One D&D proposes more rules changes for fighters, wizards, and more

Dungeons & Dragons publisher Wizards of the Coast released new playtest materials for One D&D, the next iteration of the popular role-playing game, on Wednesday. The massive, 50-page packet features new rules for barbarians, fighters, sorcerers, warlocks, and wizards — all core character classes featured in the 5th edition Player’s HandbookFirst published in 2014 The packet is free to download for those with a D&D Beyond account.

Wizards’ Unearthed Arcana playtest packets are a holdover from the vigorous playtesting that preceded the launch of 5th edition D&D. They’re regularly used to allow fans to test-drive new classes, backgrounds, and rules before providing feedback directly to the developers. Recent releases even included changes to the Druid Class in order to make it more aligned with what’s shown on screen. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. The past Unearthed arcana has also hinted at major releases. These include the revamped Spelljammer settings and the rebooted Planescape settings, both of which are due to be released later this year.

Today’s playtest was released alongside a nearly hourlong video that goes into greater detail on their intent. Feedback will be open on May 17.
