This campaign will take characters to greater heights of power, and greater depths of danger, than any Pathfinder Adventure Path to date!"  If you didn't want to be forced to reference MA, why buy that AP?Isn't the Bestiary a core book, like the MM Vol 1 was in 3e?  I think even the old D&D modules used monsters from later monster books as well, which would bring in Bestiary 2 and 3.  Who does that?  Certainly, they can restrict their adventures to nothing but the core rules and supplementary material they publish in their adventure.  Is there a stronger market for that?  What company is tapping in to it.  I'd rather refer to the monster in its own book, and the spell it cast in a second book, and not have to keep flipping pages in that module, myself.I do think the books should clearly indicate what else is required, and what else is referenced but is not essential.  Then the buyer can decide.  If your feelings are widely shared, presumably you'll buy something else (although I suspect the last AP you bought also referred to outside sources, the Bestiary at a minimum and likely more, and that didn't dissuade you from picking this one up).I see errata as a very different issue.  I don't use the errata with the rules - it is the rules.</blockquote>
