[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9680117, member: 54629"] Yes, with the assumption that the reader / listener intends to use the 2024 rules as their baseline. It's probably advice aimed at new DMs who are just getting into the game with the 2024 revision. "Default to the 2024 rules and only use 2014 stuff that hasn't been updated yet" is solid advice for beginners. Think of it as being the DM equivalent to the new player friendly recommendations in the PHB (e.g. [I]"You know two cantrips of your choice from the Druid spell list. [B]Druidcraft and Produce Flame are recommended.[/B]"[/I]) More experienced DMs know that mixing and matching both rulesets isn't going to cause any major problems. It's not like WotC is gonna send the Pinkertons to your door for using the 2014 version of the Sentinel feat in your otherwise 2024 game. ;) [/QUOTE]
