Is there an official errata sheet for Champions of Ruin? I was reading it yesterday and found some very jarring discrepancies from previous D&D and Realms rules. The general rule of thumb regarding discrepancies between charts and text is that text takes priority, but the feat for Flaying grants only one extra point of damage, while the piercing and bludgeoning feats (and the chart) provide for 1d6. Also, as far as I know/knew druids had to have Neutrality as at least one part of their alignment, yet Chazzar Ne is Chaotic Evil. Is this some rule change of which I was unaware because no one in my group has played a druid in ... uh ... about a decade? Is there a reason why Shade Hunters must be Evil, or is that an error? Having read about them, I must say that they seem like decent chaps and definitely the sort to have in your corner if your are battling Netherese minions of a greater goddess of evil! Or is their struggle against Shade too reminiscent of those uber-characters from whom Hasbro thinks we must be protected starting in 2008?

I don't know the reason, but I can say a lot of us here wondered the same thing. |

Well, I think we've reached a point now where we have to begin taking responsibility for the Realms as we know them, so in my campaign, henceforth, Shade Hunters need not be Evil. To the minute degree my opion has value, I hope that other DM's will follow suit, because I would like to play one.

You don't risk balance problem by removing alignement or "RP" restrictions on PrC, so have fun ! |

There were a lot of PrCs in that book that I felt were too restricted, either by alignment or by affiliation. |
