![What are 'Group Backgrounds' in D&D? [Eberron: Rising from the Last War]](/img/tr.png)
What elements of Eberron appeal to you the most? The technology, the races, the swashbuckling adventure?
Im always hyped for subclasses and a class that I can use in my homebrew campaign
The way it feels so modern in spite of being a fantasy world blends genres in a way that reminds me of Star Wars.
If the races from wayfinders get made completely official, then those. Changeling is my favorite race. Other than that I'm super excited for the official artificer
I'm excited the most about the expanded lore of Eberron. Running Eberron games, it is so helpful when new lore and story comes out for me to mold into my stories.
Noir, political and legal intrigue, cold war, technology, analysis of the effects of war on society, religion as depicted in Eberron... Best setting ever
(At the start)
DM:alright let's get started.
Players:let's save the world.
(At the end)
Players:did we just accidentally start a war.
DM:yes you did.
Todd: “So what is up with the 2 new planes of existence?”
*Earth vibrates as a bunch of Eberron nerds rush to the comments to rant cosmology*
James, diving out in front: “Actuallyeverythingisdifferentandseparate!”
I am running an Eberron game right now where an ancient forge was turned on, deep in the swamps of Droaam. The party left it on and then caused hell all through Droaam to the border of Breland. Now there is a huge diplomatic crisis! Some want to take an army into Droaam. Some want to use diplomacy. I don't know what is going to happen, but it's getting very exciting! Remember, the Sisters want recognition as a nation, which the Treaty of Thronehold did not give them. It's going to be an interesting couple of Fridays over the coming weeks. Getting this book will only help assist me in running this already complex and great game. :)
Awhile back in a previous incarnation of Eberron my gaming group played a squad of warforged soldiers during the Last War belonging to a unit that came to be called the " Iron 8th ". We had a lot of fun slogging through the mud and conflict just trying to survive. Maybe now it is time to revisit our old characters and find out what those warforged veterans are doing with themselves. Maybe they can make a new life for themselves beyond the Last War, beyond the horror and the meager victories.
That campaign sounds epic!!!
Since Wayfinder's coming out I've been running a cop show inspired campaign in Eberron, can't wait to add more to the game with this new book!
AAAB (All Adventurers Are Bad)
i'm in a campaign in Eberron where we are actually in the war
This crop idea sounds pretty cool
Sounds wicked and could blow up DnD all over again.
It will :P
@@billyrigby4839 did it? I'm thinking of getting into it
We need more Campaign setting books and fewer adventure campaign books. An actual Forgotten Realms setting book aside from Sword Coast would be great, for example. I love the 5E mechanics, but this is my biggest complaint about this version.
Kerry Collier while I do agree some of the campaign books are fantastic and I think they’re just trying to find a balance between everything
@@johnmcguire4570 I haven't seen much in the way of balance, to be honest. The majority of books are adventures. I want more of the other stuff at this point. As someone that is more of a player, adventures don't interest me nearly as much as other kinds of books do. I want to buy books I can use and enjoy without running the risks of ruining an adventure.
In my opinion they really wanted to revolve things around one campaign, because if everyone playing D&D has a general idea about the motivations and such they are less likely to end up confused and mess up there rp. But other settings should ideally exist for people who are experts at D&D lore and desire something new, But at that point most people homebrew anyway.
@@maggintons but there are those of us that like playing in the offical settings. Give us some stuff too.
the Eberron Cosmology actually kinda explains what happened to the Dragon gods of The Forgotten Realms after they just vanished
Wait what? How so? Could you please elaborate on that?
I played in a homebrew eberron 5e campaign pre the WOC book was released. One of the quests we did involved dealing with the summer and winter courts in the feywild. Because of us winter on Khorvaire was particularly harsh that year, opps.
I get a vibe of a combination of the three: fantasy, Roaring 20's, and the fallout universe.
Such ample new material scares me a little. But I want to DM it so bad. I should start read and study it as it were an exam for university!
I like it so much!
I would like too see them do something like greyhawk or dragonspear or possibly more eastward in fearun next
I don’t want to be THAT guy but i’m pretty sure its written “Dragonlance”, “Dragonspear” is the name of a castle in the Forgotten Realms setting.
haven't seen James Wyatt in DnD in a long time, good to see him, he is the best!
I get my eberron sourcebook today...can't wait
I love Eberron can't wait to get my hands on it.
I need to know what subclasses, aside from the Artificer ones, are in Eberron: Rising from the Last War
from what has been revealed there are none
There's new races, though.
0:08 He said "with multiple subclasses" BEFORE mentioning the artificer which implies that there are at least a few.
If I had to guess maybe the UA ones that came out over the past few months but it could be anything.
