all right we have the new monster manual
0:01
so let's talk about what's changed let's
0:03
start with cats I've got my cat Kora
0:06
right here because she won't leave my
0:07
lap while I do this so what has changed
0:11
in the 2014 stat block cats didn't have
0:14
dark vision and couldn't jump very well
0:16
with the strength of just three they
0:18
could only get about a foot off the
0:19
ground both of those things if you own
0:21
cats feels very very silly now
0:24
apparently the story here was one of the
0:27
designers for the 2014 rules had an ant
0:30
with a cat that couldn't see in the dark
0:33
so they didn't know any better so in the
0:35
2024 rules theyve cleaned things up a
0:38
bit cats now have dark vision like they
0:40
really should and they have the new
0:42
leaper trait which lets them use their
0:44
dexterity to jump instead of using their
0:46
strength now with a dexterity of 15 that
0:50
means that they can jump pretty high uh
0:54
probably about as much as a real cat
0:56
could but double check my math on that I
0:58
honestly don't know how high my cat can
