Just bring back a la carte at DND Beyond. Then you can make recommendations for newbies, but people can make their own "starter packs".

DId you know? The DDB marketplace has REMOVED the option for purchasing one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters "a la carte". Now you ALWAYS have to buy the ENTIRE book instead.

For those interested, a quote from Brian Perry from his AMA on Reddit
'First, we know that a la carte disappeared without much notice, and we apologize for the way it was handled. Things like this AMA help create the level of transparency the community deserves. We are going to be working on ways to give players access to smaller packages of content based on what character they want to build. A la carte exactly like before is unlikely. What was starting to happen with tens of thousands of items needed to be individually checked for entitlements by our services. This was impacting site speed and stability.'
It's a shame they won't be bringing back the same functionality, but anything is better than nothing.

Probably because it was packed full of misinformation about the starter packs?
