so, why doesn't the Superior Technique fighting style give me a digital choice that i can then keep on the sheet and view automatically?
its not, like, annoying but it is kinda weird. after all, every other feature that has further choices than a single one gives you those choices digitally automatically
talking about this feature ofc

It's because of how fighting styles and manoeuvres exist in the system, it's not currently possible to nest them like that

The snippet code used in a snippet field would be {{savedc:xxx}} where xxx is STR, DEX, CON, WIS, INT, or CHA. Since it's a feat, you have to pick which of those abilities to use. Similar to how the Telekinetic or Telepathic feats have 3 choices, the system doesn't have the ability to pick that on the fly in a feat for the 3 different spellcasting abilities.
The tooltip used on the feat's description page would be [rule]saving throws[/rule] or [rule]saving throws;saving throw[/rule]

If you're trying to learn spells that aren't for Ranger/going beyond spells known, iirc it's almost the same thing. You have to make a custom feat or add to collection some of the feats in the homebrew list that will add said spell. It's a workaround, and the spell is always going to show up as "at will". I don't think there's an actual system to learn more spells like the Wizard interface.

Whenever you gain a sorcerer level, you can replace one spell you gained from this feature with another spell of the same level. The new spell must be an abjuration or a transmutation spell from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell list.

Currently the character sheet doesn't natively support the spell swapping of subclasses like Clockwork Soul

Not sure if thats an intended feature or a bug, If you are a 5th level Wizard but did not choose your subclass yet you cannot prepare 3rd level spells.

Well yes, of course that solves the issue.
modest pelican
all class progression assumes you have made the required selections previously
Putting the character sheet in an invalid state will result in things not behaving correctly
little plume
why would the character creation step me then continue without picking a subclass? Seems like an easy fix
modest pelican
I'm not sure what you mean by continue? Picking subclass and spells are both part of the same step of character creation; the class step
little plume
If not picking a subclass leads to things that are not intended than the easiest fix would be make picking the subclass a required step to continue. I hope I made this now a bit clearer for you to understand where im coming from.
edgy oriole
If not picking a subclass leads to things that are not intended than the easiest...
But sometimes the user wants to check other things in the character build flow before picking a subclass.... so I think the way it currently works is appropriate and flexible for users needs with the expectation that the person building the character knows that they need to select a subclass at some point to correctly use the character. But maybe they could put in a warning/alert that the user hasn't selected a subclass? So don't outright prevent the user from continuing but alert them that they are missing a subclass.
modest pelican
Which we do, all incomplete fields are highlighted

That's what I thought... 🙂

I don't believe so - can you think of an official rule in D&D that does that?
If it's in an official character option, then I'd look at how that was constructed.
dense cape
Good point.
Basically, an aura needs to grow at x level, whilst its damage also increases one die size every 4 levels
edgy oriole
In general, DnDBeyond only supports what the official rules support. And even then there are some recent rule additions that DnDBeyond still doesn't fully support (although I know the devs are working towards full support).
dense cape
Alright.
However, know some thing similar to the example?
Or could this be done completely in the "Actions" tab?
edgy oriole
Uh... honestly I'd maybe use a feat with 5 different levels or something like that? Unless it's a custom attack option.
So then as they level up, you can hand them the next level of the feat.
dense cape
Uh... honestly I'd maybe use a feat with 5 different levels or something like th...
Well, it's supposed to be a core subclass feature.
edgy oriole
Okay but mechanically what you're doing is not, as far as I can tell, possible inside DnDBeyond.
You may get close to it creating a custom feat - but have 5 versions for each 4 levels of the subclass (you did mention it gets bigger and causes more damage every 4 levels).
So at the right time, you give the appropriate leveled feat to the character with that class.
dense cape
Alright, hm...I'll see what I can do
edgy oriole
You might also want to check in in #homebrew and see if others have ideas on how to tackle this.

