Dungeons & Dragons EditionsOriginal | Basic | AD&D1E | AD&D2E | 3E | 4E | 5EAdvanced Dungeons & Dragons (2nd Edition) (1989-1999), commonly called AD&D2E, was the first full-scale revamp of Dungeons & Dragons following Basic Dungeons & Dragons and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st Edition. This edition renamed all demons, devils and the like to avoid the Satanic Panic that hit the game in The '80s (calling them instead tanar'ri, baatezu, and yugoloths), tweaked the combat system, threw out material they thought parents might object to, like half-orcs and assassins (who eventually returned with Satyrs and Bandits in the supplemental books The Complete Book of Humanoids and The Complete Thief's Handbook respectively), and other smallish changes.Later releases were Player's Options (1995) and Dungeon Master Option (1996), highly detailed sets of rules intended to expand and customize AD&D 2nd edition (which was re-released with new covers and artwork at the time). These included new interesting rules, mainly customization via a character points system allowing to easily build variants of basic classesnote Want a guerilla style fighter? Sharpshooter kit, Increased movement, Move Silently, specialization. Fencing wizard? Swashbuckler kit, proficiency group crossover, Armor, weapon selection, Combat bonus, weapon specialization, Extended spell duration, proficiency ( and maybe a fanciful magic taboo. And so on. and guidelines on creating new kits, combat options averting Padded Sumo Gameplay and even Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards trend,note Damage Typing, Critical Damage, Knockback, maneuvers more advanced than "hit it more" re-integration with Chainmail battle rules and new material.note lots of spells, skills and equipment However, fatal flaws in its central part Skills & Powers due to noticeable lack of proper coordination and playtestingnote late changes in sub-abilities, the new psionics system aping linear Hit Points and thought out so poorly that in a successful telepathic attack the attacker lost more than the target made it barely usable "as is", which demoted the PO book from the new generation to one more cherry-picked set of sourcebooks. | |

Magic Fire | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_16fdf53e | comment |
Magic Fire: In 2nd Edition AD&D, "fire" and "magic fire" were separate damage types and while most creatures would have the same degree of resistance to both, this was not a universal rule. For example a succubus had immunity to fire damage but only 50% resistance to magical fire damage. A few monsters had immunity to magical fire damage but no resistance to nonmagical fire at all. | |

Fictional Painting | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_20d71ade | comment |
Fictional Painting: "Blue on Bronze". An abstract swirl of deep blues and violets. If anyone studies the painting for 20 minutes, the painting will correctly answer any yes or no question. "Dragonnel-by-the-Cliff". A picture of a dragonnel (monster) perched on a rocky cliff over a river valley. If a person viewing the painting says the command word "fuga", the dragonnel will leave the painting and serve them. "The Gladiators". A large painting depicting four gladiators facing off against each other in a sand-covered arena. Anyone who passes in front of the painting without saying a password will be taken into the painting and have to fight the gladiators to the death. "Glorindel's Gates". A set of small paintings created by the wizard-bard Glorindel. Each one acts as a Gate spell, transporting the viewer to the place depicted in the painting. "Glorindel's Living Paintings". These large paintings each show a scene that acts as a TV picture, with things moving and changing as if they were real. "Igraine's Portraits". Each one of these pictures allows the viewer to telepathically communicate with the subject of the painting. If the subject is dead, there is a 50% chance of contacting their soul or spirit. "The Watchers". This work depicts a wooded area with heavy undergrowth. Anyone who looks at it carefully can see the eyes of creatures looking through the brush. anyone who looks at it for too long can have their mind transferred into that of a small woodland animal living nearby. "Widow's Walk". This painting is of the crowded dockside of a busy port. Anyone who looks at it for 10 minutes becomes immune to all divination magic and psionics directed at him for the next eight hours. | |

| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_2c120373 | comment |
Disintegration Chamber: From the Tome of Magic supplement, the Disintegration Chamber is a cubical magic item that can be as large as a room 10 feet on a side. When any kind of matter is put inside the chamber and the activation button is pushed, the matter is destroyed. One of these can be used to execute creatures. | |

Gold–Silver–Copper Standard: D&D is one of the early trope codifiers. Prices are usually listed in g.p., unless they're small prices, in which case they're listed in s.p. or c.p.. The exchange rates were as follows: 10 c.p. = 1 s.p. 5 s.p. = 1 e.p. 2 e.p. = 1 g.p. 5 g.p. = 1 p.p. | |

Scunthorpe Problem: During editing, Encyclopedia Magica, Volume 1 had a search-and-replace run to change "mage" to "wizard." Unfortunately, it also changed "damage" and "image" to "dawizard" and "iwizard". Another search-and-replace to change "cleric" to "priest" changed "clerical" to "priestal". | |

