Not much info yet, but it could be an interesting and helpful product for Dark Sun campaigns. Now I only need a German version of it...

Feb 05, 2006 11:26:09 All books in this series should be taken with a grain of salt as they're not always applicable to every setting. You won't wind frenzied berserkers of monks from the complete warrior book in DS. Quite possible there will be useful classes but not all I assure you.

Personally, I allow every single class (except psionics) in the group I lead (Planescape) and I have regretted it more than once.

I have found most of the classes from the Complete... series can be adapted to DS without too much trouble. There is a thread around here somewhere with suggestions on doing this.

EDIT: Here it is.

Feb 05, 2006 14:51:11 Like with all non-core books, there could be problems just letting everything from them go into any campaign. DM's have to take a great many things into consideration. The Complete series is hardly alone in this, however several of the ideas in them so far have found their way into my campaigns -- and at the same time, there is a number of thngs I simply disallow. I knew there'd be a Complete Psionics all along, who was it that had disagreed with me vehemently on it? Was that someone on this forum?

Definitely six books in the series, so far:

Complete Warrior
Complete Arcane
Complete Divine
Complete Adventurer
Complete Psionics
Complete Mage

Complete Mage, you may ask? Yep. And it doesn't overlap with Complete Arcane, per one teaser posted by an NDA-bound author.

Feb 06, 2006 9:41:46 One can only imagine I guess at what's going to be in the Complete Psionic. Kinda neat that they're putting the erudite class in, despite my not really being all that impressed with it. I wonder if they'll come up with another Cerebremancer type in it too.

As for the Complete Mage? I'd be curious to see what's going to be in that. It strikes me as a redundant product if it's serious. I can't imagine anything good coming from it if it's just going to be the Complete Arcane part II.
