[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 9150638, member: 996"] That's a big difference between 4e and 5e, the first two years, 4e put out frequent updates to close loopholes and fix errors in wording. There were some pretty stupid things you could do, at first, if you willfully misconstrued phrasing... (there still are, in later materials, since they stopped such updates with Essentials). 5e has numerous such loopholes - CharOP types have dubbed them 'tech' this time around - and 5e is fine with leaving them uncorrected for 10 years. DM's have probably fixed them, themselves, in various ways, and wouldn't like being told they'd done it wrong by seeing an official fix. [/QUOTE]
