Dungeons & Dragons subclasses sync up with 2024 rules in Subclasses Revivified
As players of the massively popular Dungeons & Dragons fifth edition adapt to the new-and-improved D&D 2024, theyve found many of their favorite subclasses left on the cutting room floor in the name of streamlined design. Polygon has sung the praises of this new update on multiple occasions, but even the most adaptable D&D player is hesitant to leave behind a precious character whose subclass didnt get an official update. Fear not, dear adventurer, as a team of third-party designers have crafted Subclasses Revivified.The supplement includes nearly 70 updated subclasses including 10 Cleric Domains, nine Wizard schools, six fighter subclasses, and more encapsulating every official subclass left out of the new Players Handbook. Rather than force players to abandon their PCs or reconstruct their character with builds that didnt quite fit, this 109-page text offers D&D fans the chance to revivify their 5e characters.Created by 14 independent tabletop designers whove worked extensively in making third-party D&D supplements, as well as games for companies like MCDM, Evil Hat, and Cubicle 7, Subclasses Revivified isnt just opportunistic shlock. In an interview with Destructoid, designer Sebastian Ye said project lead Adam Hancock encouraged [the design team] to innovate and to take the opportunity to address pain points with existing subclasses.Along with making these subclasses compatible with D&D 2024, the revisions add what the designers call quality of life updates. That includes starting all subclasses at third level, balancing power levels across classes, and developing the mechanics to be more in line with a subclass given theme. The language, formatting, and style of the text has also been updated, using 2024s new jargon, such as D20 Tests and Emanations.The pdf of Subclasses Revivified is currently available for $27.95 on DriveThruRPG, where it has already reached Silver Best Seller status. The first 40 pages are available for preview on the site, and discounted copies are available for those who cant afford the retail price.
