| #4GladiusLegisAug 08, 2014 16:33:51 | Out of all the monsters there, there really aren't that many who do more than 20 damage in a single hit. Off hand, I only noticed the Stone Giant's stone throw, the Dragons' breaths and the Assassin's poison.
Since it's pretty safe to assume these monsters use the final monster design guidelines, that is good news for spellcasters system-wide. For melee casters, War Caster is now more of a nice bonus than an outright feat tax like some feared. |

| #6MelwickAug 08, 2014 16:05:18 | I don't like what they did with the griffin in this pdf! In the old SRD document for 3.5 edition, the griffin is supposed to be an intelligent beast with an INT score of 5. The griffin in this pdf has an INT score of 2, like a common animal. |
| #7IgnatiusJ.ReillyAug 08, 2014 16:04:21 | Aha, Mirror Image isn't concentration. |
| #8MelwickAug 08, 2014 16:34:26 | Also, I wonder what PCs can do with creatures like giant frogs...are giant frogs edible? |

| #10Brock_LandersAug 08, 2014 16:40:20 | I would like to see some Celestials and Fiends on Monday. |
| #11SturmunddrangAug 08, 2014 17:10:09 | Nice to finally see some monsters even if dragon is alphabetically sorted into the "a"s.
Not nice to see the ridiculous legendary system went live or the awkward and annoying recharge system. It makes fights so ridiculous. The blue dragon's flight ability for instance turns a huge monster into a ballerina and can completely ruin encounters. Although 225 HP at level 16 could also make it a 1-rounder. |
| #12MelwickAug 08, 2014 17:59:11 | How come one of the adult dragons has an intelligence score of 8 while the other one has an INT score of 16? |

| #14GladiusLegisAug 08, 2014 18:02:14 | Haven't white dragons always been considered the stupidest dragons? |
| #15MelwickAug 08, 2014 18:08:04 | White dragons are dumber than humans then. ROFLMAO! LOL! |

| #17ChrisCarlsonAug 08, 2014 18:18:35 | I believe that's been consistent for many editions now. White dragons iz teh dum. |

"Are you sayin' I'm dumb?! (looks back and forth) You MUST be sayin' I'm dumb. You Muth******** *********** *** ***** ****!!!!11!"
And, now you're a frozen Hot Pocket (New! Adventurer Flavor! Now with 30% more elf!) he saves for later. He'll microwave you sometime during the Jersey Shore marathon. Gourmet, (or smart) he is not.
PS: You can't see his frosted highlights, because he's a white dragon. But they are there. Trust me. |
| #19ZardnaarAug 08, 2014 19:32:53 | It has Orc Kobolds!!!! Between this and the starter set there is enough to design some stuff with.
Edit BTTW thanks frothsof I really wanted to see how Orcs and Kobolds panned out compared to the big hitters of Bugbears and Hobgoblins. |

| #22MelwickAug 08, 2014 20:31:36 | Ok, maybe white dragons aren't as dumb as I thought. |
| #23JohnLynchAug 09, 2014 0:56:58 | I'm disappointed spells aren't written out. |
