Frontiers of EBERRON | DMs Guild

[@cosmiccowboy9358]

WOTC really messed up by not letting Keith just do Eberron the way he wanted

[@mrsmegz]

@@cosmiccowboy9358 they messed up by not making it the default setting.

[@MagiofAsura]

WotC has no idea how to sell any setting

[@Nemo12417]

@@mrsmegz I think Greyhawk was a safe option. Eberron's appeal is that it is different, but if you want to run a standard fantasy campaign, Eberron might be too different.

[@Nemo12417]

I'm a huge Eberron fan, and Rising from the Last War played a huge part in getting me into Keith's stuff. I figure they did some stuff he might not have, but was there anything major? I'm not sure I'll be buying the 2024 stuff, but I will be buying Keith's newest book.

[@thatwascold]

@Nemo12417 Honestly, a lot of Rising from the Last War was just taking previous editions' content and converting the mechanics to 5e. I don't remember a ton of new lore appearing in it. I don't peesume to speak for Keith, but I know some people think the artificer in 5e vs. when it first appeared in 3e is pretty different, mechanically. Not sure if he'd have tuned it differently.

[@InquisitorThomas]

Keith Baker has given me the power to play as Scooby Doo and I’m making it the entire world’s problem.

[@JamesAdams-nd1td]

And the world will cry: "Relp!"

[@JamesAdams-nd1td]

This sounds really cool, but I have to call shenanigans on the idea that Gargoyles don't need to sleep. I'm a child of the 90s, and as we all know Gargoyles are "Stone by day. Warriors by night."

[@Ammeeeeeeer]

The spell.is broken......AND WE LIVE AGAIN!!! 😁

[@KarmicCycle]

My goblin societies changed drastically when I discovered that Worgs can talk, and they speak goblin. Surprised the hells out of my players when they started hearing the goblins and worgs communicating.

[@MoonGoblin]

WHAT???!

[@Ziggy7800Pro]

I always wanted to play a gargoyle as a kid who watched Disney's Gargoyle show back in the day. I probably get this just for that.

[@SeaBearsRAR]

I like how focused it seems. The 2019 book was good as an introduction but I found during running my campaign that I'd be interested in a part of the world and then have to dig around 3e material to find enough gamable information to actually run it.

[@bifflechips-t5r]

Once I finish my current campaign, I'm spending some time to focus on short campaigns, both 5e and other systems, as a way of trying other settings or genres (ie Spelljammer, Planescape. Grimhollow) that I wouldn't have the time to run a proper full length campaign for, but I picked this up to see about pitching this as the short campaign for Eberron, which I didn't know much about. I'm excited about everything I've taken in about Eberron though, and it seems very cool.

[@ayindehorton2803]

You say Eberron I say "Say less". It's an instant buy for me. I bought the hardcover of the Exploring Eberron book and it is to date the BEST D&D book I ever owned. I am always finding myself coming back to it in every game I run :')

[@blahlbinoa]

I'm always excited for more Eberron! I made Warforged and ran an Eberron 5e game back in 2015 and so immediatly bought the Eberron Source book, I keep forgetting the other two came out and now a third! I'll probably have to get back into Eberron in the future!

[@sambro6657]

Do it bro rejoin us

[@Neverfate]

I've gotten so much use out of that interactive map for my campaign set in Lhazaar. Great review of a great book too!

[@Ambers128]

I have an entire level 1 to 20+ Eberron campaign. Favourite campaign setting.

[@demetrinight5924]

This sounds really cool. I actually had a player play a warg in a 3.5 game. We advanced her level with hit dice. She had a lot of fun playing as a talking wolf. The other player in the game was a goblin rogue. The entire campaign was going through published adventures where they made friends with all the goblins and recruited them to live in their keep away from all the monsters that wanted to exploit them as soldiers.

[@dungeondelversguild]

Love this! So happy to see more Eberron. I had no idea this book existed. We have been playing at our LGS for a couple years. I’ve been running Eberron since its original inception.

[@Nobleshield]

This is so tempting. I'm a huge fan of Eberron, and I love that it's basically the Old West (I just finished playing RDR2...) but I'm not familiar with 2024 or 5e. Might be worth considering since my area would get into D&D over a non-D&D game, and Eberron has been my favorite setting. The way that Medusa is handled as a race is super cool, I was wondering how the heck that would be balanced when I first read it was a thing, but the "lesser gaze" thing is great.

[@polyhedron3386]

Eberron works really well with 13th Age!

[@joefield8078]

Jorphdan has the best content it's a shame there aren't more subscribers

[@Jorphdan]

Spread the word! 😀✊

[@mistergoats4380]

Great book. While i do have concerns about the balance of the subclasses and how fun they are going to be to run at the table, they are all flavorful and cool to read. I'm excited to continue reading.

