D&D 5E Out of the Abyss + Basic Rules?

Thanks for that tweet!


Mostly what you need is monsters from the Monster Manual.

Of course you might say "but I know all those monsters already". The benefit is that we're slowly building up an electronic MM, one where you can print out pictures and copy statblocks for your players to see

Don't forget the DMG for magic items!

I obviously cannot be sure without going through the entire module with a comb, but I would guess the adventure has placed very few specific non-Basic items.

Anybody notice how hard it is to find the supplements on the website now?

I've been looking through it, so far I've found 18 items that you need the DMG for, not including any random encounters where you need tables.

Thanks.

Okay, so now the question becomes how does OotA follow the DMG treasure guidelines? Time for a new thread!

I have to find the source again , and I could be remembering wrong, so take this with a grain of salt, but I feel like I saw a quote from mearls (maybe in that compiled Twitter thread?) where someone asked him about oota supplement and he said one is planned but somehow got bumped from the schedule and would look in to it...

Or something. Again I could be remembering wrong

You're right:

But that was a week go and it was late then. Likely well off their radar now. (I.e. don't hold your breath.)

The tweet I posted earlier in the thread was after that one. It's being worked on. (Elemental Evil was late, too.)

If you started a new thread can you send the link?

Finding *anything* on that site is difficult. They are on the product pages, but there needs to be an adventure supplement subpage.
