Feb 07, 2010 7:44:30 I know it hasn't be unnounced, but, it seems a consensus that it is probably the best DM book of all DnD (not only 4e). I Don't how successeful marketwise it was, but i would love more delve book. My sugestion is to make book thematic linked with the campaing settings released. I certanly would love some eberron and dark sun delves.

Feb 07, 2010 9:13:29 Lots of Delves have appeared in other splat books since then, and there have been Delves in Dungeon. Whether we get another whole book of Delves or not, we shall see.

Feb 07, 2010 11:38:03 Dungeon Delve is considered the best DM book, ever? I like it and all, but it wouldn't even make my top 50. But I agree, I hope wotc releases more delve books. Although the DD is a perfect foundation to expand upon if they don't.

+1. This would be freaking awesome!

And I would agree that the first Dungeon Delve has been extremely handy. I steal stuff from it all the time, although I've never run a delve whole. It can't beat the ECG for DM usefulness, though. That book has given me more ideas than anything else ever.

Dungeon Delve is considered the best DM book, ever?

Well, considering we get a "I want a Dungeon Delve 2!" thread on these forums every four weeks, I'd say that it is a very popular book. Personally, I use it once a month and find it very useful to get into the 4ed mindset.

And I'll repeat what I say in every DD2 thread: Book of Random Encounters! 3 for each level, 90 in all. For each level, one encounter in dungeons, one encounter in the wilderness, one encounter in the city. Make it so!

Feb 08, 2010 4:50:42 I may not the best DM book for experienced DM's, but for new DM's and casual-DM's it is a must have, and it amuses me that even with the "bring more people to the hobby" policy from WotC, it hasn't a DD2 book.

I wold love a delve or encounter book for each campaing setting.

Feb 09, 2010 12:59:53 besides being a great help to newcomers and wanna-be dungeon designers, Dungeon Delve presents good inspirations (and a good reading for a hardcore dnd dungeon master).

I vote for a Dungeon Delve 2 book, in the same format, but with more themed delves, like the old Keep on the Borderlands, and a story permeating the pack. Or just more delves, they're too much fun!!!!!!

I DM'ed a whille ago the Delves level 2 and 3 in a mini campaing, with just a little work a a bg story. My players had a blast, i wish i had more delves to play arround.

Feb 11, 2010 7:05:50 Dungeon Delve is really that popular? I didn't realize that. I've used it a couple times when players couldn't make it to a session, and I needed to quickly find something to run with the remaining players instead of our regular campaign. I wouldn't use it for much other than that, though. To each their own.

Feb 13, 2010 10:55:43 I've used it like that a couple times too, VaultDweller, but the main usefulness for me is in stealing the delves and modifying them for my game. The nice thing is that I can do this on the fly, so if my players do something unexpected I can yank out dungeon delve and with a few tweaks be on my way.

Also, I've had situations where I really didn't know what the players were going to do, so I had to prep for a lot of possibilities. DD is temendously useful for this, because I can grab a couple delves from it and tweak them beforehand instead of creating them out of whole cloth.

Feb 14, 2010 19:51:16 Here's my vote for Dungeon Delve 2. I loved the first one and use it all the time. Sometimes it's straight up as written for quick pickup games, but more often modified to varying degrees to fit my campaign. I put Dungeon Delve in my top 5 DnD book. WoTC, please make a second one!
