Haha, probably the main source of my confusion! Either way, I got my pre-order locked in and I'm relieved. Thanks both for the assist!
Generally speaking, the homebrew system is built to facilitate the official rules. Since no official feat ever had a skill prerequisite, they probably never had cause to add it.
Promotions don’t combine unless stated otherwise. Even in your screenshot, the legendary discount is not applied.
I understand the current status quo. I'm trying to understand why that was changed.
Legendary discount used to combine with other promotions in the past.
I guess i'll not get an answer to that.
Legendary discounts have never combined with digital + physical bundle discounts
Be it through dndstore.wizards.com originally with the fixed bundles, or through the new D&D Beyond marketplace with the automatic, in-cart digital discounting
Sad, could we request features somewhere for DDB/homebrew system?
"You will also automatically receive a 15% discount off standard pricing for all future digital Dungeons & Dragons sourcebook and adventure book purchases on D&D Beyond!"
The text doesn't specify any sort of edition restriction, it says all future digital D&D books on D&DB.
If i buy a bundle, that includes a digital and a physical book, to my understanding the Legendary Discount should still apply to the digital part.
Nevertheless, thank your for your time, trying to help me out here.
It is what it is. You just feel a little cheated of the promise.
- I never mentioned "edition restriction"
- The 2024 core rulebooks are not a new edition
- That applies to digital only purchases, digital + physical bundles have never been included. If you go to just the 2024 Player's Handbook, you'll see the legendary discount is applied
I hope that clarifies everything
hey the maps goes down?
Hey I have to pre-order bundle off Dndbeyond (UK based) how do I get my 15% off for legendary?
if you are getting just the digital bundle, it would show at checkout
how it's not a Dndbeyond web page?
which bundle are you ordering?
physical and digital for UK
the legendary discount doesnt apply to physical/digital bundles
anyone know why the Giant foundling background and the feat it gives cant be put on a character? Its not on the drop down menu to be picked and Yes, I own the source book it comes from.
its showing up fine for me, have you checked https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses to see if entitlements are synced?
Yes it is synced also.
and you are 100% sure you own it, that it isnt being shared in a campaign with you? if so, it will be on that page as well
Yeah I can access the book and read everything about it, it states I own it.
then you may need to open a support ticket
ok, thank you.
I checked and it works for me too, so yeah, if you’re sure you personally own it and it’s not shared with you, and your entitlements are in sync, then I agree that support is the right call.
Hello. I have a question. I can't buy the three books this month. Só, I intend to pre-order the Digital Players Handbook this month, the digital DMG next month and the digital Monster Manual one month later. Would I get all the pre-order bonuses as I would get if i had bought the bundle? Or I need to pre-order the three books together to get the bonuses?
Hello, new to the Discord but I've used DnD Beyond for over a year now but I have started running into some issues while using my prefered web browser (Opera GX). I have had to start moving the game log and other windows to the left side of my window for about 2 months now because the page seems to be conflicting with the browser now. Mostly the right end of spell text and actual roll numbers being completely shown off of my screen as if the page has been shifted. There also seems to be some bug with moving things to the left side of the window being it makes certain clickable buttons no longer clickable, I.E. choosing my second level spells or above rather than scrolling down my spell page to get to certain levels. I'm also having issues with being able to expend charges on my Staff of the Woodlands, seems the ability to mark off used charges no longer works at all. Mainly asking if anyone knows any work arounds for this, setting I could change, or if these are known issues that are being worked on?
Based on the wording on the site, you’d get the individual book pre order bonuses, but not the bundle bonuses.
this may seem like a dumb question, but I cannot for the life of me find the death saving throw button. If someone could point it out, that would be great thanks.
There isn't one, you just roll a d20 from the dice menu button
oh ok, cause I see death save throw in the dice log, so I keep thinking theres a button
Since you asked: Partially yes, but not completely.
Thanks anyway for your effort.
I have understood that they have decided against giving a discount on the digital part for combination products that have physical and digital components.
What remains unclear to me is why discounts were cumulative in the past (for digital products) and are no longer cumulative today.
An example of this statement: If I were to buy the digital version of Candlekeep Mysteries today, i see the "Legendary Bundle Disc" is displayed in the shop, but it is not actually credited to the product. I can benefit from the current -40% promotion, but as the owner of the Legendary Bundle Disc I have no advantage over a regular buyer, as the Legendary Bundle Discount is only displayed, but not credited in addition to the current -40% promotion.
And here there is now a difference to how it was handled in the past when purchasing digital books. With my last purchases, the discounts were still combined. The aim of my enquiry was to understand why this has changed and when.
In my opinion, the answer to this question is still pending.
To give an example of what i am talking about (I may have expressed myself misleadingly or not explained clearly enough what I am talking about)
Here is my order from the 08/13/2021:
At that time, there was an ongoing Promotion (20% Off Books and Bundles in the Marketplace for D&D Beyond's Anniversary.
The The Wild Beyond the Witchlight (Pre-order) came at 29.99$. With a -20% discount it comes down to 23.99$, if you then apply the -15% from the legendary boundle, it goes down to 20.39$.
--> Promotions on digital products used to combine with the Legendary Boundle.
@uneven lantern wrote: "Promotions don’t combine unless stated otherwise."
I came to understand that promotions combining with the Legendary Boundle seems to be no longer the case. It used the be different in the past.
I'll try to figure out when and why that changed, and what does that mean for the future.
Thank you for your time and for trying to help me with your answers. At the same time, I get the feeling that this specific question has been successfully avoided so far. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, I can't say for sure
You're asking about a different thing now
Combined discounts should apply and there's a known issue about that not happening
#server-announcements message
To clarify
- Bundle discounts do not stack with digital+physical bundles - this has always been the case
- Bundle discounts should stack with sale discounts but there is a known issue with this not appearing in the store: #server-announcements message
My bad, i guess. Should've phrased it better.
I thought those to to be related and therefor one and the same.
You answer was really helpful! Thank you for that clarification ❤️
I currently am unable to login to the website or android app. I use google services to login but D&DBeyond doesnt recognize my login on the site, while on the app says theres a login issue and i need to login through device settings which doesnt work
That sounds like an issue with your google login rather than D&D Beyond (based on what the app is saying)
how would i look into that? is it a google permissions thing you think? im able to login to that google account everywhere else it seems
I'm not sure I'm afraid
Hello. I have a question with an irl D&D game (the one particular on the picture)
I saw the rule books and my head started hurting only from the thought of the preparation needed
Are there any apps that can tell us what rules there are and what we can do during the progression of the game?
You may have better luck checking the game's page on BoardGameGeek, as this channel is specifically for getting support for D&D Beyond
https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/59946/dungeons-and-dragons-castle-ravenloft-board-game
This channel is for support for D&D Beyond
you could also try asking in #dnd-media
is there any reason i wouldnt be getting my friends shared content while everyone else in my camapign is?
Oh ok, thanks
How can I change my primary email address for Beyond? Just realized that all the site's newsletters and such have been going to my old highschool email address, which I no longer use.
You could try checking here to see whether your account entitlements are in sync:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses
If that doesn’t do it, could you give a specific example of something that should be shared but you’re unable to see?
I can't seem to leave one of the campaigns I've joined on DnD Beyond.
What happens when you try?
The campaign simply keeps showing in the list of campaigns I'm in. I was content sharing and whenever I turned off some sort of error occurred. But I managed to take care of that by joining the campaign with one of my characters and turning it off before leaving again. Mind you, the campaign was still there after I left for the second time.
Oh, nevermind. The issue has been resolved.
Hey, so I pre-ordered the 2024 PHB, and I just wanted to know if it will only appear in my "owned" section once the september 17 release date happens?
in the confirmation email it just shows
the link goes just to the dndb homepage
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses should list the Player’s Handbook (2024)
oh, yep
no, it will specifically say 2024
if its on that list, you own it. it likely won't show up under sources until release
thanks 👍
That's not a bug, that's just how that modifier works
There is a way to use content my DM is Sharing with me in creating homebrew?
Nope, shared content cannot be used to copy from in the homebrew tools
Does that item specifically cause this issue?
Can you send me a link to the affected character?
Also you don't need to ping me
I'll pass it along to double check, but I'm pretty sure that's a limitation of the modifier
I can't say
Excuse me if this is the wrong channel, but I’m trying to understand what seems like a contradiction in the preorder bonuses for the 2024 books.
The digital only bundle states that it includes all of the preorder bonuses, but the latest article that covers the bonuses seems to state that only the digital & physical bundle includes the gold dragon mini, gold dice, and art book. Which is correct?
Screen shots for reference.
The article doesn't state that "only the digital & physical bundle includes the gold dragon mini, gold dice, and art book", it states that's what you get if you pre-order the bundle, which is correct
It's just saying what you get if you pre-order, which is the same exclusive bonuses as if you pre-order the digital bundle or the physical bundle
The “Orc Conduit” from “Flee Mortals!” and the attack “Elemental Discharge” has it’s damage roll added like a normal Check roll, not like a damage roll. Results in a right click giving you the option to roll advantage and not crit damage. Is this the right place to report this?
Thanks, I'll pass that along
Has anyone received the preorder dice for infinite staircase yet? It's just 14 days till it comes out and we've heard nothing about them?
They've not yet been released
How can i recieve all the preorder bonuses when i live in eu
The 2024 Digital Core Rulebook Bundle is available everywhere and includes all preorder bonuses:
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/category/core-rulebook-digital-bundle
Alternatively, you can get the Physical + Digital bundles for all three books at https://dndstore.wizards.com/, which provides the same bonuses and savings.
You get half of the Bonuses if you solely order the Players Handbook on its own, so the Digital Preorder Bonuses ‘in addition”, such as the Gold Dragon Mini, etc… are exactly that - additional bonuses. Preorder additional books = get additional Preorder Bonuses 😊
Yeah, each book has its own bonuses, and then there's exclusive bonuses if you get all three.
Already fixed. I am impressed.
Is anyone aware of DDB working on issues with Opera GX compatibility? Running into a slew of issues as of late that are not present on other browsers.
Not sure Opera GX is a supported browser. See https://dndbeyond-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/articles/7747209347348-Supported-Browser-and-Mobile-OS-Versions
Opera GX is not on the list.
That’s a bit odd being I’ve had zero issue with it for over a year of use. I’d imagine they have grouped Opera and Opera GX but at face value it doesn’t seem as such.
hello. question about the dndb marketplace. I want to preorder the digital bundle of the 2024 core rulebook set, will the piece meals I bought in the older version of phb give me a discount on the current one or no?
