Edit , IDT this is wizards of the coast sanctioned but I found If a group is what you want than click this rlfgAs for learning and stuff I like Colville ' s YouTube channel but I learned it off hand from a guy I know So I suggest watching a game at a friendly local game store , ask to watch of course . You may not sit in on the edition you want but it ' s technically almost the same . As for editions , I started with 3 . 5 , played a little 4 e , looked into ADD 2 e but made my home in 5 e . It ' s the easiest to use in my opinion .
