Very great post. I simply stumbled upon your blog and wished to mention that I have really enjoyed surfing around your blog posts. Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so I came to check it out. Great blog and amazing style and design.

By far, the most useful part was on traps: I admittedly had been de-prioritizing traps in my dungeon design since they didn't ad Virtually everything is a set of randomized tables, allowing you to create vaguely believable fantasy backstories, arm wrestling contests, or deadly traps in minutes.

New characters have a ton of fun, flavorful options, from the anime monk who fires tiny Despite being totally optional, I think it's fantastic--I'd recommend getting it before the Dungeon Master's Guide although the magic item list is important, there's a pretty decent list in the freely available System Reference Document.

It has a bunch of optional class archetypes and spells. But the most compelling part for me is the 'This Is Your Life' section, which has a lot of aids for fleshing o Glad to see many of the touch ups they did for the Subclasses, some really needed a polish.

But was disappointed to see so many re-prints from Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. Why were they included? Takes away from the value of that book. Could have done without a table of names for real world places, and include more tables for the fantasy setting. Where's the Drow names for example? The tool section was a great addition. Explaining more clearly what can be done with them as the PHB was majorly The Appendices for sure. The wealth of new material, and how to best use it, is perfect for both players and GMs alike.

There's none of that here. I enjoyed the way it was laid out, with little comments from 'the author', the titular Xanathar, and I especially like the background and name generator sections. I am sad that they didn't include the Sword Coast sourcebook spells as they did with the Elemental Evil ones , especially since a number of the class archetypes from there are replicated here. It may also have been nice to have a couple of new backgrounds, since those are always fun.

Overall t The other sections were nice as well, but the new subclasses are the main attraction for me. I was a bit less fond of the little notes by the Xanathar, though, A guide to everything indeed.

This book includes many sub-classes for each class, as well as additional backstory elements for them. It includes a few new racially restricted feats, and a wealth of DM tools, including some new magic items, new ways to use tool proficiencies, and some very handy charts.

Xanathar has a lot less to say than Volo, and what he does say isn't nearly as interesting, but the content of this book is fabulous. I read this from the library, and really liked it, but I wouldn't have if i would have paid full retail. Great supplement for both players and DMs of Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. Everything is brilliant and helpful - especially the encounter generation tables for both medium time and short time circumstances.

Lots of great stuff here, especially in the background and class option areas. Common magical items are just the perfect treats without being unbalancing. The downtime section might prove problematic with power gamers. Biggest complaint, random tables for encounters, ugh. Very good stuff! I'm not personaly excited to try many if any of the new subclasses, but I'm glad it is out!

The DM tools are amazing though. Tables to roll and much more! Well, this is the modern equivalent! A note on accuracy of above statement, Wizards runs an Unearthed Arcana site where they post rules that are still in test. Want to play a Centaur?

There's a guide there! First off, this book opens with new character class options - for example, there are examples for the Fighter class for Heraldic Signs, Instructors, and Signature fighting