No - they are new products and any a la carte purchase discounts only apply to the product they were purchased from (and you'd also need to contact customer service to get it applied as the new marketplace does not currently automatically apply them)
got it.
i have the physical copy of the older version of the core rulebooks. is it worth it to buy the 2024 rulebooks in dndb? im planning to get the master tier subscription eventually to share content with my campaign. i just dont know if everything in the older core rulebooks are available in the new ones.
They are new with revised rules but are supposed to work (within reason) with the 2014 books rules/options. You can check what folks are saying about the playtests and what's been recently revealed in #1026901431132885064 and decide if that's worth it for you
thanks! i'll check it out
I don't know why, but searching for the Butcher's Bib (Or even Butcher) in the DDB Search Bar or Magic Item search is just not pulling it up at all.
It's a magic item from Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, a book I own. And I can pull up the actual item page (https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/1434261-butchers-bib), but I had to dig through the actual book to get to that link.
For the second image, at least, you’ll need to click “Show Advanced Filters”, then set “Partnered Content” to “Yes”.
Not sure if the first is related to that Partnered Content designation or not, though. 🤔
Thatnks! I wouldn't have expected that one, since Wildemount was a Wizards-published book
My question is I can’t find D&D stuff in my area in Brackettville Texas are in del Rio Texas can you send stuff here to so I can buy it
This channel is for getting support using D&D Beyond
I'm making a race, how I nake it that the PB add to a roll? i marked the box "is proficient"
What is spell scale/spell scaling ? How it works?
That should allow your Proficiency Bonus to apply. Do note that any updates to homebrew can take 10-15 minutes for the server cache to clear and apply to a character sheet.
Spell scale would tell the system how to scale a spell if upcast. For example the spell fire bolt scales up it's damage based on being a cantrip which scales up in power at certain levels. Or the spell could target more creatures.
You can hover over the question mark near the field to see a tooltip that explains it.
i get it(i think), so that the 1st, and 3rd options, but what is the 2nd?
If you hover over the question mark button and check the tooltip it tells you but it indicates at what level the damage/effects would increase above the spell's normal casting level. So for example if you added a 1 there it would tell DnDBeyond that for each spell slot above the normal casting one, the damage would increase by the amount indicated.
I used to get a discount on sourcebooks because I bought the sourcebook bundle, is that no longer the case? Why not?
edit: no nvm it just glitched
Has anyone preordered the new players hand book and redeemed the digital version on d&d beyond.
Is your copy showing up in your owned books?
They don't come out until September
I just wasn't sure if it would show that it's owned it. I was assuming it won't show up till the release but it was first time redeeming on beyond very new to D&D lol
If you successfully redeemed the code, the book should be visible here under Current Product Licenses:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses
Perfect it was showing there 😁
Thank you
that not the 3rd option?
Again, if you hover over that ? shown in the screenshot, it will explain all three options.
Spell Scale is for spells like Fireball:
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.
Spell Level is for spells like Hunter's Mark:
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd or 4th level, you can maintain your concentration on the spell for up to 8 hours. When you use a spell slot of 5th level or higher, you can maintain your concentration on the spell for up to 24 hours.
ho ,ok TNX SO MUCH, soory if i was to digging
All good! Happy to answer the question.
Just wanted to make sure you knew what those ? icons do, because there's a lot of them. 
(Though admittedly, sometimes I read them and still have questions. 🤣)
i know ,but on phone and tablets it dont work + my english not perfect
Hey I physically can't click the acknowledgement box to continue my purchase tried it on another browser same issue.
have you tried disabling any extensions you have running? sometimes ad blockers can interfere like that
yeah adblocker disabled still no joy
Have you tried using a different browser?
yes
You're not using a VPN are you? Try disabling that if you are.
If it's not that - then you may need to reach out to Customer Service and see if they can identify whats happening.
Customer support for that site can be found here:
https://dnd-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/requests/new/
Ah thanks for fixing that!
2 Q for free ddb:
- there a way to add someone to be also dm of campaign? there any way to share CHARACTER SHEET compliantly? including DESCRIPTION NOTES EXTRAS
- there a way to use public homebrew in CHARACTER SHEET/builder?
- No
- only with subscription
for 1, the dm of campaign also dont see those parts?
the dm can see them, but they are hidden for anyone else
but there is no way to have more than one dm
tnx
I finally got it working, however, now I've got the keys I get an internal sever error, and then they have already been used.... Assuming it's gone through however some confirmation would be good 🙂
Also there is not a redeem drop down as suggested in the instructions on the marketplace tab, I had to google the url 🙂
Ignore verified in the market place as owned, would still take a look at the drop down option though 🙂
That's happened to a few other people, too. Assuming the key was successfully redeemed, you should see it here under Current Product Licenses.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses
Which instructions are you referring to specifically?
If i preorder the Physical and Digital copies of the 2024 handbooks, but I live in Canada, what happens?
Need to evaluate which pack i preorder
Check the disucssion that starts here: #ddb-support message
Im so sorry, but im not sure if its me approaching work hours or just me being an idiot, but i cant quite wrap my head around it
Nah you're fine - the tl;dr; is this:
Digital core book bundle: You can use D&D Beyond marketplace regardless of region *
Physical core book bundle: dndstore.wizards.com doesn't offer physical only purchases so you'll need to try your local gaming store/bookstore/etc
Digital + Physical core book bundle: dndstore.wizards.com doesn't offer this but you don't miss out on anything because this bundle (on the DDB store) doesn't grant you any extra savings, it's just a convenience factor. You can just add the three individual book bundles to your cart*
*These options will grant the exclusive pre-order bonuses; the digital art book, the gold dragon digital mini, and the gold dice
tl;dr - no you can't get the all in bundle but this won't result in you missing out on anything, it just means five extra clicks
So the dndbeyond "all three books bundles" is just a bundle of convenience and you ordering the physical + digital bundle for each book individually on the dndstore.wizards.com store does not exclude you from any of the preorder perks. The savings are exactly the same as well.
Ok, i think i am succeeding on the insight check; i understand now. Thanks for being so patient!
No thank you for being so patient! When the preorder ordering options were announced it was fairly confusing even for us!
I also had the unfortunate factor of not being in the US, so theres taht as well 😅
the instructions you get on how to redeem your codes. Specifically the instructions you get via email.
For purchases from dndstore.wizards.com?
yep. They show a drop down option for redeeming codes from the main navigation bar, however one doesn't appear at present, so you have to Google the URL
Thanks! I’ll pass that along for review.
Hello!
I'm trying to create a homebrew subclass but I don't understand things when I go to create....
Can someone help me sort it out or send me to something that walks me through it please?
I recommend this post on it: https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/131411-a-homebrewers-how-to-faq
There are other threads and guides out there, but this is a good starting place when the very basics don't immediately make sense.
👍🏼 Appreciate ya
Another handy tip is to find official content that works similarly to yours. Then you can make a homebrew copy of it to peek inside and see how it was set up.
I doubt that would be possible! 😂
I'm trying to create a solo campaign that has to be.. adjusted pretty majorly. It's for fun and extremely over powered. Based on Eragon and Fourth Wing. I'm trying to accomplish through D&D what video games have failed to deliver.
When the new PHB drops how will that affect my characters created in the current 5E or creating characters for continuing 5E campaigns?
There has been no info given on how it will work
All we roughly know is that both 2014 and 2024 books will be supported - how that will work, nothing has been announced yet.
Okay so as far as we know it shouldn't affect my current campaign. Likely something like the option to use legacy content or Critical role content etc.
Correct - nothing should be removed/changed from the existing books, just new books are being added and supported. But nothing announced for how that will look or work exactly.
How do i buy the thingy that allowed me to use all subclasses
You would have to buy each and every book on DnDBeyond that has a subclass.
is there a hyperlink to the QftIS book? I thought pre order would be availble today?
do you need a subscription to use someone elses homebrew?
yes
To add it to your own homebrew collection, yes you’d need a subscription
unless you are in a campaign with them
How do I make a health potion
Hi all, I'm about to pre-order the three serparate corebooks.
As I'm living in Europe, outside of the US, and with the help of some earlier remarks.
I just wanted to be sure
-Will I have all extra D&d Beyond benefits?
12 Digital Dice sets
10 Frames
5 Backdrops
Dragons of D&D digital art book
D&D Beyond Gold digital dice set
50th anniversary Gold Dragon mini releasing with the closed beta of the upcoming 3D VTT
-Do all the books will be deliverend on 13th February 2025? Or will these be sent to me separately when released?
If someone would love to help me please 😊 than I can order these
there a way to make magic item with separated chargers for different abilities/spells?
there a way in magic item or feat to make number of use depend on PB?
No to both questions
TNX
You want #third-party, this channel is for getting help with D&D Beyond specifically
It's not made by Wizards of the Coast
Published by Wizards of the Coast = First party, discuss in any channel
Not published by Wizards of the Coast = #third-party
DDB app on iPhone the subclasses of Sword Coast Adventurers Guide are visible, but the contents aren’t fully shown.
For instance Arcana Domain cleric’s Channel Divinity and everything else after the Arcana Domain Spells isn’t showing.
This regards every SCAG subclass.
Via Listings —> Classes
I pulled it up on my iPhone and it loads the full Arcana Domain subclass via listings.
It ends there on mine. Even reinstalled the app
I will ask the team if they can replicate the issue. Though there is a holiday in the US this week.
Okay, I will try and re-download all the books and updates. Deleted them
Still thesame issue, to bad
Sent a message to the support team
To be clear, it’s with every SCAG subclass, like the Path of the Battlerager Barbarian
@upper meteor What version of the app are you on?
I'm seeing this issue on my android app, version 2.56
2.56 indeed
Yeah, that seems to be the root cause, something between 2.55 and 2.56
@gaunt bloom what is your version?
I updated to 2.56 and could still see it, but updating SCAG source itself caused the issue for me
Ah, then we are a step closer for support to recreate the issue 🙂
Intimated that to the team as well. 🙂
Can you go to your DnDBeyond profile (https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses) and check to see if your entitlements are in sync?
If they aren't, there should be a button to sync them
When creating this character, did you toggle the Grim Hollow content on?
There's a set of content toggles you can set to determine which content sources your character can pull from
Anybody who can help me with my question please?
