[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 9720471, member: 7635"] Depends on what feedback WotC got on the survey. I wager, based on a lot of comments here and elsewhere, the two most common pieces of feedback they got was "Purple Dragon Knights shouldn't have dragon pets" and "PDK is too specific a concept for a subclass." (The latter being people who want to use it for non-Realms games). So WotC probably combined that feedback into "they want a knight sub, but with the Purple Dragon name and without the purple dragon." Hence they did their best to save the old class and use the more generic name." This is the second time I've seen a perfectly good subclass idea die in UA to people who didn't understand the lore behind it (because the book wasn't out yet). The Izzet wizard for Ravnica being the other. I'm beginning to think WotC needs to put lore sidebars that give the game away because too many people react without acknowledging we are only seeing part of the picture. [/QUOTE]