Basically, an aura needs to grow at x level, whilst its damage also increases on...
What’s the actual text description for this feature?
dense cape
Alright, got it. Let me type it in
When you join this order at 3rd level, you learn the secrets of the light that the Eldritch Stars give off, being partially transfigured by its insight but gaining the mastery to wield it against your enemies. When a Crimson Rite is active, you gain the additional benefits:
- You emanate bright light out to 5 ft. You can choose to suppress this light as a bonus action.
- You and allies within the radius have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.
- When a hostile creature enters the radius for the first time in a turn or ends its turn there, it must make an Intelligence saving throw against your Hemocraft DC, taking {{scalevalue}} force damage on a failure, no damage on a success. Aberrations have disadvantage on this saving throw.
At 15th level, the area of bright light you emanate becomes 10 ft.
Basically, it has the scalevalue of Crimson Rite, and the additional scaling of the increase in aura size
uneven lantern
What’s the current scale value?
I.E. what did this say before you replaced it with {{scalevalue}}?
uneven lantern
I’m trying to see if this can be replaced with another formula, without using scale value.
To do that, I need the original rules text.
dense cape
Well, that's it, really. I typed it in DDB first thing to try and get the experience to use it right
uneven lantern
So the original rules text doesn’t say when the die size increases?
dense cape
Yes. The level the scale values are set on are 3/5/11/17
Ruleswise, it consults the Crimson Rite table, but since I typed it into DDB firsthand, I used the integration instead of writing in the consult text
It does have an action associated with it, for easy access of rolling of damage, which uses the same level overrides, iirc
uneven lantern
Try this instead of the current {{scalevalue}}:
<b>1d{{2+2*(1+(classlevel+1)/6)@rounddown}}</b>
Then you can use {{scalevalue}} for the range instead.
stiff oracle
if i purchase the “player handbook (feat bundle)” for $3.99, will i get all 41 feats? and not have to purchase all the feats separately?

If that's the price showing, then yes.

Greetings all
is this is the correct place to ask about creating homebrew magic weapons in D&DBeyond?
edgy oriole
It’s about getting help if things aren’t working as expected mostly.
warm pivot
ok ill give it a shot, I am trying to create a Dagger that is +2 to Hit, and +4 Damage with a base Damage Die of 1D8, I cannot seem to find a way to make a 1d8 dagger, am I missing something obvious?
edgy oriole
Use longsword/rapier as the base item but label it and describe it as a dagger. Also give it the light and thrown properties.
This is unfortunately a limitation of the DnDBeyond tools
warm pivot
Ahhh! Excellent Idea! Thank you!
There is always another way, limitations are made to be overcome 8)
warm pivot
how do i make a dagger +2 to hit but +4 damage?
dense cape
Use longsword/rapier as the base item but label it and describe it as a dagger. ...
Iirc magic items still have the actions tab? So you could input a custom weapon action there.
warm pivot
Thank you Roxo, although i found it easier to modify the to hit and damage values within the characters inventory. It will serve for now.

Hey Gang!
Is it possible to "customise the origin" of a homebrewed Race?
For example, I've added a race to my homebrew collection, but want to swap Perception Proficiency for Medicine, is there an easy way to do this (preferably without the icon turning blue)
edgy oriole
Create a second version of that homebrewed race with the other option enabled?
red shoal
unfortunately i'm not the creator of the original homebrew

If a homebrew creator wants to support those rules, they need to add it into the homebrew itself.

The Belt of Fire Giant belt doesn’t seem to be changing the character’s AC to 25 on attunement. I’ve changed it manually for the time being, but I figured I’d bring it up.
peak igloo
It raises strenght, not AC to 25^^
And I tried it on one of my characters and it changes strenght accordingly on attunement.

The Belt of Fire Giant belt doesn’t seem to be changing the character’s AC to 25...
I recently used it on a character in a game and had the same experience as Anoth.. added the equipment to my character, clicked the box to wear it, then below in the attunement section to attune to it and Strength score became 25. 🙂

Wow. I’ve been playing D&D and using DDB for years and you’d think I would know how to differentiate the STR and AC. Brain fart moment. Thanks @peak igloo and @dawn violet!