If you’re ordering all three from https://dndstore.wizards.com/, you will indeed get all the available preorder bonuses. Each books will ship when it’s released.
hi not sure if this is the right place but I can't sign into my DDB account via the app. Every time I try to log in via my Google account it says to log in to my Google account on my device (I already am)
That sounds like a google issue (possibly a device issue) rather than DDB
I have the physical copies of D&D books so I was going into D&D and beyond and adding stuff via homebrew for my party however for my paladin I was wanting to select blessed warrior but I can't seem to find a way to Homebrew fighting styles any advice?
i dont believe you can homebrew fighting styles. however you could make it as a feat and add it that way
I couldn't find this through search:
What date will the alt cover physical books be available to buy from physical stores?
And, when I buy a physical book, will it come with a digital key?
Thanks!
We have no idea about when local stores will receive alt covers - it likely depends on when your store ordered them.
Buying a physical book does not give you DnDBeyond access unless you buy one of the digital + physical bundles through DnDBeyond (if in US) or through https://dndstore.wizards.com/ if outside of the US.
Thank you!
Local game stores in the US and Canada can begin selling it up to two weeks early: Sept. 3.
But I’d recommend contacting the stores in your area for availability.
Anyone knows if the special bundle will be available internationally or just in US ?!
If you’re referring to the 2024 Digital & Physical Core Rulebook Bundle, international customers can get the same deal from https://dndstore.wizards.com/ by preordering all three books together.
You’ll have to add them to your cart separately, but it provides the same savings and preorder bonuses.
Alternatively, the 2024 Digital Core Rulebook Bundle can be purchased on D&D Beyond regardless of location, and includes all preorder bonuses.
Thank you very much
im using the alpha maps feature and for some reason the mpas will no longer show and all it says are no maps selected, i cant choose any maps i wont let me
Try reloading your web page. And if you aren't the dm ask them to reloading their webpage as well
i tried that and nothing still no map or anything
i also tried asking everyone to close the map so i could reopen it but it would not let me
Do you have any web extensions or vpns active that may be messing with it?
i disabled them and still nothing i open a map for a different campaign and it works so i think mine is just forever bugged
Sorry about the late reply had a busy day can you add a feat at any point or only certain levels?
Have you tried clearing your cache?
just now tried that same issue
I'm not really sure what else to suggest besides opening your map window in a incognito window. But I don't think that suggestion would help any.
Maybe someone else has some other suggestions.
the sheet allows you to add any feat anytime
what are you trying to do exactly? are you trying to make a magic item? are you trying to add a standard potion to your sheet?
So when I play a game I can pass them to my allies
And save a slot
And use them on my self
If I am damaged
you can just add a potion to your sheet throught the inventory
The dm that what to play with me limits to one health potion
Now that I can make them it be easier to keep a few handy
Thx
Hey is there a DDB technical support question here?
Ah okay - looks like you got it sorted out
i still need help
Did you try the standard "clear browser cache and restart browser" troubleshooting step?
yes it didnt work
Hmmm. It's working for me so that rules out any global issues.
i have high reason to believe the its the websites fault cause when i just start a nn campaign it works fine
its just a mini bug is what it seems
Can you pop open your web browser's developer tools and check the console there, refresh the page, and see if there's any red error messages?
Blocked by client - that means your browser or something on your end is blocking something
Are you using any third-party antivirus tool?
no just normal windows defender
After disabling the ad blockers, try clearing your browser cache and see where we get.
still the same things
in race making, how can i do the thing that have i the newer races abut language and ASI?
also how do i make the the choice between small and medium, i now that at the star there option called "small or medium" ,but it sosnt realy let chose
Is there an easy way of filtering away books you don't own when using dndbeyond?
only in the sources menu
Thanks - this has been noted by others and we've passed it on back.
👍 Cool.
Is this the right channel to post these issues? I wasn't sure if here or feedback would be more appropriate.
Uh... hmmm.... It would technically fall under feedback since you're not specifically asking for technical support
Whenever I open a book in the app, it comes in this weird font and the normal background isn’t there anymore. All the text is black and I can barely read anything unless I change the display style to “book.”
Any way to fix this?
Try the following (in this order going to the next step if the previous doesn't work)
- Fully close and relaunch the app
- Close the app, clear cache, relaunch
- Close the app, clear all app data (this deletes your books), relaunch
- Uninstall and reinstall the app
Hello, how are you? I'm trying to use the dndbeyond maps but it sayd an error message regaring some steps getting out of sync, tried clicking on rety but didn't work. Someone know how to make it work?
Hi! My custom background selections aren't showing up on my sheet
Did I forget to confirm anything?
Oh. Reloading the page worked. Nevermind!
Those are cached and sometimes take up to 15m to switch over. A neat trick I’ve found is that loading the character on mobile seems to jump-start it to re-cache faster.
Hey! Is it possible to purchase certain backgrounds individually on Dnd Beyond?
Currently the only way to get new backgrounds is to buy the books they come in or make homebrew. They removed the ability to buy just backgrounds
Ooh welp, thanks alot!
Can someone who doesn't have a subscription be able to read sourcebooks if it's shared by someone in a campaign?
If someone in the campaign has a master subscription and has enable content sharing in that campaign. Then everyone in that campaign would be able to read everything everyone has.
Can't complete a purchase on DDB with PayPal because the State/Province select doesn't render when Canada is selected as the country.
hey, hwo do i buy optional class features in the marketplace
also spels, i know we wehre able to buy them indidviually a fw years ago but i cant find the optiosn to anymroe
they have removed that functionality
If you pre-order the physical/digital bundle of the core books, do they ship as they are released, or do they ship them all in February?
As they’re released.
Sweet. Thank you!
Is there any way to purchase the old preorder dice ? Would really like the strixhaven ones I have the book but sadly didn’t preorder
No, there isn't. But Strixhaven: Curriculum of Chaos didn't have a pre-order dice set
Ah yeah, my bad (I went into my dice collection and searched for Strixhaven and got no results)
Ah well big sad, guess I will have to make due 😂, the blue glowing math rocks just looks cool
Hello, I am creating a homebrew item and using the [spell] [/spell] syntax, I get the tooltip for cannon spells. Is there a syntax to use for homebrew spells? or does it need to be published?
That’s not possible for homebrew spells, I’m afraid.
If the homebrew is for private use, you can simply insert a link instead.
(But doing so won’t let you publish the item for the global community.)
You can use HTML encoding to simulate the [spell] code, but yeah, you still can’t publish it when doing that. It’s how I do it for my personal homebrew, though.
You can even trick DNDB into showing the cool preview hover-over in private homebrew!
I purchased a subscription on the phone app and my card was charged for it. When I log in to the D&D Beyond website it shows my user name and all my characters and campaigns but has no subscription.
If I purchase a master or hero subsricption for dnd beyond, would I be able to access any aditional books or options ie Players Handbook or DM's Guide, or would I have to buy each book individually/bundle?
Subscriptions do not grant direct access to any books
They only affect book access indirectly:
- early access to books you've pre-ordered
- ability to share books in campaigns with others
oh okay thank you very much
On dnd beyond i cant make a wooden axe as an item because its ‘not an english word’
You’re probably missing a description or something else.
Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to target things you are not proficient in with homebrew on dnd beyond
Like giving a -1 to each skill that you don't have proficiency in
Like, a overwrite of -1, or just apply -1 to all the skills?
Just applying a -1 to non proficient skill checks
In this case in the form of a feat
Oh I have had an idea, I could add 1 proficiency bonus and then -1 every skill check right?
Is there a way to add monster tokens to dndbeyond maps without the players seeing them immediately? Like to have them be "hidden" (shift-h) when they are placed?
It seems like when I add a point to the proficiency bonus it ends up adding 2 and then every skill check increases by like 3, am I missing something
Is this not right somehow?
If you have a subscription when you go online and you click on My Subscription, shouldn't it show your tier level? Mine just shows screen to add a subscription.
Hello. I just signed up to DND Beyond. Creating a test character to see how it fares and... I can't select an Archfey patron for a Warlock. How would I go about adding it?
Purchase it, I think
You would need to purchase the players handbook.
I believe fiend is the free option
But in the marketplace I only see the option to preorder the 2024 set. Nothing about the old content...
No Xanathar's Guide either
The current version of Archfey is in the 2014 Player’s Handbook.
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/category/players-handbook?pid=SRC-00002
If you search it will show up. You can also go to core rulebooks and scroll down.
Xanathars is listed under rules expanded
This is great. How would I have found this on my own? Let's say I didn't know it was in this Player's Handbook? Where can I type "Archfey Patron" to indicate that this is what I need to purchase?
I'm asking because my party has all sorts of characters made with classes from Critical Role, Acq. Inc. etc.
When I want to know what book something is from, I usually check the app.
Right. No such option on the website, I take it?
You can also just search for it in the search bar on the regular site.
Yeah, then if you try to open it but don’t have access, it’ll take you to that book in the marketplace.
Alright. Thanks! 🙂
And with a subscription, only I have to buy the books and my friends can just create characters using those books? Is that only if I'm the DM? Or as long as I'm a part of the campaign?
If you have a Master Tier subscription, you can enable Content Sharing in up to five campaigns.
Once that’s enabled, everyone’s books get shared with everyone else.
And they’ll be able to use any shared character options for characters in that campaign.
Oh! That's awesome. So if one of my players that doesn't have a subscription joins the campaign, their book gets shared with everyone else as well?
That's neat!
Yep!
That's very very good news. Thanks!
I should've listened to Sam Riegel about D&D Beyond years ago 😐
Is creating a custom monster easy?
With DnDBeyond tools? Maybe not as easy as using a text document/pen and paper.
But you can also take an existing monster and tweak it up to make your own homebrewed creation (easy-ish way to get a homebrew monster created).
Creating one from scratch can be a little more challenging - and remember that DnDBeyond only supports what's possible in the official rules so if you go too far off the expected norms and rules of official D&D, it may not be possible in DnDBeyond.
You can always bounce your homebrew ideas off the creative bunch in #homebrew as well.
Thank you for that answer
I have money to buy the book but it in cash I need to see in it person so I can buy it can you send 2024 player hand book to del Rio Texas stores so I can find it and finaly buy it
It's not out yet
It’ll be released on Sept. 17.
If you’ve got a local game store near you, they can begin selling it two weeks early (on Sept. 3). Feel free to contact them for availability.
just something i notices on the wizard class details, chrono isnt on the list of subclasses for wizard. idk if this a bug or not but just to bring to the light. hope this the right channel for it.
I found it just below Blood Magic - does it not show up for you there?
