Unearthed Arcana Errata
Dragon magazine published errata for Unearthed Arcana in issue #103. The article states that the changes would be incorporated
into later prints, but this revision never transpired.
Thanks very much to Ewen McCairns for the transcription of this article!

Dwarves, gnomes, dark elf males: -1
Halflings*, humans*, wild elves, valley elves: 0
Half-elves*, sylvan elves*, dark elf females: +1
Gray elves*, high elves*: +2 * – Treat the indicated pair on each of these lines as being of the same race for purposes of effective comeliness; e.g.,
halflings are just as attractive (or repulsive) to humans as humans are to each other, and vice versa.

level in the ranger class, but a half-elf ranger with the same ability scores can rise as high as 11th level in the class. A hill dwarf
assassin is restricted to the level limits shown on the table, since a hill dwarf cannot be both a multi-classed character and an
assassin.

* With regard to the reactions of races other than elves, half-elves are considered as a specific racial type. However, elves will react to half-elves as if the half-
elf were either a half-elf or a full-blooded elf of the same racial type as the half-elf's non-human ancestor, whichever is the more negative reaction.
** Preference for half-elves of dark descent, hatred of all other half-elves.

The scope of the fighter class is expanded in two major respects. First, fighters are able to employ any and all of the new weapon
types detailed in this book. Second is the benefit of weapon specialization, described below, which is available to all single-classed
(but not multi-classed) fighters and rangers.

strength, dexterity, and practice to improve. A successful pole vault requires at least a 30' running start and a pole at least two-
thirds the length of the distance to be vaulted. The pole is dropped when the vault occurs. The vaulter can land on his or her feet
atop a surface of 1/2' less height than the maximum height of the pole vault, if so desired, assuming such a surface exists.
Otherwise the vaulter lands, tumble-rolls, and is on his or her feet in 1 segment. Non-thief-acrobats cannot effectively pole vault.

Character Age
A barbarian player character will be 15-19 (14 + 1d4) years old at the start of his or her career. The starting age for a cavalier
player character is the same as for a cleric of that race – 500 + 10d10 for an elf, 40 + 2d4 for a half elf, and 18 + 1d4 for a human.

Page 107:
A stunned opponent will be so affected for 1-10 segments, during which time no actions may be taken. Any spells in the process of
being cast are lost. If an opponent that is already stunned is stunned by a later attack, the opponent must save versus death
magic to avoid being knocked unconscious for 1-4 rounds. A stunned opponent defends without benefit of dexterity or shield, and
is + 4 to be hit.
