If a subclass appears in the 2024 rules and you’re making a 2024 character, you can’t use the 2014 version of that subclass. Same with feats, same with species, and any other element that basically as soon as it appears in its new form, that new form replaces the old form .......If something doesn’t appear in the 2024 Player’s Handbook, you are welcome to pair it with a thing that does ......  Let’s say you pick an older subclass that maybe had a different level progression, the new subclass ability rules make it clear you get all of the features from any earlier levels ...... So, the Wizard’s new 3rd level subclass ability would specify that players can add the features from the Necromancer subclass that would have activated at 2nd level if players opt to use the Necromancer"[URL unfurl="true"]https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/dungeons-dragons-backwards-compatibility-2024-players-handbook/[/URL]</blockquote>
