[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 9769836, member: 6790260"] And I personally believe that that is precisely what it is. It redesigned most classes, changed when you get class features, completely rewrote feats, rewrote or modified several spells, [I]you don't get ability scores from race[/I], etc. The rewriting of species and background has been a pretty annoying issue, actually, because every VTT I've used (only three, admittedly, but still) will simply screw you over if you try to run a 5.0 background but a 5.5e species. You literally just...never get the chance to have the extra points. Given that that means you actually [I]do[/I] need conversion stuff and cannot simply mix rules components, I don't see how that can be anything smaller than what 3rd edition did, what with re-writing multiple classes, changing spell levels and access, and rewriting the wording of various spells to close known loopholes. If "2024" 5e isn't different enough to be 5.5e, then [I]the edition that gave us the term ".5e[/I]" wasn't big enough to be 3.5e. [/QUOTE]