Honor Before Reason | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_44fc28e8 | comment |
Honor Before Reason: The Cavalier "class kit" version in 2nd Edition was extreme about this, to a point that, if a party member was in one-on-one combat, they refused to help, even if the ally was 'losing'. The original version was also pretty bad - in combat they would charge the most powerful enemy in range as soon as they could regardless of the tactical situation or even allies in their way! | |

Mystical Plague: In 2E, the wizard spell Contagion from Player's Handbook infects one subject with non-virulent disease, and the cleric spell Breath of Death (reversed Breath of Life) from Tome of Magic affects an entire community. Anyone who fails a saving throw vs. death magic is infected with a disease that is fatal in 1-6 weeks. | |

Elemental Weapon | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_4ddf989e | comment |
Elemental Weapon: Tales of the Lance. A Frostreaver is a heavy battle axe made of ice gathered from a secret location on Icewall Glacier. One full day of above freezing temperature or 1-6 hours at warm temperatures (50 degrees Fahrenheit) causes the Frostreaver to melt. Module Rary the Traitor. Lord Robilar wields the Blade of Black Ice, which was created by the demigod Iuz himself out of ice. Dragon magazine #127. The bow Ice Fang can create and fire arrows of ice out of water vapor in the air. The arrows do double damage against creatures that use or dwell in fire. In temperatures of 120 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, the arrows have half normal range. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Things are drifting closer to the baseline most 21st-century players would expect from "modern", 3e-or-higher D&D, Pathfinder and other d20 System derivatives, but there were still a number of leftover elements from the game's old testament that would see adjustment throughout the 90s: In general, a lot of the language in the core books was a bit obsessed with trying to draw historical parallels as examples for stats, classes and the like, even moreso than 1e. This may have been an attempt to deflect away Satanic Panic allegations and justify the game's existence with "educational" parallels (despite some of the historical comparisons seeming more than a bit silly). As noted above, half-orcs are completely gone as a core race option. They would return, alongside a plethora of other options, in The Complete Book of Humanoids. Similarly, assassins have been completely excised from the PHB. Bards become a core option in their place. Racial ability score caps remain a thing, though they are less stringent than 1e was. Racial class restrictions remain but are also fairly less stringent at baseline; clerics and thieves can now be of any race, and racial class level caps are gone. Bards, oddly, are restricted to humans and half-elves. Charisma remains mostly about the number of henchmen you can command, and henchmen remain a fairly significant part of the rules-as-written experience. And on this note, Fighters continue to retain their "attract a fighting force via lordship" perk at ninth level as they did in the previous edition. The trick being that, previously, the wording for how this worked was kind of vague (they just "attracted men-at-arms", with the general assumption being that you could recruit a force up to your given Charisma's cap in henchmen). 2e completely detaches this from Charisma, giving you a set of tables to roll on for the Fighter's new force. The trick here? This time, the depending on roll results, the force can be upwards of one hundred and fifty people. Even "smaller" results will end up with a force of around seventy heavily-armored cavalrymen. Fighters no longer attract a force of henchmen, they attract an army unit. This, once again, could be an absolute nightmare for a DM to try and manage, so it often got left to the wayside and modified by individual settings (especially ones where the rules-as-written in the Player's Handbook simply didn't work for the setting) but could lead to some truly epic moments for players and DMs who put in the work to try and figure it all out. This edition would be the last hurrah of this concept of "Fighter", with editions to follow focusing on giving them other perks (and turning army management into a campaign option all players could participate in, if it was present at all). | |

Human-Demon Hybrid: Cambions are monsters in the 1st and 2nd edition, described as the progeny of a male demon and a female human (who always died in childbirth). The 3rd edition replaced them with the "Half-Fiend" template which could be applied to non-humanoid beings like dragons, giants, and magical beasts but stated that cambion is a term that was often used for Half-Fiendish humanoids. | |

Armor and Magic Don't Mix | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_6243b83b | comment |
Armor and Magic Don't Mix: Magic users/wizards are simply forbidden to wear armor under the standard rules. There were exceptions made in later supplements, such as 2nd Edition class kits which allow a wizard with that kit to wear armor. Druids are only allowed to wear armor (and other equipment) made from "natural" materials (wood, hides, stone, etc.) or else their powers are unusable. With just the core rulebooks (Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monster Manual), this restricts druids to wearing relatively weak armor (leather armor and wooden or leather shields). | |

Mundangerous: Marbles are mundane items that don't even cost a single gold piece, rolling on from The Complete Thief's Handbook. They are quite effective against anything with legs not noted for amazing agility. Instead of a saving throw (automatically going up as you level up), victims fall down, becoming vulnerable and losing time to get up unless they made a Dexterity check. | |

