ToV Tales of the Valiant is out! What do people think?

[Maenalis]

I was talking to someone and we came to the conclusion that: Tales of the Valiant is at the bottom of our interest list, when it comes to 5e related RPGs. To top it of, we think the current offering of TotV isn't "enough" and we forecast that it is going to be pushed out of the limelight and be on the same level as Fantasy Age when it comes to popularity (and sales).
We both are fans of Kobold Press and I felt it might be worth "notifying" them. Unless Kobold Press does something unexpected in the near future, I guess we are just going to skip buying their TotV products.

What does ToV do that "isn't enough" for you?

This seems as good a thread as any: hey @Marc Radle do you know anything about the ToV Fantasy grounds implementation? Like, timeline mostly?

Anyone using the Monster Vault alongside the 2024 D&D PHB?

I am considering to see how it compares to 5.24 and A5e, first impression was the Monk and it wasn't that impressive, at least at first glance, will see how other classes compare

Fighter and Ranger get some good stuff, but yes the TOV Monk is nowhere near as buffed as 24e

The monk is probably the one class that got the least amount of love (rogue runs a close second), however the subclasses are top notch. Of the rest of them the Ranger is arguably the best with the Warlock being the most distinct being both a half caster and pact caster.

It's a shame, since Monk is the class I always have most interest in, but I should give a look to Ranger and Warlock

Level Up's Adept (in many ways a re-named Monk with a broader focus) is pretty solid.

Yes, I know, been considering doing side by side comparison of the three, once I have more time
