it over again.

DMG C to C. Not much new I could use there. I call it my "useless book." Made me miss 1e DMG.

MM only when I attempt to murder my PCs! (My druid uses it a lot also. My wizard, somewhat)

 

[Ziggy]

I read it when I first got it, from cover to cover.

After that I've reread the most important sections (combat, magic) several times, each time noticing small issues and clarifications that I didn't notice on the previous readings.

I thoroughly read every rpg supplement I get, cover to cover, at least 2 or 3 times, just to grab small details I missed the first time.

In fact, the only 3e/D20 book I own that I havent given that thorough a read is the Psi Handbook, it just didn't interest me enough to read it all the way through.

 

[Berandor]

I read the PHB cover to cover, as well as the MM/DMG. Doesn't look good for a DM to haven't ever heard of a particular rule, I think.

Still, I always forget undead are immune to crits

Damn,