Beginner's Luck | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_76fae7ed | comment |
Beginner's Luck: The sourcebook Greyhawk Adventures includes optional creation rules that involve starting as zero-level characters — that is, as beginners before any specific Character Class is chosen. Among these rules are the "Luck" one, which consists in trying to perform a task you're not fully trained in by "trusting luck". On a lucky roll, you can attain Insight or Great Insight, allowing you to temporarily perform like a 12th-level character. The example given contrasts a trained cleric carefully attempting to Turn Undead on a vampire using the proper words and faith, with the overeager newbie who resorts to thrusting the holy symbol in the vampire's face and screaming "BOO!", startling the undead so much that it can work. | |

| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_80491c2f | comment |
"Open!" Says Me: Even opening an unlocked door requires a character to roll against his Strength. The chance for an average-strength person to open an unlocked door is 1 in 3. You might have to bang yourself against the door several times before it'll open. Forcing opening a locked door can only be accomplished by someone super-strong (18/91 strength or higher), and even then the chance of success is quite small — and if you fail you can never try to force open that same door again. | |

Chainmail Bikini | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_9bfbf9f3 | comment |
Chainmail Bikini: Despite the greater emphasis on family-friendliness mentioned above, artwork featuring lady adventurers in titillating outfits remained a semi-regular sight in 2nd edition. This would be the last edition for such things, as D&D3 pushed even harder into family-friendliness, curbing that kind of blatant fanservice almost as harshly as this edition curbed Satanic Panic bait. | |

Shields Are Useless | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_a211f531 | comment |
Shields Are Useless: Played straight. A nonmagical shield improves your armor class by only one (1) step, and then only if the attack comes from the front or front-flank and the shield-user isn't stunned or knocked prone. A fighter, paladin, or ranger is always far more effective with a weapon in his off-hand than he is with a shield in it. Since clerics and assassins can use shields, but can't wield two weapons at the same time and don't have many two-handed weapons to choose from, they won't have anything to lose by equipping a shield, but the gain is still minimal. | |

Luck Manipulation Mechanic: In the Forgotten Realms setting during 2nd Edition, certain clerics of Tymora, the goddess of luck, have the granted power to re-roll a die once per day. Similarly, some clerics of Beshaba, goddess of misfortune, have the ability to force enemies to re-roll their dice. | |

Druid | |

Druids are only allowed to wear armor (and other equipment) made from "natural" materials (wood, hides, stone, etc.) or else their powers are unusable. With just the core rulebooks (Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monster Manual), this restricts druids to wearing relatively weak armor (leather armor and wooden or leather shields). | |

Wall of Text | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_d94ff9b3 | comment |
Wall of Text: Much like many of the 1st edition books, a lot of the core books and setting books got infamous for having page after page of pure text with little visual distinction to break the monotony (or help the reader keep flow on the page through potentially dry rules discussion). While it wasn't as bad about using tiny text to utterly fill a page, it could still get bad in places; the Greyhawk boxed sets are especially infamous for using text in three columns, making it a bit of a pain for some readers to work their way through the entire page due to having to constantly shift lines. | |

Bag of Holding: A fairly low-level spell is "Deeppockets", which temporarily enchants a wizard's robe with a large number of pockets so that they became miniature bags of holding. No matter how many pockets it has, the robe as a whole can hold no more than 100 pounds and 5 cubic feet, but it weighs only 10 pounds, and the pockets don't bulge at all. | |

Role-Playing Endgame: The basic game books only provide support up to Level 20. The Dungeon Master Guide encourages PCs at that point to retire to a "semi-NPC" status where they leave active play and devote their time to non-adventuring duties but remain present in the game world. Zig-zagged when the 1996 release of High-Level Campaigns added support for levels up to 30. | |

Extra-Dimensional Shortcut | |
| Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (Tabletop Game) / int_ffcc242c | comment |
Extra-Dimensional Shortcut: A character can enter the Ethereal Plane, move at tremendous speed to another location corresponding to a particular place on the Prime Material Plane, then leave the Ethereal Plane at that place. In the Greyhawk Adventures supplement, the deity Istus could use her Spindle of Fate to cast a Web of Stars, which sent the targets to another plane of existence. Once there, a creature that knew the way could travel the Web and arrive at any desired location. In the Forgotten Realms Adventures supplement, after reaching level 10, specialty priests of the deity Bhaal could use the ability Plane Skipping. This involved traveling to Bhaal's home plane of Gehenna, moving an appropriate distance on Gehenna and then returning to the priest's original plane. Each 10 feet the priest moved on Gehenna caused them to return 1 mile away from where they started from. The entire trip took about 20 minutes plus the time necessary to move the distance on Gehenna. The spell Shadow Walk allowed the caster and any creatures he/she touched to partially enter the Plane of Shadow. This allowed them to move at a speed of 7 miles per 10 minutes (42 miles per hour) with regard to the Prime Material Plane. When the journey was completed, they could return to the Prime Material Plane at the desired location. | |