How do I manage an artificer armorer's 9th level 2 free armor infusions?
It says I can only attune 4 things, but I should have an option for 2 more attunements for my armor.
I just can't find where
uneven lantern
When you click on the next infusion, there’s an option at the top to Override Infusion Limit.
neon anchor
not infusion limit, attunement
i have the infusions selected, its not adding them to my sheet though
uneven lantern
Armor Modifications does not increase your attunement limit.
neon anchor
Example, i have 8 infusions known, I can put helm of awareness on my helmet, but i can't attune to it to get the benefits of advantage initiative because im already attuned to the cloak of protection i made, and my other infusions
it says my armor can bear 2 infusions
each of the armor peices can bear an infusion, and they don't count against my existing ones
uneven lantern
But it also says they count as separate items.

I can still only attune to 4 things, infusions =/= attunement

No, there is no easy way to denote which spell you have in the spell storing item, since it changes every long rest.

so im homebrewing arcane trickster because im broke.
and arcane trickster has access to wizard spells right? for some reason even tho i added a spell list, the spell option feature seen in the character builder doesn't appear
thing is, it worked just fine before? and idk why it's not appearing now
i have "can cast spells" option to "yes" in the homebrew builder
i honestly have no idea what i did wrong

the spells thing doesn't show up and idfk what im doing wrong?

It has a class feature called Spellcasting, but that just has a snippet and description.
last spade
wha
uneven lantern
I’d suggest changing “Spell Prepare Type” to “-“, and “Knows All Spells” to “No”.
So it matches the official one.
Then you might need to wait 15 minutes or so before the character sheet picks up the changes.
last spade
does it show a spell column in the official one?
uneven lantern
What do you mean by “spell column”?
uneven lantern
The spellcasting feature has a table in the description, if that’s what you’re asking.
uneven lantern
I’d suggest changing “Spell Prepare Type” to “-“, and “Knows All Spells” to “No”...
You made the changes suggested here? ☝🏻
last spade
yep
uneven lantern
Like I said, it might take a few minutes for those changes to show up on the character sheet.
last spade
ah
uneven lantern
I’d wait a little longer still. 🤞🏻
last spade
im not a patient person but i guess
uneven lantern
Homebrew gets cached on the character sheets so things load faster during gameplay, where patience is at a premium,
The downside is that when you’re homebrewing outside of gameplay, then it takes a little longer while you wait for the cache to expire.
uneven lantern
I honestly don’t know when or exactly how the timing works out.
The best I can suggest is to try changing something obvious like a name or description.
Once you see that on the sheet, you can be sure you’ve got the latest changes.
(As an aside, I know you said money was tight, but did you know you can buy the subclass by itself instead of the whole book?)
last spade
how much is that?
uneven lantern
$1.99
And whatever you spend gets credited toward the cost of the book itself, too.
last spade
it still doesnt work
lh wait @uneven lantern , i hope you don't mind the ping but what're the other class features listed in arcane trickster?
uneven lantern
I don’t think they’d make a difference for spellcasting, but it’s all the official features for an Arcane Trickster.

why won't the homebrew work :'))
it worked just fine yesterday

Spellcasting
Mage Hand Legerdemain
Magical Ambush

i cant see mage hand nor the spell column
it worked yesterday, i saw the spell column and everything idk why its not working rn
i even did the same things
is this a bug??
i figured it out
apparently you're supposed to name the spellcasting feature as "Spellcasting"
i spelled it as Spell Casting
im gonna bury my head in sand for a bit
uneven lantern
Aha!
Yeah, to add spellcasting to a subclass, the system looks for a feature called “Spellcasting” or “Pact Magic”. Name’s gotta be exact.

Anyone else not able to see rolls in the Game Log without refreshing the page?
Just tested and currently there appears to be no issues. What immediately comes to mind—
-Do you have hardware acceleration turned on in your browser settings? I know it can sometimes affect dice rolling, though I can't currently recall it being connected to game log issues(it's still good to check though)
-Check the strength of your internet connection.
If you're still having issues, let me know and I'll ask around other members of the team who may be more knowledgable on this particular thing.

