D&D 5E (2024) True Polymorph now confers permanent muteness

[pukunui]

If it had not been corrected, than you would be Ariel from the Little Mermaid, unable to speak after being Polymorphed into a human.

It has not been corrected, so yes, anyone who is True Polymorphed is like Ariel.

The muteness part has not been corrected. Only the temporary HP part has.

Also, you have to wear a clamshell bra.

Err, from Temporary Hit Points, "Temporary Hit Points last until they’re depleted or you finish a Long Rest (see the rules glossary)."

Yes, that's fine. The issue with the spell was that it ended when the THP were depleted. That sentence has now been removed, so the spell continues to last even after the THP are gone.

its almost like there was zero testing, all feedback was ignored, and anything beyond lvl 6 recieved exactly ZERO thought about how it worked...

They just wanted us to keep talking about the game. All publicity is good, am I rite?

Pretty much. The goal was to change just enough to sell all the same books again. Yet somehow they still screwed it up

 

[jayoungr]

Well that’s just dumb.

Pun intended?

Right. Yes. ~10 relatively minor issues is a major screw-up!

EDIT: The only big screw-up for me is the ranger. It still boggles my mind how they managed to make it both better and worse at the same time!
