[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8737855, member: 20564"] Please, take my wood elf hermit monk and rebuild him mechanically the same using the UA. Ability score modifiers in the same place*. Mask of the Wild wood elf subrace feature to hide. Same Discovery hermit feature. Longbow proficiency for a good ranged option. *I understand that I can give up my background, create a custom background that covers the exact same narrative space as an existing background, and shift around the ability score modifiers. [B]That still is a change.[/B] And also doesn't grant me the feature, some of which like our Urchin in a Ravnica game I played where quick travel through a city gets used every session. And it does grant me a feat, which is [B]also a change.[/B] Literally every single section presented in the UA can and usually does differ from the existing character. I'm not saying any of it is bad. I'm also not saying a 2014 PHB character can't adventure alongside a 2024 character. What I said is that you can't recreate the same character and have the mechanics match. [I]This isn't debatable, the mechanics in the document differ from the PHB.[/I] Trying to say they don't is ignorance or a baldfaced lie. [/QUOTE]