Here's what it looks like initially

The impacted character looks to have an invalid name (special characters like the / can cause issues). If the character Tamuj/Wander has their name changed to remove the /, does the results populate right away?
wide ore
It's not just his character
And also, this wasn't an issue when we played 2 weeks ago, and no one's name has changed
BTW, I did try turning off hardware acceleration on my browser, and it didn't change anything
final trellis
It generally is an issue with the naming of characters - without the URL to the impacted character we cant help further. When you have issues like this, please provide the URL of the character sheet.
wide ore
But it's not just one character affected... Everyone in the campaign, including the DM is unable to see the new rolls.
And, like I said, this wasn't a problem 2 weeks ago, and no one's name has changed
the url for my character sheet is https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/75239685

timid tusk
Good morning, I asked in #dnd-rules and was refered here. I am a bit confused with building a character. Is a brass dragonborn, I tried both the PHB and the Fizban versions. At first I had (supposedly) the Dragon Hide Feat on my char, but after simulating leveling and alike that vanished. I tried making a new char and the 10**+3+**DexMod AC bonus when unarmored no longer shows up. In the building options I do not find any trace of the racial Feat "Dragon Hide". Am I blind and somehow miss the right checkbox or do I have a bug? (Link: https://ddb.ac/characters/90768672/vY2tON)
Oh, I found it. on the char sheet it says You have no feats chosen, you can add feats outside of normal progression in the manage screen. But it somehow does not show up during creation.
modest pelican
You've selected the Dragon Hide feat, which gives you an AC of 13 + Dex (total of 15 with your +2 Dex)
That AC only applies when not wearing armor, so if you equip armor, your AC may drop
timid tusk
yes, on the character sheet itself, after I saw the option to manualöly add it there after. But during the creation process it was nowhere to find
modest pelican
That's because your character is a level 1 dragonborn fighter; none of which qualify you for a feat automatically
Only variant human and custom lineage automatically get a level 1 feat, and fighters don't get the option for a feat until they get their first ability score improvement
timid tusk
I see... strange, on my 1st try of the level 1 char I automatically had it. Also, after manually adding it to the one copy, it now re-appears on my other char. Seems to be a bug somehow. Thanks, now I know 🙂
so it is a class feat and no race feat (like stated by the rules)
timid tusk
GOT IT!!!! confusing but now all is clear... You need to have the right race, so you can choose it using your class.
modest pelican
Classes get Ability Score Improvements at different levels, and if you're using the feat rule, you can choose a feat instead of an ability score improvement
timid tusk
Yes. The "Racial Feats" term just completely misleaded me. Thx alot 🙂
dapper summit
How do I add a Feat to a homebrew background, similar to how Astral Drifter is set up?
uneven lantern
The backgrounds presented in Astral Adventurer's Guide grants you a Feat upon taking the selected Background. While the automation of this feature isn't currently supported, you can manually add the relevant feat from your background via the Features & Traits section in the Character Sheet, then clicking on "Manage Feats".

uneven lantern
Seems like a homebrew spell where some put that subcless in the “Available for Class(es)” field.
Removing it there should solve the issue.
zenith plover
That's exactly what it is. Odd that it shows up even when someone has homebrew turned off though.
I guess we should message the person who made the spell...?
uneven lantern
Better to make a homebrew copy of the subclass and it there, if you want to make the spell available for that subclass.
zenith plover
Agreed, but the person who made the spell isn't the person having this problem. Can Beyond staff reject the homebrew being published because of that issue with that feedback? Or is it better for one of us to reach out to them and let them know?

If you want rollable dice, make sure to click “Display as Attack”.

hello, a player of mine's sheet is behaving very weirdly. the skill bonuses are way too big for his ability scores and proficiencies.
he is level 3, with a +2 proficiency bonus. (the half proficincies and expertises are from being a Bard).
yet these numbers are gigantic for the calculation that should be going on. Slieght of hand for example should only be a +4 because he has Half prof and +3 DEX
i also have the sheet link if it is needed

a lot of equipment dont have a cost or weight whats up with that
There are several reasons an equipment item might not have a cost or weight:
- The cost or weight is negligible. Gemstones have a cost, but no weight given. A pouch of gemstones doesn't weight much more than the pouch itself.
- The cost or weight is EXTREME. An airship is so heavy, you're not going to put it in your backpack. An antimatter rifle is essentially a magic item, worth more than several kingdom's wealth.
- There is no official cost or weight given. The alms box is part of the Priest's Pack, yet does not have any description beyond that.

can someone explain what this error is? Is it because I copied a spell table and inputted my own spell list into it? I'm unsure what data I've linked to this class besides that.
from what I could tell, most of the forums said to copy a spell table from another subclass, paste it, then fill in your spells
so I'm not sure if its the spell table or not

Any hyperlinks at all could cause that error.
But unless you’re trying to publish it to the global DDB community, you can just ignore those errors and use it as-is.
It gets shared with your campaigns automatically.

