[QUOTE="Warpiglet-7, post: 9364526, member: 7025282"] Well yes, but…. I have long struggled with the DMG. It makes me feel like I have ADHD. So often I wonder about something and with effort find it’s there after previously missing it. I have not had this problem to this degree with other DMG. It might be the layout or ordering of things but I almost “look through them” only to seek them out and find them later. When I first had this issue I put it all on me and was not so aware it was an issue others were having. Even the treasure and magic item table are not to my taste. Its hard to put my finger on exactly what is going on but it has not been a pleasant book to use, even though as you say a lot that is there is…good. When it is my turn to dm, I have copied and marked things but it’s just not as easy as it should be. I am a 5e fan overall. I have no “5e sux! X edition rules!” Axe to grind, at all. If anything I am skeptical of the need for the new phb because what we have works but I have long said an easier to use DMG would be on a buy list for me even if I did not adopt the new edition. Have I read the dmg? Yes; after a fashion. But in a very piecemeal unusual way… [/QUOTE]