If you're not seeing it there, then you may not have access to that subclass.
its not there, goes to comments after blood
Weird. It's showing up for me
i dont own any books but i can see all the subclass for wizard anyway as well
Try this - go to https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses and check to see if your entitlements are in sync.
And clear your browser cache
not working, well idk why thats happening
idc really it was more to look at the subclasses anyway
Very weird. I'd suggest creating a Customer Service ticket so folks in the back can investigate it.
If you have an issue with D&D Beyond purchases or subscriptions, you may need to contact customer support. To do so, please go to http://dndbeyond.link/SubmitTicket and submit a ticket.
Important
- You will need to make an account for the support ticket system. This is not your D&D Beyond account.
- Tickets are responded to in the order they are received and response times depend on how busy the support team is.
- Tickets are grouped by user based on the most recent ticket. Do not submit multiple tickets for the same issue. This will push you down the queue
- The customer support team is active Monday-Friday and work US hours. This means you may not get a response based on your local timezone or weekends.
Presumably the ones you do see are from books that are shared with you through one of your campaigns.
So if you don’t see a specific option, it’s safe to assume that book has not been shared with you.
like i said before i dont own any books and im not in a content sharing campaign (well that has content like subclasses and stuff like that).
Are you in a campaign where Content Sharing is enabled?
If you don’t own those books (for the subclasses you do see there), then someone in that campaign does.
i think so but even if i leave i still would be able to see all the subclasses and what not, just not be able to use them if that makes sense
That page only shows the subclasses you own or have shared with you.
well i left both campaign i was in and nothing has changed, i can see every subclass besides chrono and grav
Your entitlements likely haven’t updated yet.
i updated them when noob was helping me
Unless you can see Chronurgist here in the book, you won’t see it there.
i guess i cant see the wildmount subclasses but i can every other books subclasses weird, anyway thanks for helping
How can I get the Custom Lineage from Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything?
Buying Tashas
To be clear, the whole thing?
DnDBeyond no longer offers a la carte purchasing so yes, you would need the whole book (or be in a DnDBeyond campaign with content sharing and that particular book amongst the folks in that campaign)
It sucks they no longer do that but they think that make more money making people buy the whole books not parts.
When I'm updating a races with multiple subraces
I click "create a new version", but all the previous subraces don't carry over
Do I have to remake them all by hand?
Pretty much. You could on your main race have a feature with options at level one and do the subraces that way. That's how I do it and it not only makes things look neater in the character builder. It also makes it to where I don't have to remake everything for each subrace.
I'll post my question here because I don't really know if this has been addressed "somewhere" already (if so I'd be grateful for a link) 🧐 . I've been using DnD Beyond mobile on IOS for awhile now. Today on my PC I logged into dndbeyond.com and had an EPIC FAIL at trying to find a way to log into my existing mobile content (characters, library, campaigns, etc.). Is this even possible, or am I attempting the impossible?
DnDBeyond only has 3 ways to login: Google Account, Apple Account, or Wizards of the Coast Account. Most likely you set up your account with Apple since you mentioned iOS.
To login on the website you'll need to enable 3rd party cookies and allow popups for the DnDBeyond domain in your web browser. Then use your Apple ID to login.
Hello. Question, I have 2 DnD beyond accounts (by accident, signed up with two methods). My main account that has all my characters is logged in through Twitch.
I haven't used it for a many months, but I'm starting a new campaign. I went to log in today and after I put all my stuff it, it briefly flashes a message 'this user has been banned from the site.' Then it takes me back to the D&D beyond home page.
I haven't even logged in to my D&D Beyond or Twitch account for probably 6 months. Certainly didn't do anything ban worthy. Is this a mistake, if so, how can I fix this?
You'll need to reach out to customer service to get your accounts straightened out: http://dndbeyond.link/SubmitTicket
Thanks. The cookies might have been my downfall, since I always just automatically deny non-essential cookies. I may have to tinker with my popup blocker settings as well.
Thanks, I did that. I was wondering if anyone else has encountered the issue. It let my wife log in just fine, so I don't think it is the browser. And I'd just make a new account but I had a lot of books and digital dice bought on my old account. :/
Customer support will need to merge the accounts. Normally a user should only have one account. The problem is you now have two.
Oh, it would have no way of knowing that I have two. Totally seperate emails/logins etc. And I used D&D beyond for several years without issue. My Twitch login account is 'my account'. I just one day accidently clicked log in via google and made an account before I realized it wasn't logging me in but making a new one. Never touched it again after that. :/
What does this mean?
I'm almost entirely sure my information is correct
Also just shows this when trying to add my card as a payment option
It could be your bank doesn't want to pay DnDBeyond because the address you put in doesn't match what the bank has on file...
You may need to reach out to customer service for further support
Ah my bad, my bank is so slow with notifications, I just got the notification telling me they stopped it lol
Now I need to wait and see if all four of these "You've spent money" messages go away without me being charged lol
Looking through DND beyond and on random online forums, but I cant seem to find where to get subclasses. A friend of mine is running a campaign and I got arcane trickster as a level 3 rogue but when I go to make a seperate character I don't see it. I even subscribed to get the extra character slots but whenever I hit the little marketplace link it seems to show me everything but what I was actually looking for. Is there a tab or a specific deck that has all or atleast a decent chunk of subclasses
you have to buy an entire book to get the subclasses in it
if you want to use a subclass thats shared with you, you have to make the character in that campaign
Hey so im trying to publish a homebrew race with subraces in DDB, but It wont let me saying that the race is set to have Subraces and there are none made for it, but I have made subraces for it.
Is there something wrong? A setting that im missing or something?

How do I make non magic homebrew items
There isn't one using the homebrew tools, but you can add custom items directly to your character sheet (Equipment > Manage Inventory > Add Custom Item).
so i just picked up the starter kit last night because the wife and i are wanting to get a group of friends together to start a game. is there anything essential i should buy that wasnt included in the starter kit? and any tips for a first time DM?

Is there a way to tell what books have what subclasses
google is probably your best bet there. product pages no longer show that info
Thats... interesting.
I subscribed bexause it said unlimited characters and yet my fighter is limited to champion martial style x.x o.o
Yes, you can make unlimited characters as it says, but you still have to either be in a campaign sharing the books with you to use the material in the books or buy them yourself.
Except for champion
Champion is a part of the free basic rules from the SRD, so yes. You would need some basic subclass options in order to do anything with the basic rules.
Just seemed arbitrary to me. Im stuck with oodlea of books and no games i can play
Oodles*
Using ddb i mean
If you have the physical books, you can use the homebrew functionality to create private versions of the subclasses for personal use.
Like... cuatom martial style Battle Master? Then add associated traits and abilities?
Custom*
Sure. You could do that with the homebrew functionality on the site. You would not be able to publish it, but that's OK since you could use it for yourself.
But in a game using Above VTT the dice functions would work?
Dice and modifier functioms*
I don't know anything about Above VTT, but if it has an integration that scrapes from DNDB then it should work. I know similar importing tools work for Forge VTT and Roll20.
Because I have the 2014 edition players handbook and some campaign books ive never found a game for IRL which ia why im hoping to play onlime but I didnt want to wait a month to play in the game I found. They may have open campaigns with the digital sourcebooks but I dont want to ask x.x
Wait a month until I can afford the dogital copies* to be more clear
Sure, that all seems fine. The homebrew functionality will work for your case. Here is a guide I like to link to folks looking to learn how to use it: https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/131411-a-homebrewers-how-to-faq
That's on the DNDBeyond forums? Works fine for me.
You might be blocking it somehow on your end.
Ot workwd whem I tries again so thanks again!
Typos.. meh
Do NOT submit official fifth edition D&D material to public homebrew.
Right, you just don't publish it. You make it for yourself.
Im confused because if I use it in a game with other players and they see my char sheet its then considered public when the DM inevitably sees it... right? Or maybe im confused by the word publish... does that mean creating, for instance, a dnd community and posting it for others to create chars from?! If so I CAN do it! Yay!
I can make my char sheet* not make a community page
No, public in this context means "Published" to the shared Homebrew Collections feature of DNDB.
Using in your personal games is private use even if other players can see it on your character sheet.
Oh okay thats awesome.
Unlock the full power of this book by subscribing to D&D BEYOND. With a subscription, you can access all the features of this book in our digital toolset!
I subscribed... still cant use the content from that book
I redeemed my digital copy of 2024 PHB on DNDBeyond, got an Internal Error page, tried again, said code was already redeemed, but I have no indication whether or not the digital book is in my library or not to confirm.
How do I add a pre-existing character to a pre-existing campaign?
Are you the DM?
yes
- Go to your campaign
- Copy the invite link
- Navigate to the invite link
- Select your pre-made character
A susbscription does not give you access to the books or their materials. A subscription gives you unlimited character slots, the ability to add other's community members published homebrew to your homebrew collection to use, it gives you monthly subscriber perks, and access to new tools and services depending on level of subscription.
If it was successful, you should see the book listed here under Current Product Licenses:

WHy is my tortle not gaining 19 ac with half plate +2 ? I have 16 dex
This channel isn't for rules discussion, please use #dnd-rules
I seem to have gotten myself into a pickle.
Im having trouble logging back into a user i created(i assume it was created a a guest since logging back in with google shows me that ive started a new account)
I can log back in with this new user no prob. But i need the character and the info i created in said old user.
I have the username of said old user if this helps. Aswell as the party said user/character i need is in
If you want to access your old account, you will need to use the google/wizards/apple/twitch account you used to create that account
I can't seem to recall weather i used Google or wizards. But eitherways using google now has me log into a new account. And trying to log back in with Wizard says that the password or account I'm using is wrong.
Proceeding with an account password change tells me to check my e-maile for a link for confirmation, and then
Only to loop me back to the new google account.
We can't help with you getting access to your account, be it google, wizards, apple, or twitch
Hey folks! anyone know how long it usually takes for the monthly sub perks to come out?
When they're ready, usually some time around the start of the month
Do note that this month, WotC was on vacation all of last week.
So it may be later than normal this time.
Is there atleast a way to retrieve said character if i were to provide the party they are in or the old username for the old account?
Characters cannot be forcibly moved from one account to another
I'm trying to download QFtIS on the app and it immediately says "download failed". I have more than enough storage and my signal is decent, is this an issue anyone else is having
Is it because it just came out?
I don't believe there's been any official announcement that release has completed
Usually there will be an announcement once the release process is complete.
Until that announcement comes, it's likely they're still working on it.
Got it, thank you
Hi there! if i need support on a book not showing up in the maps do i ask here or elsewhere?