I just created a character with a custom background, but the chosen Skill and Tool Proficiencies are not indicated on the character sheet. The chosen options are still present when I view the background in the character editor. Used the web page on Chrome. Has anybody else had this issue? Am I doing something wrong, or is there a server issue at the moment?
Just had a friend take a look - seems custom background is also broken for him. This leads me to conclude that it is a general issue. Where can I check if the dndbeyond-team is aware of this issue? Don't want to ping anybody if the issue is already known 🙂

If you change the options in the builder to something else and then change back it should update. Generally custom backgrounds have caching issues

Cold Breath [rollable](Recharge 5–6);{"diceNotation":"1d6","rollType":"recharge","rollAction":"Cold Breath"}[/rollable]. The worg exhales a blast of freezing wind in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw, taking 18 rollable;{"diceNotation":"4d8","rollType":"damage","rollAction":"Cold Breath","rollDamageType":"cold"}[/rollable] cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
and if i wanted to change the name to Rot Breath do i need to change the everywhere it says cold breath to Rot Breath?

rollAction is just the name, so if you want it called “Rot Breath” instead, then yeah, you can change it there.

sly ridge
I asked this the other day but don’t think there was a response. With the Oathbow is there a way on ddb to shut off the sworn enemy? I couldn’t find it so it was always rolling the extra damage.
uneven lantern
It doesn't normally roll that extra damage at all.
Are you using some browser extension that's changing that?
sly ridge
Not that I know of
sly ridge
It doesn't normally roll that extra damage at all.
When it’s equipped it shows the 3d6 in the item itself. Maybe I added a homebrew of the bow by accident? But rolling hit then rolling damage added the sworn enemy damages in. I could right click and roll damage without it but it would add in my sharpshooter damage that way
In my mind I was kind of expecting a toggle on the item - similar to pact blade
uneven lantern
Yeah, that definitely doesn't sound like standard behavior.
What browser are you using?
sly ridge
What browser are you using?
Chrome. I do have the extension installed but I didn’t expect that to cause an issue
uneven lantern
Which "the extension" is that?
sly ridge
Which "the extension" is that?
Sorry, beyond 20. But I was rolling in chrome on ddb not in the VTT.
Maybe it was affecting it though, trying to duplicate from my phone on ddb or the ddb app but it’s not. Maybe a seeing somewhere was affecting it.
uneven lantern
Yeah, Beyond20 is not an official extension.
And anything that intentionally modifies the standard behavior of the site is bound to lead to non-standard behavior.
sly ridge
Yea must be what was causing it. I’ve always had it and used it with ddb so I’m just not aware of what is native site and what is beyond 20. Ty for the help though appreciate it

Homebrew in a user's collection will always share with others in a campaign - content sharing isnt required for homebrew to share
floral wadi
that's problematic because as a DM I only allow homebrew that's approved and its not always apparent what is and isn't homebrew, for example a spell showing up in the druid's "known spells" list and I have no idea who has it in their collection, but I never heard of it before and had to look it up to find out its homebrew
final trellis
You would probably be best having a discussion with the group, to advise them to check their homebrew collections and also ensure they aren't selecting things that aren't from official sources (unless first okay'd by yourself as the DM).
floral wadi
just clicking on it from the character sheet under manage spells doesn't show the source of the spell or have an option to expand on it, it requires opening another window and searching for it manually
final trellis
It will in the sidebar - you'll see a source field for offical content or a version vield for homebrew
floral wadi
oh it shows Source on official spells, just not this one particular homebrewed one, I see

Have a campaign where I have shared selective resources. However, all my players seem to be able to see races that are not part of the resources I have shared. Am I misunderstanding how Content Management works?
And if so, how would I restrict the players in the campaign to only use certain sources?
edgy oriole
Players can access any option they personally have access to or content that is shared in a shared campaign.
That said, even if you deny access to certain books, those character options are still available - only the book text is made not accessible (except to the DM/owner of the material).
Your best option is to discuss what character options are allowed at your game with the players.

