D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

I don’t know for sure if it is changed or not, as I haven’t played the Rogue yet personally. But I do know the player that did said they had “two uses.”

So either they changed it to scale with Prof bonus or the Rogue pregen had a 14 Int. I’ll try and find out tomorrow.

Also, I am 99% sure they got rid of the damage buff. Neither rogue in my games added extra damage when using this feature, outside sneak attack.

Thanks for replying!

Oh, do players still have a chance to gain a purple dragon like in the UA? My friends are curious about this. They love the purple dragon companion a lot.

Not from the Subclass. If there is any dragon companion feature it isn’t in this fighter anymore.

It's a bad news for me.But since there's an art of a PDW riding on an Amethyst Dragon, I wonder if there's some general Feats that gives character a Dragon mount. I heard that the background feat of PDW has nothing with the dragon mount,but is there a general feat for those who want to become a dragonrider? I'm curious about this.....would you have chance to ask this question to the designer?

So, it seems that now that we know the Backgrojnds are based on Faction and "region":

-Purple Dragon Squire and Harper are clearly tied to their respective factions.

- Ice Fisher = Icewind Dale & the North

- Genie-Touched = Calimshan and the Empires of Sand

- Moonwell Pilgrim = Moonshae Isles?

- Spellfire Initiate = Dalelands?

- Shadowmasters Exile = what, Anauroch?? Netherese???

Shadowfell maybe?

Anyways I just noticed they updated the Ultimate Bundle to add Atlas of Faerun, a digital map of Faerun which I'm guessing is interactive given the name.

Shadowfell maybe?

Given the “Fall of Netheril” DLC (AKA content there wasn’t space for), I would guess specifically Shadovar.

Oh right, these are the books that're supposed to have Circle Casting rules in them, yeah? I'll be interested to see what they do with them.

I own the old fearun atlas. But it just does not run on modern pcs anymore...

Most of the Winter Walker features. Not pictured is the one major change I saw, which is their ability to ignore cold resistance now works on not only their polar strikes but also on their spells and any attacks they make.