Hi Ashli do you mean the maps in a book are not showing up in the campaign maps when you launch it?
@dusty steeple
hi there!! So I bought tales from the yawning portal a couple of weeks ago and the maps are not populating in the D&D beyond maps when i try to launch / look for them. see here:
oh sorry!!
There are only a few "pre-loaded" maps in the campaign maps. I load them manually..lol It's ok
AH okay so what i would have to do is upload the yawning portal maps up into the map builder then?
I opened the adventure...and just downloaded the maps..then uploaded them into maps in the campaign maps
Ah! Okay thank you! My apologies!
oh how do i do that??
I know i can upload the maps but i didn't know i can make sections within the maps thiing!!
When you upload the maps inthe "MY UPLAODED MAPS" Start the map name with a nomenclature denominator like "YP" for yawning portal..then they will be organized by that order. So for instance: "YP- The Forest" for a map name
That being said....shouldn't the yawning portal maps be uploaded by now...as far as when it just recently came out?
Maps for books released before Maps launched are being backfilled
Ah okay, i thought there was like a filing system! (I do that for the candlekeep mysteriies ones and etc.)
Books released after Maps launched will be added on release
Back filling is not determined by book release order
Thank you Davyd
What Davyd said...Yawning might not be in the officail maps section...but it DOES mention it in the product details...
What product details?
Not what product, what product details? Where are these details?
The marketplace does not flag Tales from the Yawning Portal as having maps support yet
Farther down the page, there's a section labelled "Product Details".
That section says this, with no mention of Maps:
This purchase unlocks the contents of this adventure for use with D&D Beyond, including the book in digital format in the game compendium and access options from the book in the searchable listings, character builder, and digital sheet.
Does not say that it has Maps support
Thank you!
The key text from that section is the third bullet on the right.
Though I can see how the bottom paragraph on the left could be misconstrued.
Here is the copy from Dragonlance: Shadow of the Queen:
Unlock Maps, D&D BEYOND's virtual tabletop, with a Master Tier subscription and get 25 playable maps with this book.
That copy is also listed in Candlekeep Mysteries and all other Maps supported books
Maps support will come eventually as more and more adventures are backfilled
yeah I did!!! Thank you!! I imagine there is no update on when they will be back uploaded right?
Once they are, there'll be a popup within maps
Seems like they've been adding about two backfill books per month, on average.
Each time you launch maps, if there's an update (including newly added maps) you'll see a popup
Though when the next books will be added and what books those might be is anyone's guess.
There's also the changelog where you can see updates to D&D Beyond, including new maps added
Here's the Maps update for April - May: https://www.dndbeyond.com/changelog#AprilMayMapsUpdates
Finally, a total of eight books were added to Maps: four backfilled adventures and four brand-new releases:
Storm King’s Thunder
Out of the Abyss
Tyranny of Dragons
Princes of the Apocalypse
Vecna: Eve of Ruin
Vecna: Nest of the Eldritch Eye
Flee, Mortals!
Where Evil Lives
Man this is exciting stuff...I love the new maps feature with the pre-loaded maps...Tyranny of Dragons has been great
Hi, im using D&D Beyond for the reference to play. I already created my characters and currently reading the player's handbook. (Let me know what are the other guides i should read to get to know more about D&D). I wanna join a campaign, but idk where to find the link to paste it and join it. So where to find all the variety campaign links?
#dnd-newcomers might be your best bet
A DM will send you a link to their campaign
as well as #find-a-game
What do i do again if i want to get the discount from buying something fom when a la carte was around?
contact customer support and they will give you a code to use
Gotcha
@lapis geyser Thanks
The changelog is a bit out of date. In June the following Essentials Kit and extended adventures were added to Maps.
- Dragon of Icespire Peak
- Storm Lord's Wrath
- Sleeping Dragon's Wake
- Divine Contention
Yes, the changelog only goes up to May
Once the June-Present changelog is updated, it'll include that
The “Drow Assassin” statblock from the waterdeep dragon heist adventure has its sneak attack damage roll mixed up: right click enables advantage, not crit damage.
Is there a way to add encounters to campaigns?
Yes. On the encounter creation page when selecting the characters, you'll see a "Manage Characters" button where you can select one of your active campaigns that you DM for.
You can technically create encounters for campaigns even if you're not the DM if you really wanted to.
Oh ok, thank you! 😊
I cant currently download QUests from the infinite staircase on the DBB app on IOS. Please, so i can read through it on the airplane? (its the only reason I bought this version) 😅
What happens when you try?
Currently on iOS there is an error message when attempting to download the Quests from the Infinite Staircase - it attempts to download then returns a Download Failed error text under the button to download it.
Potentially it hasn't been fully deployed yet across all DDB services.
Anyone have any way of downloading it offline on browser...?
Print to PDF from your browser could potentially work. Might not be the best user experience but if all else fails...
ahh this might be smart.. im trying to Save Page As
but im worried how well thatll work offline
Anyhow as I've been able to recreate the issue with not being able to download Quests through the mobile app, I've passed that on back so hopefully the devs can figure what is happening.
Save Page As? Or print to PDF?
Printing to PDF will just create PDF files that you can view so should be fine for offline reading.
I'd also suggest getting a different book downloaded for reading as I'm pretty sure this mobile app download issue won't be addressed tonight.
oh this is tidier, thank you
I can’t find a necmather character on the beyond app were do I find it when I crest a character
The wizard necromancer subclass can be found in the the 2014 Players Handbook. You will need to either own that book on DnDBeyond (https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/category/players-handbook?pid=SRC-00002) or be in a campaign with content sharing enabled that has access to that book and create that character inside that campaign to access it.
When I buy the book can you unlock the necromancer? On the beyond app
Not yet I do not have the book yet
Buying the 2014 Player’s Handbook would let you use the School of Necromancy subclass for any characters you create.
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/all-rulebooks/players-handbook?pid=SRC-00002
Hello, im trying to give my character a feat from Planescape, i have it enabled on the home section and i own the book but the feats arent showing up, any reason?
Do you meet the prerequisites for the feat?
One Question: if I buy the rulebooks on DnD beyond to get it in Germany … do I get the dragon statue and the dice too?! Or just the physical and digital rulebooks in a bundle ?!
You cannot buy the digital + physical bundles through D&D Beyond if you are in Germany, you will need to buy them through dndstore.wizards.com
But buying any digital + physical bundle there will get you the relevant exclusive pre-order bonuses
I need technical support but I don't know if I should be asking here or elsewhere 😅
Is it support with D&D Beyond?
Yupp!
Then #ddb-support is the correct channel
Idk if anyone else has had this issue, but no matter what I do I can't buy anything from the market place!
Paypal won't work, and everytime I enter a card it just says it failed
Have you tried the following:
- Incognito mode
- Different browser
- Different device
- Different internet connection
Also there's the possibility it could be your bank rejecting the transaction
I will try 1 & 2! 3 doesn't make a difference as it's both browser and app, and 4 I've also tried.
I've tried with multiple cards from different banks unfortunately ...
both browser and app
The DDB marketplace is only accessible through browser, not the app
The app goes through either Google Play or Apple App Store
ah well I tried using browser on my phone but it didn't work
Number 1 failed again, will try 2
Is there a chance that because I'm in Japan it won't work?
I don't know I'm afraid. Your best bet is contacting customer service

Thanks anyway 🙂
Has there been an update for this issue? I'm having the exact same problem he's having
Can you create a customer support ticket for this? See the info here on how to do that: #ddb-support message
The devs took a look at it and they think they got it fixed. Try downloading the book again when you have a chance - I was able to successfully download it this time.
Good morning. How many are having problems accessing Quests From the Infinite Staircase? I have tried everything and I am not allowed to see it. I am supposed to have early access as it was purchased months ago. Is there an issue online?
Early access for Quests is only for purchases from dndstore.wizards.com
If you did purchase it from there, you should have received a redemption code by email at the time of purchase. You'll need to redeem that code before you'll be able to access it in D&D Beyond.
Otherwise, the book will be available on release day, July 16.
Early access for all other upcoming books, starting with the new Player's Handbook, will instead be available as a DDB subscriber benefit. Master Tier subscribers will get the book two weeks early (starting on Sept 3 for the PHB).
Thank you for your response. I am confused as to why and what the difference is but now I understand.
The why is that they've changed the early access process
The what is up until Quests from the Infinite Staircase, you got early access if you pre-ordered the digital + physical bundle via dndstore.wizards.com
Now, starting with the 2024 Player's Handbook, you get 2 weeks early access if you pre-order and have a master tier sub, and 1 week if you pre-order and have a hero tier sub
Yeah, Quests follows the same criteria that early access has always had. That criteria is changing starting with the PHB.
So question, with the new books coming out, will dndbeyond still work for those who want to play 5e? And what happens to all the books I bought online?
The new books are D&D fifth edition. It's not a new edition
Nothing specific has been announced but you won't lose access to your 2014 PHB, 2014 DMG, or 2014 MM
Hello all! I'm getting ready for Gencon. I wanted to create a dndbeyond campaign that players at the convention could easily acess with premade characters. Has anyone done this? DO I use a QR code?
@tulip rune If you add the premade characters to your campaign, then all you need to do is give them the invite link.
You could create a QR code from that link if you wanted (using some other site).
Do I make the premades unassigned?
Yes
Anyone joining the campaign can choose an unassigned character from the campaign.
(Or they can create a new character or add one of their own existing characters.)
Also note that non-subscribers are allowed up to six characters; if they've got six already, they won't be able to claim any of your unassigned characters.
So if someone doesn't see the option to claim one, that could be the cause.
But they could still view them for the convention, right?
I suppose you could give them the public link to simply view the character, without them adding it to their account.
They wouldn't be able to make any changes to the sheet, though.
And they wouldn't be able to roll dice from it, or view the Description or Notes sections.
Another alternative is to just print several copies of the pdf of your premade character sheets. That way you don't have to worry about resetting the characters if you are running the session more then once with the same premades
If I was running multiple sessions for the same character sheets, I'd just set the character up once, then hit "Copy".
Heya! I preordered the digital physical bundle for Quests from the Infinite Staircase on June 28th. Did I miss out on the early access benefit?
If you ordered the bundle from dndstore.wizards.com, you should have received an email at the time of purchase with a redemption code.
I ordered it on D&DBeyond.
Early access for Quests is only for purchases on dndstore.wizards.com.
Oh, okay.
Worth noting, though, that the early access requirements are going to change starting with the 2024 PHB.
