    I think D&D needs an official tool to convert any existing statblock to other CRs. That would be very helpful for me as a DM. I agreed with their point that some monsters in the 2014 manual didn't live up to their CR.

    Sounds like lots of good stuff. I hope the CR issues are address 1-20. For my group of experienced dnd players from the 80s... They usually walk over many of my encounters when they should be extremely tough based on CR. It would be nice to see base versions and elite versions of each monster like pathfinder does. I find dnd to be more for players on easy mode. I find pathfinder is geared more for DM/GMs making it easier to run games and tougher for characters to survive.

    No table of D&D follows the dungeon master guide rules on page 76 (or whatever) that state 6-8 medium fights per long rest with 2 short rests breaking those up. The core mechanic in the game is the rest mechanic and how many fights you get between each type of rest. That's what determines resources available per fight. This changes the balance/value of every class ability, racial ability, feat, spell, and item ability that recharges on short or long rest. In turn, this dramatically changes the balance of every single monster in the game.
    You want me to buy a new set of book and a new monster manual.
    Have you "fixed" this to match how people are actually using your game, or made allowances for it?
    Every single major D&D channel has complained about the balance of the game. Every team with a stream about D&D. Every channel that does D&D content ... they all tend to play roughly 1-3 fights per long rest (instead of 6-8) and ... unsurprisingly ... that wildly changes the value of things. If you're supposed to have 3 rages per day and you have 6-8 fights ... that's obviously wildly different than if you have 3 rages for 3 fights. You have like 8 levels of warlock with 2-4 spells per day (zero to one short rests per day) instead of having roughly 6 spells for 6-8 fights which would compare really evenly with ... bard/cleric/druid/wizard/sorcerer having roughly the same number of spells per 6-8 fights. This obviously means that the way people chose to modify the rules significantly weakens classes like warlock. And if characters have a totally different number of resources the challenge of those monsters will be WILDLY different.
    So, is this more of the same where the way people chose to play the game ... the challenge rating in the monster manual you want me to buy is ... at best ... a basic guideline?
    (dungeon dudes, XP to 3, nerdarchy, D4, dimension20, critical role ....... on and on it goes ... most of them don't understand game design, even the ones who've published books .. and most of them don't actually understand how the resting is changing things .... that statement is based on how those channels have spoken about the 5E balance issues ... the BOOK needs to account for this stuff even if it's the fault of the customers making the game their own and not following rules then being surprised when things are broken ... as a side note I've played through several Wizards of the Coast modules and those CERTAINLY don't play out like the players are supposed to do 6-8 fights per day)
