Bethany Busie on October 25, Aubrey Mar on October 26, Assembled here for the first time is new information on adventurers of every stripe. This is worth picking up for players and DMs for the additional character options. The additional spells and and magic items are nice to have as well. And I enjoy the snarky asides from the titular character sprinkled throughout the book.

The 1st real expansion of 5e was a quick read, but only because it cut straight to the point. New class options, new DM tools, new RP options, new spells, new feats, etc. No stone left unturned, as they say. At the heart of things, I was really only interested in a few spells, as the Core books for 5e we're exceptionally well rounded and left little else to be desired, on my end, both as a player and a DM.

Still Xanathar's is a solid addition to those rules, and I feel could help others who might Truly an epic addition to 5e DnD. This makes generating a character for a first time player or veteran even easier.

The layout of the book and the charts are just well placed and though out. Allowing players to create a well rounded character via dice rolls if they want. This provides a much faster path to filling in a characters back story or at least provides you with enough starting points to round them out with greater ease.

It even has a section that helps you generate a freaking name for Similar to Volo's Guide to Monsters , this book has the conceit of being narrated by the Xanathar, a beholder crime lord from the Forgotten As a player, I mostly wanted a compendium of new spells and sweet new classes. This book offers some thoughtful lower level spells and additions for some of the more boring classes i. A slightly random grabbag of improvements to 5e. A lot of the new subclasses are seem very fun, and definitely things that I'd want to play.

The really useful parts of this, however, are definitely the DM improvements. There are lots of improvements to rules that I've worried about: how to allocate magic items without just using the random tables, and rules for tool proficiencies, which otherwise seem to do almost nothing for most of the game. There isn't much of a coherent theme to this supplement — it's a grab bag of new character options and optional rules for the Dungeon Master, much like the old Best of Dragon Magazine books — but there's probably something here to appeal to everybody.

Production values are high and the color commentary from the eponymous Xanathar is amusing. Not needed to play or run a good story. But has some neat Archetypes and other things for creating characters. To that effect, Xanathar's Guide To Everything—amazingly enough, only the third book of new rules in at least as many years—fulfills the adage that less is more, insofar as the new rules provided therein bolster and supplement thos Good additional information that actually helps new players develop backgrounds and story for their characters.

Nice supplement to the core book. For players, I think this book could be a useful addition. It adds several options for character creation that might appeal as new ways to play as well as new backgrounds to draw on. It doesn't feel as massive as, say, prestige classes from 3rd edition rulebooks, but it's fun to see the Kensei and Arcane Archer again. As a DM, I feel like I didn't get as much out of it. By far, the most useful part was on traps: I admittedly had been de-prioritizing traps in my dungeon design since they didn't ad Virtually everything is a set of randomized tables, allowing you to create vaguely believable fantasy backstories, arm wrestling contests, or deadly traps in minutes.

New characters have a ton of fun, flavorful options, from the anime monk who fires tiny Despite being totally optional, I think it's fantastic--I'd recommend getting it before the Dungeon Master's Guide although the magic item list is important, there's a pretty decent list in the freely available System Reference Document. It has a bunch of optional class archetypes and spells. But the most compelling part for me is the 'This Is Your Life' section, which has a lot of aids for fleshing o Glad to see many of the touch ups they did for the Subclasses, some really needed a polish.

But was disappointed to see so many re-prints from Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. Why were they included? Takes away from the value of that book.