It will instead be available as a DDB subscriber benefit.
So Master Tier subscribers will get the digital book two weeks early (starting on Sept 3 for the PHB).
So pre-order on D&DBeyond. Got it.
Worth noting that I paid for a third of a price when I preordered it, then the rest when the book shipped. Not a complaint; I think that's a pretty cool thing.
That would help with my decision on preordering the corebooks. So about $60 upfront, then $40 for each physical book once shipping starts, give or take on sales tax and the like.
TBH, I'm not sure of the details on that. 😅
It's something I just noticed. I was expecting to pay it full upfront.
Yeah, I've heard similar from other users.
I just don't want to promise that $60 upfront if I can't find it outright stated anywhere. 🙊
Its the beginning feat that is tied to the backgrounds, and the backgrounds dont show up either
And you purchased the book yourself?
Fair enough. Thought people should know, just in case.
It sounds like you either have Planescape content disabled for the character, you don't own the book / aren't in a campaign where it is shared with you, or your entitlements are not in sync (check your account licenses page).
Ohh okay apparently my group doesnt own Planescape, i thought we did because beyond was letting me looks through the book. But guess not. Thanks
It might be shared with you through a different campaign then, yeah.
Shared character options are available only for characters inside the campaign that's sharing it.
So I'm on mobile trying to make a homebrew feat (in browser, not in the app), and in the prerequisites, options, modifiers, spells, actions, and creatures page, the modifiers tab refuses to show me the "add a modifier" button. The corner icon keeps swapping between a + and - sign, but nothing happens. And it's only the modifiers tab
The homebrew tools are not optimised for mobile view and as such you may encounter issues like this
Your best bet is to use a desktop browser
I was mainly on mobile because I'm not home to use the computer
Still, that's good to know
so i preordered all 3 of the new books to save on the digital vertions in that bundle. the bundle was 180 usd but i only was charged 70 usd will i get charge later for the other 110 or what
Not sure if this is the best channel but I don't see a 2014 vs 2024 Sorcerer article (yet). Is that coming or are we not getting one?
You'll be charged per book
i only got charged for 1? when will i get charged for the other 2?
Nearer their release dates
It's because each book ships separately (you won't want to be waiting until Feb for all three)
You can try turning your phone sideways.
That actually worked, thanks
Hello , I am running a game and for some reason my players can’t access feats and other characters leveling abilities. If a player of mine left the campaign would the content from them still be available ?
When Content Sharing is enabled, the whole group’s books get shared with everyone else.
Much like if you were playing IRL, if one person left and took their books with them, they would no longer be available to use.
Thank you , it still dose not seem to let me share the content that listed in the campaign section.
Can you give a specific example of a feat you’re unable to use?
hiii, having some issues where whenever i try to mess around with ddb maps, it refuses to load anything and keeps coming up with the error loading map page, can i possibly have a bit of help?? ive contacted ddb support already but would like to see if here works better for me😅
does anyone know how to the normal dexterity bonus you have when not wearing armor (for homebrew)
im trying to make a race which has unarmored defense that scales off of your dex mod plus PB but, when i go to ignore dexterity bonus it still remains
and is adding alongside the unarmored defense
I preordered the digital bundle (PHB, DMG, MM) and already got the PHB boni.
Do i also get with this bundle the other boni (Golden Dragon, etc) or do i need to order the Digital&Physical bundle to get this ?
I thought to get the Golden Dragon and other boni, i need to pre-order either the Digital Bundle or the Physical Bundle, no?
And when will the additional boni will be released ?
If you check your dice collection, you will see that you have 13 new dice, 12 class dice (PHB bonus) and the golden dice (Bundle bonus)
Bonuses for other books will be released closer to the release of said books
The golden dragon mini bonus will be released with the closed beta of the D&D 3d VTT (as stated in the description) and the digital art book will be released at a later date
I have the 12 dice (for classes) but not the golden ones.
Not in the DDB app, nor on DDB in browser.
You'll need to check your entitlements are in sync
Otherwise contact customer support
This post details what bonuses are awarded for what pre-orders
Its synced. I contact service.
I think my DDB App has some kind of trouble syncing. It shows the right character with updated class and all that but doesn't show it anymore once I open the sheet.
be aware, if you have more than 6 characters, cancelling will lock them all, and youll need to go to My Characters and choose 6 to unlock
and if you have homebrew in your collection, you will not be able to remove it
ah sorry, didnt see you said on the app. i dont believe you can cancel from there
If you're in one of the app's modal windows, just hit the x/close button on the modal.
Does “end my hero” mean to cancel a Hero Tier subscription, or to close a character sheet?
I can't select any of the Critical Role subclasses in the character builder, even when I have CR content toggled on.
When I go into the Game Rules tab and select the Wizard for example, I can see the chronurgy and graviturgy subclasses which are from Critical Role. But when I go into the character builder and toggle on CR content, I can't see either of those options when picking the subclass.
I tested this with other classes too. None of the CR subclasses are showing up, but the Blood Hunter class is still showing up for some reason.
I’m betting the book is being shared with you through a campaign, and your character doesn’t belong to that campaign.
Shared character options are available only for characters inside the campaign that’s sharing them.
I don't have any of my own characters in anyone's campaigns, only other people's characters in my campaigns. Does the content sharing go both ways?
It does indeed
Once Content Sharing is enabled for a campaign (regardless of who enabled it), then everyone’s books get shared with everyone else.
Good to know
So I can see the content shared to me but not be able to use it with any of my characters?
I've been poking around for a while now but can't find a relevant answer (that is to say, all the solutaions I have found don't seem to work anymore). I would like to know how to turn off auto-crit rolls on my ddb character sheet, is it still possible?
You’d only be able to use it for characters inside that campaign.
I don’t believe that’s possible.
You can right-click the box to change options for that specific roll.
But I don’t think there’s a way to permanently change the defaults.
Okay thanks, it would appear that it used to be something you could change but it's no longer a thing. Appreciate the response 😄
Still: The sneak attack roll dmg roll of the Drow Assasin statblock is still incorrectly written as a straight roll, resulting in a right click giving you the option to roll advantage. Should be a damage roll with the option to roll crit dmg.
This was passed along the first time you mentioned it
Hey, is there a way to share my DDB account between my computer and phone?
Yes, just log in with the same details
Thanks!
I made a homebrew monster on the D&D Beyond website, and then went to look at it on my iPad in the iOS app. Nowhere to be found. Has this functionality been implemented yet? If so, how do I access? If not, please prioritize viewing (if not creating) homebrew content in the app. Thanks!
PS - Yes I know I can view in a browser on an iPad, but not as convenient. And certainly not practical on a phone.
Homebrew in the app is only supported on character sheets.
You could in theory add your homebrew monster to a character sheet under Extras.
Otherwise, it'll only be viewable through a browser.
teeny bump^^
Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?
yep i tried it on my safari
i havent tried to see if it works on my phone mainly because itd be too small and tedious
ill see what happens if i connect to my phone data instead of my home internet one moment
nope even that isnt working
ill have a crack at it on my phone
ok thats weird, it works perfectly on my phone?
Are you using a VPN on your computer device? Or third-party security/anti-virus service? Either of those could be interfering with normal map functionality.
A phone would bypass that using cellular data
ususally
dont think so? i know im not paying for any vpns at the moment (my parents thought they were illegal lmao) and being that im on ipad i doubt there would be any third party security stuff but im not sure
Oh not likely then unless your ISP is doing silly network shaping shennanigans
Hmmm. Can you try clearing your iPad's browser's cache and trying again?
unsure what an ISP is💀
ive tried that, i can try again though
Oh sorry - Internet Service Provider (ISP)
Whatever company you pay for your internet access
OH its possible, they did some weird stuff with my access to a website called picrew a couple months ago
Ruh roh
Do you have another computer device you can use? I might suggest trying another computer device on your network using the ISP's service to just doublecheck - if that 2nd computer device still has issues, then I'd say it's time to contact your internet provider and see if they can help troubleshoot what's happening.
So far we got iPad - fails
Phone - works, possibly because cellular data
my phone works perfectly, but otherwise i dont have access to another working device that is mine
i DO have a laptop, but its completely nonfunctional
hence why ive been using my ipad
Oof. Okay so we don't really have a way on your end to rule out your internet service doing something funky with the network traffic which breaks maps...
i could ask my mum if i can use her macbook but thats unlikely because its her work laptop
But it's just to check connecting to a website... but I understand
Could you go to a friends house and use their internet and see if it works there?
what would turning on local network do?
you remind me about how all my friends are across the globe lmfao /lightheartedjoke
Just trying to rule out any ISP/network shennanigans
But maybe it's time to call up your internet provider and see what they can do to try and troubleshoot this
i know, ill ask mum about me borrowing her laptop for a couple to mess around with it in a few minutes, ill have a look at my devices settings while i wait (shes outside and its too cold rn for me to go out there LMAO
I'll need to step away here but good luck with this! Hopeuflly we can figure out what the issue is and get you back to using maps again!
thank you!! ill let you know how i go😁
Briefly popping back in - is this iPad a school device by chance?
The school may have things locked down on it that could interfere with stuff.
Nope! We even had a look in our family settings (didnt find much)
Sorry for the slightly late reply, was talking to mum abt this aswell lol
I can quickly grab a screenshot/recording of what exactly occurs if you want
I also tested it in incog mode on my ipads chrome, which also did not work if thats helpful at all
Heya chat, I'm looking at d&d beyond for a campaign and I'm making a souknife. For some reason, it would seem thrown weapon fighting isn't applying directly to the weapon, so I'm working on customizing the psychic blades. I had a dex mod of +3 and am proficient, so it looks like these would be correct since thrown weapon fighting will add a +2 to the dmg roll, but I was hoping someone might be willing to verify I've made these correctly.
I added a custom melee attack to replace the melee version so I have separate attacks for when I'm throwing the knife vs melee attacking with it. Now I just need to repeat the process with the bonus actions, but wanted to make sure it looks right
Hey there, I'm doing a Strixhaven campaign and one of my players isn't able to choose any of the schools for their background. Anyone know why that would happen?
someone in the campaign needs to own it, content sharing needs to be enabled, the character must be made in the campaign, and i think magic the gathering content might need to be on
It was the Magic the Gathering part that we missed. I usually have everything turned off.
For some reason my character wouldnt update its interface in the app after i updated it in the web, and its been like that for a few weeks now, anyone knows why and how to fix it?
Hey I hope someone can help me explain a few things regarding preorder perks for the 2024 rulebooks.