Like WotC would have made a much bigger deal out of new subclasses if any were being released. From what has been said the 3 subclasses are for the artificer and that is it for this book. Like there is alot of other stuff anyway from new races, to dragonmarks and magic items like not every book needs new subclasses and with UA these would have needed a bigger gap between coming out and book release as they need to send a bit in advance the pages to the printers and alot of time needs to be spent as well as on content on layout and art. let's just be happy with what we have.
WoTC somewhat jumped the gun on a lot of the changes of the races in my opinion. I mean, yes, the integrated protection for Warforged from the UA was stupidly broken and definitely needed fixing to where the current changes feel fair but they needlessly stripped out the subraces that sort of made Warforged unique and feel like they were indeed created with specialized purposes. Feels like they beat Warforged with the Nerf Hammer a few too many times to the point of being flat and bland. As for the Changelings, I don't think the removal of Unsettling Visage and Divergent Persona was needed and although you could argue they don't make sense, removing them all together and not replacing them with something else makes the race feel more empty and lacking features. Kalashtar definitely feel more balanced but the removal of the range limit of Mind Link didn't seem necessary. And don't get me started on Wildhunt Shifters. You pretty much made a subrace that Barbarians can now play to get free advantage on Reckless Attacks without the downsides. Granted, it's once per long rest but if you're pairing it with a Berserker Barbarian, you're pretty much getting 3 attacks at advantage with no downside when you decide to go all out.
ravenloft 5e campaign setting please! with margaret weis and tracy hickman involved.
curse of strahd has hickmans involvement...
@@stevevondoom4140 yeah that's why the setting would have to have their involvement. it looks really strange without. when white wolf did the 3e book they didn't have permission for that stuff, so they couldn't mention, say, lord soth. instead you get this unnamed dark knight that gets referenced only vaguely.
I have my copy ordered.
Just curious could anyone tell me why Keith Baker wasn't in this video seeing as the creator just curious I love seeing his awesome cowboy hat.
So when Rising From The Last War is released what happens with Wayfinders Guide to Eberron? Wasnt it supposed to get an official release eventually?
The more I head about Rising From The Last War the more it feels like those of us who bought the Wayfinder's Guide are getting the shaft.
Seems like they just decided nah, you'll have to buy it again.
My understanding is that it will be updated with the final versions of the races and sub-races, as well as the base Artificer class plus one of the sub-classes, as well as updated versions of any other rule elements.
wayfinders was playtest material. the beta for this essentially.
@@scarecrow6816 I'm aware but we were told we'd get the final copy of wayfinders when it was done if we purchased it while it was still UA
Are the same materials presented in both books? Do you need both?
We won’t know for sure till the 19th
I really want to run a ‘The Good, The Bad and The Ugly’ storyline looking for some lost gold in this setting.
Have any of the subclasses for this book been revealed? I really want another warlock, monk or druid subclass so fingers crossed (just wondering since the meantion of subclasses at the start is the first I've heard of it)
It will only have the Artificer.
Idk I was wondering the same since he said new subclasses, and artificer like they are separate things.
There are new subclasses for each class, not sure if they are in the book but they are on their website for playtest
@@Tbeasty-kt9tg that is for unearthed arcana. This book will not include those
The subclasses in this book are all for artificers, they include Battlesmith, Alechemist, and a third one I forget it's called.
We need some Dragonlance
in DDO, Lloth came into Eberron
I fell in love with it in Dungeons & Dragons Online
DDO is such a good game
I want a Greyhawk and Dragonlance book for 5e
I want to hear about players handbook 2. So we can use all those "fixed classes" they have been talking about in adventurers League
its all in the most recent unerthead arcana
They will never do a book called Player's Handbook 2 for 5e, because market research has shown that a not insignificant portion of newbies will look at the shelf of D&D stuff at their FLGS and go "Player's Handbook and Player's Handbook II... the second one has to be better, so I'll buy that." That's why we've gotten Xanathar's Guide to Everything, Volo's Guide to Monsters, and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes instead of PHB2, MM2, and MM3.
That's not to say there won't be another player-focused book of Stuff, but it would be similar to Xanathar's.
Well till they put out something official we can't use it in adventurers League
I always thought Vi was a planeswalker.
It's funny when he says to look at the words, but Last War contains a lot of copy pasted information from Wayfinder's Guide.
Sharn is the medieval Coruscant
I would like to see Dragonlance, Grey Hawk, Ravenloft and Al-Qadim, all with books this next year!
That sounds rather unlikely but I wouldn't complain if they did that! Probably they'll make one setting like how they did Ravnica a year ago and Eberron now
I'd put Dark Sun before all of those.