[@bluefalcon2099]

Tempted to use with Savage Eberron.

[@tomwilliams1494]

Do you think there could ever be a place in this world for a channel where the PH isn’t silent?

[@dynesaurus8264]

Whenever Keith drops a new book I always get the itch to DM

[@JohnnyDoom]

Keith also gave us Gloom. Thanks Keith!

[@sambro6657]

Ebberon is awesome I am so excited for this baby I’m ordering it tomorrow.

[@vpuigdoller]

Disease is a poison now right? On the 2024 edition. Hence the update to lesser restoration and the non existence of a disease condition.

[@Nemo12417]

This book did Dragonmarks more or less how I would have. I just have one complaint in that regard: instead of inventing the pointless Orien Step cantrip, the Mark of Passage should just add 5 to your movement speed.

[@dylanwallace7198]

I hard disagree, I'm a fan of orien step and find it more useful than that extra square of movement, alot of these options felt like a love letter to my house orien wandslinger that was dubbed the prince of passage

[@haydenbsiegel]

I like the no Death saves but not the autostabilize. As a DM I rarely kill people but I like to put them in encounters where they feel like they will. It gets heated and people start yelling but they survive and are extra happy! This rule is very threatening and I like that. It probably won't happen but only the DM knows that meaning the party will be a bit more careful and fight a little harder. I also fee like we need a 3e AD&D for more technical rules and hard-core mechanics. I really miss some of the 2e AD&D stuff and I know that it is basically Pathfinder but I want it in Realm. You know? Edit: Commerce Domain is legit

[@alvarogarcia5514]

outro music choice was on point of for the topic of the day.

[@lordvolland1930]

I really like this book, except maybe spells (like they're very strange) But for me - this is the best homebrew book I ever saw

[@TheKingchewy]

The idea that a player can say no, I don't die. Instead, I go to 0 hit points and move on. It takes a lot from the adventure. The risk reward balance is now gone.

[@BrentHollett]

Artificer is now in UA for a future release

[@KnicKnac]

Interesting stuff. Sounds fun

[@Zr0din]

Thanks. Please do the other review. I am looking at an Eberron campaign myself. This would make it better. Please explain the issue with Artificer again? It wasn't in the 2024 PHB so why not allow someone to use it as an asset. Is one of the subclasses way overpowered?

[@Jorphdan]

Because WotC will make an official Artificer class in a later supplement.

[@vpuigdoller]

Love it awesome.

[@socialdistancing1289]

we want more planegea!

[@TheOtakuKat]

I thought Keith dropped out of all Eberron projects after the OGL scandal?

[@cosmiccowboy9358]

For someone not switching to the new 2024 edition is it still worth it? I pretty much only play in Eberron so probably a yes

[@henrymalinowski5125]

How does not using the 2024 edition change the value proposition of this setting book?

[@cosmiccowboy9358]

@@henrymalinowski5125 I’m not sure all I know is the book was late coming out so it could be updated to the 2024 PHB. I was just curious if someone who had it could answer that question since I have no interest in the new updated edition

[@arturv.a.4542]

@cosmiccowboy9358 yeah it's worth it. Just gotta fix the levels of the Subclasses and decide if you want free feats or not.

[@cosmiccowboy9358]

@@arturv.a.4542 Thank you 😊

[@MrJoeyWheeler]

​@@henrymalinowski5125 Any classes/subclasses will not match up with the original 5e, spell lists won't match, and races/feats and their respective balance design won't match. I'm not buying this product because I do not want any 2024 D&D rubbish. I would've rather they made this for actual 5e.

[@felipegr6216]

Acho impressionante como se naturalizou pagar por arquivo digital q não tem custo pra reprodução. Um valor simbólico, ok. Afinal, tem-se que ter lucro pra bancar a produção. Mas q tal investir em um impresso de qualidade, e um material realmente util, incentivando a compra do produto físico, ao invés de lançar 70 livros por ano e cobrar 33 dólares por um PDF.

[@avan5352]

I hate 5E but love Eberron…

[@Jorphdan]

well lots of good, lore, npcs, and locations!

[@danddjacko]

Shame its updated to 2024 rules 😕

[@danddjacko]

The stabilising thing is rubbish 😕

[@Jorphdan]

Good thing it's optional :)

[@MrJoeyWheeler]

I like more Eberron. But this is a 2024 D&D product. Not a 5e product. So I'm going to pass.

[@ChiyuriYami]

Barely 30 seconds into the video: I actually am not checking any D&D 2024 Player handbook. I refuse to partake in the joke that this book is. I still however trully enjoy your content.
