Review
The revised Player's Manual received modifications to the character classes to make them more balanced, including updates for the bard, druid, monk, paladin, and ranger. Character spell lists have been revised and some spell levels adjusted. The skills have been consolidated a bit and clarified. An increased number of feats have been added to provide even more options for character customization in this area. Additionally, new and revised content instructs players on how to get the most out of D & D's miniature lineup that is planned to release in Fall 2003 from Wizards of the Coast, Inc.
