WHAT WONDERFUL WITCHERY IS THIS?
A magical mixture of rules options for the world's greatest roleplaying game.
The wizard Tasha, whose great works include the spell Tasha’s hideous laughter, has gathered bits and bobs of precious lore during her illustrious career as an adventurer. Her enemies wouldn’t want these treasured secrets scattered across the multiverse, so in defiance, she has collected and codified these tidbits for the enrichment of all.
EXPANDED SUBCLASSES. Try out subclass options for every Dungeons & Dragons class, including the artificer, which appears in the book.
MORE CHARACTER OPTIONS. Delve into a collection of new class features and new feats, and customize your character’s origin using straightforward rules for modifying a character’s racial traits.
INTRODUCING GROUP PATRONS. Whether you're part of the same criminal syndicate or working for an ancient dragon, each group patron option comes with its own perks and types of assignments.
SPELLS, ARTIFACTS & MAGIC TATTOOS. Discover more spells, as well as magic tattoos, artifacts, and other magic items for your campaign.
EXPANDED RULES OPTIONS. Try out rules for sidekicks, supernatural environments, natural hazards, and parleying with monsters, and gain guidance on running a session zero.
A PLETHORA OF PUZZLES. Ready to be dropped into any D&D adventure, puzzles of varied difficulty await your adventurers, complete with traps and guidance on using the puzzles in a campaign.
Full of expanded content for players and Dungeon Masters alike, this book is a great addition to the Player's Handbook and the Dungeon Master’s Guide. Baked in you'll find more rule options for all the character classes in the Player's Handbook, including more subclass options. Thrown in for good measure is the artificer class, a master of magical invention. And this witch's brew wouldn't be complete without a dash of added artifacts, spellbook options, spells for both player characters and monsters, magical tattoos, group patrons, and other tasty goodies.
D&D Celebration (September 18th - 20th), an epic live event with panels, gameplay, & previews of the book and D&D Adventurers League Season 10 content! All proceeds going to Extra Life (three kobolds in a trenchcoat merchandise!).
The alternate brick-and-mortar store exclusive cover is amazing.
When can I order it for DnDB? I don't want a hard cover.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Ancient GM, started in '76, have played almost everything at some point or another.
I run/play Mercer-style games, heavy on the RP and interaction, light on the combat-monster and rule-lawyering. The goal is to tell an epic story with the players and the players are as involved in the world building as the GM is. I run and play a very Brechtian style, am huge into RP theory and love discussing improv and offers.
I wonder WHICH of the UA subclasses made to the book. I think we will see the Wildfire Druid, Aberrant Mind Sorcerer, Genie Warlock, Phantom Rogue and Armor Artificer, but I don't know what else.
If I'm reading the press release correctly, they're reprinting the Artificer in this book.
Is this going to be a revision, or just a straight reprint? I guess no one should be surprised this happened, it's the same thing WotC did with SCAG content reprinted in XGtE.
I'm hopeful that they will expand on the Sidekick rules and not just reprint the material from the Essentials Kit. I think the Sidekick UA was much better. I hope we see more of it here.

i assume primarily it'll give AL players a non eberron specific book with it in for their PHB+1 rule
The product listing usually has been up pretty quickly after an announcement of a new book... however I believe the first tweet by Elle Osili-Wood went out EARLIER then it was supposed to at 10am Eastern instead of 10am Pacific (also Wizards is based out the West Coast so 7am Pacific is a LITTLE too early to be making big announcements). I'm sure we'll see the pre-order page come up soon on DDB... but they were probably counting on it going live at 1pm Eastern not 10am Eastern. Amazon's page hasn't been changed yet either and that usually changes really shortly after past announcements as well.
The original "feather_and_tart" file used to tease this new book a few days ago had the following information in it's metatags: Comments: Syrinscape spell (I knew it was made from Syrinscape because it had that distinct feel to it... however I cannot find this file anywhere and there is NO Tasha's Hideous Laughter soundfile in the D&D spellcaster files recently released), Album Artist: Dungeons & Dragons, Album "August 24, 10 AM Pacific".
The tweet from Elle Osili-Wood went out at 10am Eastern on the dot. An hour later at 11am Eastern Gaurav Gulati tweeted out his announcement, which was also retweeted by the official Dungeons & Dragons account, with a note stating that Mica Burton up next... then Mica Burton's went out at 11:35am Eastern.
I'm so happy about this announcement. I really like Xanathar's and I'm super stoked to see Xanathar's 2. Gimme some optional rules and subclasses, baby.

Very hyped for this!
Anyone know how long it usually takes for D&D Beyond to list the sourcebooks?
Edit: Aw, Nebuchidnezzar beat me to it... :D
Will the expansion be available on DnD Beyond?
It is unusual not to see it as an option here: https://dnd.wizards.com/products/tabletop-games/rpg-products/tashas-cauldron-everything?fbclid=IwAR2rfvk3QIHgQMeD73ASF2mzWyonvkKhNoVnM0QOORyaz_f8ls55wZQP-A4

I am going to guess it will be just a straight reprinting of the class with a new subclass added in as well.