I live in germany and ordered via dndstore.wizards.com/eu, I ordered all 3 digital physical bundles but in seperate orders. The last time I pre-ordered planescape and the deck together but both only got shipped after the reprint of the deck was ready 🙄
So my question:
- Do I still get the pre-order perks for buying all 3 core rulebooks (digi/print bundle) even thow they have differend order numbers?
- Do I need to reorder them all at once and risk getting all physical books only when the MM is out?
- Is there no chance to get the perks anyway in Germany?
Because in the past books that where preordered did NOT ship when they where released but only when the last is released I ordered them on the same day but with seperate order numbers, do you know if I still get the perks or do I need to reorder?
If you've preordered all 3 books through the https://dndstore.wizards.com then yes, you will get all the preorder perks associated with that preorder.
No reordering needed.
Hey! I've had this problem with Feats for quite a bit and i'm not too sure what to do. It's mainly with
"Increase X score by 1, to a maximum of 20"
I'm not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, But it seems to surpass the limit of 20
- I also attacked the Modifier if that helps
Seems right, actually
Do you have something else on that character that’s raised the max?
On the character i was testing in this instance I had a mutagen consumed, But i'll make a plceholder to see if that changes anything
That worked! I do have manually change scores sometimes depending on whether certain custom races don't work, so maybe thats what caused it?
Mutagens increase your maximum for a score so that behavior seems correct. Manual score adjustment would certainly affect it too, as you noted.
Rn I'm trying to log into my acc with the app since I already made an acc with the website but it said verification error or smth after I confirmed it thru my gmail
Guys?
I don’t have a great answer for you, but I encountered a similar problem authenticating on mobile some months back and the only fix was to create a Wizards account, link it to my DNDB account on Firefox, unhook my Google account, then use the Wizards account to log in on mobile.
If that’s not what you’re experiencing, you might consider logging in on a web browser to see if it needs anything else before successfully logging in on mobile.
Ye I already logged in there but when I went back to the app it said error or smth
Uh
At this point you may need to reach out to WoTC support to get the Wizard account cleared up - see https://support.wizards.com/hc/en-us
I logged in there what now
I was wondering if there was any news about the PayPal/Payment problems for Canada, as i've seen in the forums, I try and buy some new books and it tells me all is unavailable. Is there any updates ?
I believe the team’s been made aware of the issue. I can double-check.
I don’t know the status beyond that.
DDB doesn't load in firefox? No other fixes?
It’s currently loading for me in Firefox.
DnDBeyond works with Firefox assuming you’ve allowed 3rd party cookies and are not blocking pop ups and not aggressively blocking tracking
Hey everyone, is it still possible only to buy ELEMENTS of a sourcebook? If so, how do you do that? I keep only seeing the option to buy the entire book...?
They removed a la carte quite a bit back unfortunately....
NP. If you have any feedback partaining to the remove of a la carte, feel free to voice it in the #ddb-feedback
(They may have gone a bit too quite about it, but our voices still need to be heard)
Tried reinstalling 3 times
Are you actually signed into a Google account in your device settings?
If so and it still isn’t working, you may need to create a Wizards account and link that instead.
Ayy having the same problem
After you authenticate it brings u back to the same screen like the image above
Actually
It worked after the 4th try smh
I used to be able to buy individual items from books. Is that no longer possible or am I just missing a step? I was trying to buy the Drakewarden subclass for Ranger but it seems the only way to get it buy the whole book.
Yeah, a la carte was removed quite recently..
Is dndbeyond down (constantly loading) for anyone else or just me?
anyone else having an issue with dndbeyond lagging, or not even letting you sign in?
Devs have been made aware of it. It could take some time until it is worked out with it being the weekend.
well dang, i have an onyline session in 5 mins lol
If I have a Master tier account, and I pre-order the 2024 Player's Handbook, I get early access on September 3rd -- but do other players get early access, too, if I'm sharing content with them in a campaign?
Yep!
That's how that works. In order for them to use those 2024 PHB character creation options on a character, that character will have to be in the campaign where you're sharing it with them.
Great, thanks!
Any updates on the fate of pre-2024 handbook characters? I can't imagine they'll be removed completely, but now I'm wondering if we'll have to "convert" our old characters to be compliant with the new rules in order to view/use them once the new phb is released.
I'm probably just overthinking this though
You can play pre 2024 characters with the new rules. You don't have to upgrade them if you do not want to.
i need help with a character sheet issue. im trying to edit my characxter and add some new stuff but the font isnt resizing to fit everything and its halting being able to update my and my friends character
Can you share a screenshot?
I’ll use a screen shot from my phone.its cutting everything off like this
Oh, in the PDF
I never use the PDF. 
I just use the sheet on the site itself or in the mobile app.
The app will let you use it offline, too, if needed. Just open it while you have internet access first to download.
it seems to just be my ipad? which is very strange
hello, i was wondering if there was a way to add more known spells for my sorcerer and warlock players, i cannot add any other spells past their normal known spells limit
if there is not then i'm genuinely curious because wizards in ddb can add as many spells as they want iirc
(ofc with the limit of having to add the spell to their spellbook but that's besides the point)
Wizards can add spells that way because that's how the rules are. Other classes don't learn spells that way, so it's not supported for them to.
is there any way i can bypass this feature? like, i get why it's limited but there should've been an option to remove this cap
There's no option because the site is built to support official rules, but you could likely build a custom magic item or feat that gives them more spells.
gotcha
anyone having trouble checking out on ddb?
I'm trying to purchase Tasha digital and physical bundle and getting Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'classList')
nvm all good
You can add a homebrew feat or subclass that adds the spells you want them to have.
How can I search my books by page in the website?
It’s not possible to search by page.
is there a way to request that at least page numbers be added to digital books for reference? In character sheets it references pages for each ability but then if you only have digital content you can't find things very easily.
It’s been requested before. I wouldn’t know the status beyond that.
But you can also just click on any of those abilities and it’ll show you the full rules for it.
One thing that doesn't work is when people use the Origin Manager option that Tasha's allows, when they switch all of their proficiencies to anything it just references the Basic Rules.
Are you able to - as a Master tier, lock the allowances for characters created in your campaign? Like turn on and off the stuff in the HOME page so the using in your campaign cannot change them and turn on HOMEBREW for ex.?
Wanting more fine tuned controls for character creation in campaigns is something that's been requested a lot, but there isn't currently a way to limit it.
why is there no ption to upcast dissonant whispers when i have them in my fey touched feature? its just offered as lvl 1
I believe that's just a limitation of the sheets programming. I don't think it shows up casting for any spells added through feats or items.
I'm using Spectator view to display on a TV on the tabletop. Occasionally we go for awhile without making any changes to the map.
The map appears to timeout and goes black after awhile.
This makes the map very hard to use. It cause me to refresh the map, restart a spectator view, and then readjust the map again to match the Minis on the TV.
Why does it timeout?
Can we have a setting to adjust the timeout settings?
Or can it give us a warning that it is going to timeout.
Why does it timeout?
It's still in Alpha and things like this can happen. you're best submitting this as feedback
Can we have a setting to adjust the timeout settings?
No, that's not possible
Or can it give us a warning that it is going to timeout.
That would be good feedback to submit
wish they fix it
It's not a limitation or bug, it's an intentional choice based on user feedback
Originally spells granted by feats, races, etc showed up on your spell list to cast using spell slots but people complained it cluttered up the spell list. So following that feedback (I believe there was actually a user feedback survey) it was changed so that spells that could be cast using spellslots from outside your spellcasting feature wouldn't be listed in your spell list
I stand corrected 🫡
There is a option to turn of spells that upscale tho
That's for spells in your spell list
That stops spells being listed multiple times
On the mainpage of DDB, it says "master tier" gets early access to the 2024 core rulebook. When I click on it, it sends me to the login page, even though I'm logged in. Is there any other place to find the early access 2024 core rulebook or has it not been released it?
It releases in Zeptember, and I think you need to pre order it?
but what is considered the core rulebook, because DMG and PHB might both be called it. I thought it was just a 2024 version of the basic rules,
The core rulebooks are the PHB (releasing Sept. 17), the DMG (Nov. 12), and the MM (Feb. 18).
If you’ve preordered any of those and have a Master Tier subscription, you’ll get access two weeks earlier, starting with the PHB on Sept. 3.
(A Hero Tier subscription gets it one week early, starting with the PHB on Sept. 10.)
ah, okay, thank you
anyone know a quick fix for cards declining on website and app i've already got a customer support ticket but wondering if anyone has fixed it before
Sometimes bank verification errors happen because what the bank has on record for your address doesn't match what you put into store - so the bank rejects the payment.
You may need to double check and make sure your address you're putting in matches what the bank has on record.
Additionally you may need to contact your bank and explain things as sometimes they just block online payments because they somehow flag DnDBeyond as an unexpected transaction and block it.
Every time i try to add anything or remove anything from my charachter it dosent work, it just says "could not add item"
Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?
If I order the digital/physical 2024 core rulebooks bundle (all 3 books), do I get the exclusives that come with each individual book preorder? Like the digital dice skins for the 10 classes that come with the digital phb preorder?
12 classes, but yes
Each digital pre-order comes with a set of pre-order bonuses
Any bundle pre-order comes with an exclusive set of pre-order bonuses
Bundles include
- Any digital + physical bundle
- Any multi-book bundle
I think you're confirming I'd get bundle + individual bonuses, not just the bundle bonus. Sorry I can be dense
If you're pre-ordering a digital book, you'll get the D&D Beyond pre-order bonuses (for example, the Player's Handbook giving you the 12 dice set)
If you pre-order any bundle (any bundle), you'll get the exclusive bundle pre-order bonuses (gold dice, art book, etc)
This means if you pre-order a bundle that includes a digital book, you will get both
If you pre-order a bundle that includes all the digital books, you'll get all the pre-order bonuses
This forum post explains it more thoroughly
That's perfect, thank you for the help!
How do i do in spells of arce that he can use it one per day, but also with a spell slot?
What do you mean by "spells of arce"?
Hey, is there any information on when will the saving throw and ability check rolls be fixed so that the digital dice will start rollin on left mouse click?
(It is possible to right click and then select the roll, but it is bit inconvenient and also my plugin (beyond20) doesn't get it to move the roll to roll20. I was first sure it was an issue with the plugin or the VTT, but then I realized it is not giving the roll with left mouse button even on the D&Dbeyond game log.)
