Yup. But they probably found that you might as well just die if you have worse than -5 to all d20 rolls!

A leak showed that it is probably - 2 per level of exhaustion and - 5ft movement.

Oof, bit nasty, but I think I still like it. Do we suspect that it still affects save DCs? Because that was the big thing that made the new exhaustion pop for me

Edit: Amusingly, I have a homebrew from PointyHat for a Monk that deals exhaustion on hits that I HATED because of how useless it was, and these changes to exhaustion are making me look at it with a new appreciation.

Unclear. The leaker was not very adapt at leaking... or knowing rules.
