Top 5 D&D Books

[johnnype]

I asked a similar question on RPG.net a few months back.

My list would include:

Advanced Bestiary (Green Ronin)
Book of Fiends (Green Ronin)
Expanded Psionics Handbook (WotC)
Iron Kingdoms World Guide (Privateer Press)
Iron Kingdoms Character Guide (Privateer Press)

The last two are new additions since I last answered this question. I think I had previously listed Unearthed Arcana and The Book of the Righteous which are still two of my favorites.

 

[TroyXavier]

for me
Expanded Psionics Handbook
Races of Stone
Draconomicon
Unearthed Arcana
Arcana Evolved

 

[Mercule]

Unearthed Arcana
Eberron Compaign Setting
Complete Warrior
Complete Adventurer
1E DMG (still sees more use than some 3E books)

 

[DMH]

I am going to stay with d20

Book of Templates (DE)
Minions
Shaping the Self
Enchiridion of Treasures and Objects D'Art
Unearthed Arcana

I do not see any instructions. People define what is and is not a "D&D" book in different ways.

I believe that refers to people who included paper, dice, or core books in their list. Since those are included already in the first post.

Draconomicon
MM2
XPH
2 Completes chosen at random

or it could be a statement about how they feel about the core books.

For once, diaglo and I can agree on something.

Umm, what does XPH stand for?

 

[ElvishBard]

Umm, what does XPH stand for?

Expanded Psionic Handbook

My five books are:
1. Unearthed Arcana
2. MM2
3. MM3
4. Another PHB (My players always fight over the one I have lol)
5. Arms & Equipment guide

Umm, what does XPH stand for?

I guess it'd be EPH, but everyone says XPH for some reason. Looks cooler, I guess.

 

[Testament]

Hmmm...

1. Player's Guide to Arcanis
2. Codex Arcanis
3. Expanded Psionics Handbook
4. Fiend Folio
5. Star Wars Revised Core Rulebook (for a change of pace)