Thanks ahead!

fringe silo
Hello, How do I create a custom feat and have it display relevant information under features & traits
this is what I have so far, and I have tried to add stuff via actions and spells and it doesn't show anything
Like under the fey teleporation it has a blurb, and neither the description or snippet boxes in the feat details do anything to change that
fringe silo
is there some sort of lag between the homebrew being changed and then it being updated on the charater sheet?
modest pelican
There is caching (to reduce server load and improve stability) that means there is a lag between changes being made and them appearing, yeah

that seems like it should be advertised somewhere because i was tearing my hair out for about 45 minutes before I realized there was something lagging
anyways, so I got a sort of thing to work, I’m wondering if there is some sort of comprehensive documentation or tutorial out there that explains what displays what where

So a newby question. I'm creating a homebrew background in ddb and in the equipment I want to add quantities to the equipment description. I know how to add a "Bottle Glass", but how do I indicate that you get 3 of them for example?

In short: the Snippet is what displays directly on the character sheet. It’s often used for an abbreviated version of the rule.
If you click on that snippet on your character sheet, the Description is what pops up in the sidebar. It’s typically the full, unaltered rules text.
The Description is also what you’ll see if viewing the homebrew directly (outside of the character sheet).

For unofficial equipment, I think the best you can do it to include the quantity in the text description.
So you’d pick “A Custom Value” and write “3 bottle glass” or similar.

This is a question for DnDBeyond: I'm making a homebrew subclass that would allow for the character to take Eldritch Invocations at certain levels. I'm not sure as to how I can go about that though on DnDBeyond. Is there a way to allow a homebrew subclass to select Eldritch Invocations?

I have it figured out! It's a little tedious, but I'm able to put in each invocation as a potential option individually as opposed to there being a "select an Eldritch Invocation" thingy
dull warren
Is there a nice way to make a feat that would effectively give expertise with a specific weapon type in the dndbeyond homebrew system?
uneven lantern
I doubt it, since there’s no official rule that provides expertise with a weapon.
dull warren
Okay! thank you, i wasn't sure if i just couldn't figure it out, or if it wasn't a feature. So the easiest way would likely to make a weapon that scales with proficiency?

red shoal
is there a way to have a portable hole, or other "containers" as just, items in my inventory. I don't want them to be containers on the sheet.
modest pelican
You can make a custom item versions? However the container state isn't toggleable
regal crescent
I want to delete my homebrew from DDB before WotC steals it, any idea how?
modest pelican
Per they homebrew rules and guidelines, published homebrew cannot be deleted/unpublished
This has been the case ever since homebrew was made possible on D&D Beyond
regal crescent
Oh yay.
Well, at least it was just a small homebrew for a rogue subclass based on using scrolls. I think it's got like 7 faves in four years.
modest pelican
You can find the homebrew rules and guidelines here https://www.dndbeyond.com/homebrew-rules-guidelines
They're also linked on the confirmation dialogue that appears every time you publish an item
regal crescent
Makes sense they'd cover their bases. Thanks for the tip. Now i'm gonna go sleep before the snark gets to me.

Currently DnDBeyond only officially supports 5e rules.

night pier
the only Ad Blocker i have doesnt interfere with websites in any way i know of, and all cookies are enabled in the browser, nothing else could possibly interfere, yet it still doesnt work
naive lodge
Then we can only recommend to try in another browser or on another device to see what's going on.
night pier
will do, thanks for the help though.
the only extension i had was duckduckgo, which now that i see the other steps, may have blocked it because of the password and such, but its theorization, since Microsoft Edge had to issue.
final trellis
duckduckgo is a known extension that can cause issues with Google logins
