[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9441809, member: 54629"] No, it's not any different to what they said in the changelog. They've just misread the room and are responding to the wrong thing. And no, they aren't keeping the 2014 stuff in the tooltips - that will all get yanked over the period of the next six months as the three 2024 books are released. You'll still be able to use 2014 content in the character sheet, but with limitations, and none of the tooltips will refer you to the corresponding 2014 rules. Because it's an easy example, you'll still be able to make a 2014 warlock with a genie patron, but if you take any invocation that grants a spell, that invocation's tooltip will show you the 2024 version of the spell. If you want the 2014 version, you'll have to look it up in the compendium. In March of 202[B]5[/B], the tooltip will show you the 2024 version of the wraith. Before February of 2025, it will show you the 2014 version. The tooltip will only show you the 2014 version of a monster if there is no 2024 equivalent (so for monsters that are unique to [I]Curse of Strahd[/I], like Strahd himself ... until he too gets an update to 2024, I expect. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they do another release of [I]Curse of Strahd [/I]to bring it in line with the 2024 rules. I mean, it's even featured in the examples of play in the 2024 PHB!) No, we're not all 2014 or die. A lot of us are just "we don't want to be made to switch before we're ready"! Who switches rules in the middle of a campaign, especially when it's not their own choice to do so? And why would anyone want to switch to an incomplete ruleset that will continue to change over the course of six months? [/QUOTE]
