Official D&D Errata & Rule Updates (2012 April 30)
By D&D QA

From time to time, Wizards of the Coast publishes errata and minor updates to Dungeons & Dragons sourcebooks.

Talk about this errata here.

On time, too!
Here are the PHB essentia, in my opinion:
  • Three Basic Rules (p 11)
  • Power Types and Usage (p 54)
  • Skills (p178-179)
  • Feats (p 192)
  • Rest and Recovery (p 263)
  • All of Chapter 9 [Combat] (p 264-295)

A player needs to read the sections for building his or her character -- race, class, powers, feats, equipment, etc. But those are PC-specific. The above list is for everyone, regardless of the race or class or build or concept they are playing.

Note: Blood Money is an adventure from Dungeon 200, not 199

Since fixes like that come as additional options from articles and not rules updates... be prepared to wait a while longer.

Practical gameplay runs by neither RAW or RAI, but rather "A Compromise Between The Gist Of The Rule As I Recall Getting The Impression Of It That One Time I Read It And What Jerry Says He Remembers, Whatever, We'll Look It Up Later If Any Of Us Still Give A Damn." Erachima

Looks like the changes to the 'Compiled Rules Updates' document are still pending?

Sadly (for me) looks like the issues I highlighted with the errata ( community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/758... ) have not been picked up so far.

Does anyone have any idea when that Compiled Rules Updates document will be updated?  I do not recall seeing any delay at all previously -- they just put up everything at once.  And it is not as though there are a lot of updates this time around either.  Are they trying to discourage interest in 4E by making it more difficult to assemble the complete errata?

Looks like its still pending. Maybe they will bring it in to line at the end of the current month?

Well, we are about a week away from the next errata and the 'Compiled Rules Updates' document is still pending the April changes.

My hope is -
1. The May errata will come out on time;
2. The April and May errata is inserted into the CRU document at the time the May errata is issued;
3. The issues with the errata I highlighted ( community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/758... ) are addressed.

My fear is that the errata may not receive the attention it needs with the launch of the DDN playtest this week.

Fingers crossed!
