[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 6662115, member: 37579"] A focus on higher level threats is pretty much a must, along with more templates and customization options. I'd like to see a limit on the number of new dragons, devils, demons, and giants. Every MM seems to want to tack on a few of those, and 99% of the time they're superfluous. There should be some more NPCs of course. There's a few archetypes missing, like the monk, skald, tavern brawler, innkeeper, as well as some higher level variants like a head priest, knight commander, high druid. I got into the game with 2e and the [I]Monstrous Manual[/I], so there's a lot of monsters I think of as "classics" that haven't seen a lot of love in the past. Allip Aquatic elf Assassin vine Astral dreadnought Aurumvorax Barghest Bodak Boneclaw Brain Mole Carbuncle Catoblepas Cave fisher Cooshee Crabman Crimson mist Dark Creeper & dark stalker Deamons/ Yugoloths Demon, Bebilith Derro Devourer Disenchanter Dragon spawn Feyr (or fihyr) Firboolg Flail Snail Formians Froghemoth Giant, death Gibberling Girallon Grippli Hatori Huecuva Hippocampus Ixitxachiti Leprechaun Living Wall Mohrg Mongrelman Necrophidius Nerid Neogi Neothelid Nightshade Nymph Pech Phase spider Pheonix Quickling Retriever Shadar-kai Shocker Lizard Sylph Sons of kyuss/ larval mage Tasloi Trapper Triton Vargouille Vegepygmy Violet Fungus Yellow musk creeper That's a good 60-odd monsters. Which seems like a heck of a lot, being a good 100 pages or more. But still only a third of a book. Yikes!