D&D Beyond does not support Beyond20 or any VTT other than Maps
If you're using a third party extension or add-on and are experiencing issues, the first thing you should is fully disable or better yet remove the extension and try again
I've just loaded some characters on desktop, mobile, and the app and all saving throw buttons, as well as attacks and ability checks, are working for me
Thank you for your help. I wish it wasn't like that but disabling the plugin seems to do the trick.
It's like that because the extension is breaking the site
Not the site itself breaking
Race, in homebrow
If you want it to show up both ways, you'd need to Add Spell twice -- once for each version.
So for one you'd set "Number of Uses" to "1", and for the other you'd set "Consumes Spell Slot" to "Yes".
All the other settings should be the same for both.
i tried
the 1 with the only spell slot do not apere
Sometimes homebrew edits can take up to 15 minutes to appear.
Beyond that, I'm not sure. Best advice would be to look for an official race that does that. Then you can make a homebrew copy and see exactly how they set it up.
i know, can i DM u?
I pre-ordered the new core rulebooks along with the digital versions, but when I try and 'redeem product keys that will unlock content for your account' I get an error saying 'This code has already been redeemed and cannot be used'
Where do I submit the feedback? I thought that was here.
No, because this is ddb-support, not ddb-feedback and even then, Maps feedback should go through the feedback survey you can find on the maps landing page or maps itself (the grey tab in the bottom left)
Does the book show here under Current Product Licenses?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses
yes, I can see it there followed by Grant Type: Product Key *
Sounds like your code has been successfully redeemed, then. You're all set!
Where can I see the frames and dice you get for preordering infinite staircase? Can’t seem to find them
Go to your character sheet and select the customisation options
Was only able to find this.
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/26kqLUL1YAkoo3yV/?mibextid=WC7FNe
See posts, photos and more on Facebook.
No I mean before preordering
Yesterday I could not save a new Encounter, and the issue is still the same today. Is there somethink I can do to fix this?
O, sorry. Solved it. One of my party created half of a character. in the campaign, that messed things up 😦
Guys I have a question, Im on DnD Beyond and I made a character and filled out every single section and it keeps telling me it’s incomplete in either class race or ability scores but everything is filled out.
What method did you choose for ability scores? If anything is missing or messed up, that seems like the most likely place it would be
I did the roles on the app, and them i took those and manually applied them with the scores
You should be able to share screen shots. Share what the screen shows you.
Ok, so you are using the "override score" box. That is not the correct place to input your score.
oooh
It should go in the blank box underneath the rolled number
oh omg thank you so much
I hope so, I didn't get any confirmation or success messages when I tried to redeem, only errors.
You have a license on your account, you're good
As a side note, i'd recommend starting with either point buy or the standard array option since you're new.
This helps give you a better frame of reference when building a character, since different Dungeon Masters have different preferences when it comes to rolled stats.
You’re amazing thank you I will go change that!
fellas i just got the subscription and im tryna make a harengon character but none of my extra content is showing up in the character creator, is this supposed to happen or nah
having a subscription doesnt give you access to content, you need to own the race or be in a campaign with content sharing with someone who does
I just experimented around with the circle of spores Druid subclass. The “chill touch” Cantrip which gets awarded as a “circle spell” does not seem to benefit from any item that improves the spell attack rolls of the Character (for example the moon sickle). Is that a bug?
Harengon are in “The wild beyond the witchlight” - do you own that book on the site? Or is it shared with you through a campaign? The subscription does not give you access to it in itself.
nvm i guess i could've sworn it said the sub gave access to the books but alr
guess i was just blind
my fault
can i just buy a race and class though i dont have 70 dollars for books i prolly wont use
not anymore
that's so dumb tf
A la carte purchases are not available anymore.
feel free to leave your feedback on it in the feedback channel. it does get passed up the chain
is this a common complaint or would it be pointless
fairly common weeks ago when they made the change
i was 2 weeks late that's crazy sauce
After pre-ordering the 2024 PHB where will I find the digital dragon art book in Dndbeyond?
It hasn’t been released yet.
Quick question, when using the find steed paladin second level spell, how do I make a warhorse appear in the encounter with its own initiative under the control of the player that casted it? And yes, he already added is War horse using the extras/manage extras option so the stat block does appear. Fyi, this is a Homebrew summon creation not that it really matters.
In short I'm using the d&d beyond encounter option that shows everyone's initiatives and the monsters initiatives. I'm trying to make the players War horse appear as well without adding the warhorse as an actual monster under my control.
as far as i know, you cant add a creature under the players control, youd have to just add it to the encounter like any other monster
The Corebook 2024 bundle bonuses are:
- 15 digital dice includimg the golden ones
- 34 frames
- 15 backdrops
- Digital art book
- The miniture for DDB 3D VTT.
what of this content is already released ? I often hear the golden dice are but i have the digital bundle, many of my friends have it to or a digital+physical bundle. But noone of us already have golden dice, only the 12 class dice.
Is this a europe problem or just wrong infos that the golden dice are already out.
Our entitlements are synced and we also cleared cache and cookies (and all other steps from this but nothing changed.
If you're experiencing difficulties viewing monster stat blocks in the Encounter Builder, encountering issues with certain features in the Character Sheet, missing books in the mobile app, or encou...
Only the pre-order bonuses for the Player's Handbook have been released
common but it's been raised quite a bit already. the team is aware so at this point it's wait and see if anything changes.
sometimes pre-order bonuses also release the day the book is out. not always the case that it unlocks when you buy or pre-order
I pre-ordered "QUESTS FROM THE INFINITE STAIRCASE" which is supposed to be released today and anything I click on in the contents takes me to the market place to purchase, I did get the bonuses but the content is supposed to be available today. This is why I don't normally pre-purchase.
They will usually make an announcement when it is actually rolling out/completed rolling out
The content will be made available today, but this process usually starts after the office hours at DDBHQ have started and the team has spun up for the day so the process can be supervised in case anything goes awry
I guess I thought when the countdown timer was gone it should have been available.
The team typically targets 7am PT / 9am CT / 10am ET / 3pm BST (UK) for releases.
That's the countdown for when the pre-order window ends
And also to the day of release rather than the exact hour
Hopefully won't be long now though
Thanks. I'll check again this afternoon, just anxious to access the content from adventures I played as a teen 😉
I'm trying to install the quest from the infinite stair case for the app and it keep failing to install, any one else having this issue
It hasn't been announced as fully released yet, so you're perhaps being premature
Ok
My question from earlier, i am not sure if it is a bug or me doing/understanding something wrong: I just experimented around with the circle of spores Druid subclass. The “chill touch” Cantrip which gets awarded as a “circle spell” does not seem to benefit from any item that improves the spell attack rolls of the Character (for example the moon sickle). Is that a bug or did I do something wrong? Or is it a rules thing: Does the chill touch cantrip not benefit from a plus to attack rolls?
I think it's just a system limitation.
Because it does not have the “Druid” spells tag or something? Mhm, i can perhaps “homebrew” around that.
Much appreciated - will try to solve it with homebrew, was just striking me as “odd”.
Dead link to dracolich in MM

Seems to be a wider issue with the book. I've passed it along for review.
wtf is going on in feedback
it's absolute chaos
Can y'all never again ping everyone 
be aware, this may violate server rules
it's out of control
DDB had an oopsie
Dnd beyond is apparently having an issue with statblocks
This channel is for Support help for D&D Beyond. Please keep it like that
Where are we supposed to talk about it?
We clearly cant do that in the channel like we normally would have
It will probably be fine to use that channel once it's cleaned up and calmed down.
But the one that got blocked was the feedback channel, this is the support channel, no?
Yeah
it is, it's the channel for asking for support, not talking about what happened in the feedback channel
I think an entire product not functioning on the website where you purchase said product is worthy of the global comment, it just belonged in a different channel. Fortunately, a good workaround for this issue for now is to route to the stat blocks via the Encounter Builder.
from Eberron there is the mark of shadow elf race, however despite including Eberron as a source on DnD Beyond the mark of shadow elf race doesnt seem to be an option when creating a character? am i doing somethign wrong or somethign?
Do you own the book or are you making the character in the campaign where the book is shared with you?
uhhhhh neither, im just creating a character and in world anvil there is a mark of shadow elf race but its from Eberron
If you don't own the book and aren't having it shared with you, you won't have access to it
ok...
Mind putting a time zone on that downtime announcement 
#ddb-feedback is still closed, but I still wanted to report an issue with the book that just released today: The Drelnza stat block on this page (https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/qftis/creatures#Drelnza) is not rendering its image and shows this error message:
There is
Details:
Date: July 23rd
Time: 4:00am PT (UTC -7)
Maintenance Window: 1 hour
its displayed in your time zone automagically
Fair, very hard to see that it’s in the unix syntax on mobile with the amoled mode on. I’ll look more closely next time.

if i preorder all 3 copies from the new 2024 rulebooks on the WotC EU shop, ill get the DDB preorder benefits too, correct?
Correct
coolio, do i need to do anything special (like link accounts) to be able to get them?
do i need to order them at the same time?
will the PDF on DDB aviable the moment they release or on the last books release?
i heard there was a FAQ about it but i either am blind or missed it.
D&D Beyond doesn't do pdfs
When you order the digital + physical bundle, you'll be emailed a code to redeem on D&D Beyond. Redeeming that code will grant you the pre order bonuses
i didnt get emailed a code, the license for the digital went right into my account 🤔
That'd be for ordering through the D&D Beyond marketplace
The EU shop does a code
Because it's not linked to your DDB account
Post type: Bug/no capability
Class: Artificer
Issues/Bugs: Multiple
First issue: Armorer Artificer level 9 feature does not add the 2 Infusion slots for only being used on the Armor Subclass Feature Armor (Infiltrator/Guardian)
Second Issue: Unable to add Enhanced Defense to any armor made of a special material (This might be due to the lacksidasicle coding of labeling special material armors and weapons as Magical when they are not. They are just made of unique metals)
Each book will be available on DDB on their individual release days -- or up to two weeks early for subscribers.
but im from EU, thats why i am asking, i have to order each bookbundle seperatly
and thanks @modest pelican good to know how that works, thank you
Yes, and that's why I answered: the books will be available on their individual release days.
So the PHB, for example, will be available on Sept. 17.
Is it possible when creating homebrew things similar to a Ki save DC or a Hemocraft In which the Site automatically says the dc on the sheet?
(Example Listed Below)
Passed this along for review. Thanks!
ah ok that makes sense, i read to fast and it didnt say ebook so i was confused.
what about the phys books? do they ship separably too?