@@ogrejehosephatt37 Point, the best thing to come out of 4E really was the Dark Sun books, such a weird, unique setting
If you could match the audio volume of both people it would be greatly appreciated 😊
Eberron planes of existence, Ravnica or Planeswalking in General. I am hyped 🤩
eberron is a good setting to do epic games beyond level20 and exploring universes beyond
You could continue this progression with letting players get epic boons during that lvl 20 adventure.
A teaser for Planescape?
So, am I the only one that hates the new changeling? Like I got my copy of RFTLW in today and the changeling got completely neutered and is so dull now. I can't say much for the warforged, because I've never played one, but the changeling really bums me out
R.I.P. Arcane Weapon :(
artificers should be about magic not firearms. it was a good choice
@@darephish2413 Arcane Weapon was a spell specific to the class.
@@TheCarlosLuna oh sorry my mistake
What they said about some of the gods from Greyhawk and Forgotten Realms meddling with multiple planes throughout the multiverse made me think of how such a situation could be used in a Level 20 arc where the players are trying to push back a gods influence throughout the multiverse, moving from plane to plane.
If I have wayfinders, do I also get last war, or do I have to pay again?
As far as I know, you will receive the updated things in the last book, and will need to buy at a lower price the rest of the book
it's a completely revised book with like twice as much content... wayfinders was playtest material essentially.
Changelings and Warforged got nerfed haaaaaaaaaaard
These settings (Eberron and Ravinica) are pretty pedestrian to be honest. When will you they do the truly interesting stuff like Planescape, Dark Sun and Spelljammer??
I really liked Guildmasters Guide, thought it was one of the best 5e supplements, and am really looking forward to Eberron.
One piece of criticsm - it would have been great to advance the story a bit, so mayb it was set 7 years after the last war rather than 2. It would just give the setting a fresh wind and allow for a bit more progression, and you don't really lose anything about how the War is still important to the setting and to the characters.
Too late now, but just my two cents!
I strongly disagree. A big draw of the setting is that it has *just* come out of the Last War, and everything is still on the edge. It is a setting full of potential, and moving it forward necessitates *resolving* some of that potential, thus reducing its use for actual campaigns.
The closest real-world analogy I can think of is the "roaring 20s". The Last War is very similar to WW1, in that it was highly destructive, brought forth many new technologies, and didn't really have a conclusive ending. They even brought home the analogy by having the armistice treaty signed on the equivalent of November 11 in a lightning rail cart. So, the setting is highly dependent on this post-war era of prosperity and intrigue with the wounds of the war still fresh. Moving the timeline forward would change that - just like the stories you'd tell of a 30s Europe or America would be very different from the stories you'd tell about a 20s Europe or America.
The point of a published campaign setting is not for the designers to tell a story. It is to let DMs and players tell their own stories. Many published settings make this mistake, and I don't want to see that happen to Eberron.
@@BalooSJ I know it is, but i think it would have been good for the setting to move it on a bit imo, but it's just my opinion.
@@misomiso8228 I've never seen a setting that was improved by metaplot advancing the timeline. It pretty much always wrecks the stuff that attracted me to the setting in the first place.
@@BalooSJ I agree that generally you are correct, eg Dark sun, Dragonlance, The FR edition changes, but I think with Eberron it would have been different.
Advancing the storyline 5 years would have allowed for some new ideas, but not setting DEFINING changes. In the analagy of the 1st world war it would have gone from 1920 to 1925.
I just felt that having NOTHING change was a mistake. I've posted this on other forums but just wanted to post it here, but it's WotC's property they can do what they want!
I'm just disappointed that Archivist got the axe. It was my favorite subclass.
no planescape
no ravenloft
i sleep
I thought eberron was in Pathfinder, did wotc by their company and we didn't hear about it?
That's Golarion.
Eberon has always been main line dnd since it was made.
Fist
I can't believe you screwed it up
Why did you guys change a bunch of Keith Baker's 5e rules? This book is good for lore, but absolutely awful for actual game mechanics.
With all that magic. Aren’t the characters too powerful to go into other settings of D&D?
I have never had any problems. I run a high magic, high powered game most often anyway, so it doesn't change too much for us.
I would argue the thing that makes it the most broken In other settings is dragon marks which you can easily ignore as the DM
You killed Warforged. Congratulations. All you had to do was either nerf Integrated protection or get rid of it, but no!! You took Warforged(the unofficial sponsor of Eberron, to the point that ONE IS ON THE COVER) and watered them down to the point were they are barley recognisable. You killed Juggernaut and Skirmisher, you axed Integrated Tool, hell you even took away a +1 to stats, and gave us nothing in return exept for 1 tool proficiency and 1 language! The race feels so bland now! Shouldn't a race that was created to replace human soldiers on a battle field be at least as good as a human?
Honestly sad to see what they did to warforged and changeling.
