Hi,

I wonder, is there any information on schedule when will the handbooks per class be released?

Looking into the Players Handbook, it makes the tip of the iceberg impression, there is so much detail that could be additionaly extended. 
For example, the Monk is describet nice, but it really makes me look for a complete monk handbook, with more backrounds, from monasteries, from Dojo`s, from Martial art schools. Sorcerer and Warlock, would really need a book as well, for the Warlock the familiars, are a bit quick and dirty done, and the Sorcerer make the impression there is a lot of improvement space as well, for example for the origins of his magic, just two origins is a bit insuficient.  

Overall the players handbook is great to begin with, but the class handbooks would realy unleash the full D&D 5e potential. 

Not just only for the existing classes, but a well for the special classes, like Psionic etc.

So let me know in case any of you have information on the release schedule for the additional rule/class books

Sounds good, looking forward to the new PDF. 

While I definitely would not like to have tens of splat books, still the idea I saw somewhere in the forum of having a additional 2nd PHB (advanced PHB to keep the tradtion) could be the solution. Like not having a advanced PHB with what already is in the PHB, so not like the second edition, but having a advanced PHB with more races, classes (psionic)  more deatail in class, skills, advanced combat rules, making it as the book optional that would be great. 

 

So I would really like to see a additional optional PHB with extended details, it could even have more pages than the PHB it self, I would still buy it
