From https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/category/4705000?pid=DB4705000&Digital:

*THIS PRODUCT IS USABLE BY MASTER TIER SUBSCRIBERS ONLY. These digital maps are only for use with Maps, the official D&D Beyond VTT, and are not downloadable.
Do we know if this will be purchasable on other VTTs like other starter packs were and runnable there? Or is this digital setup 100% exclusive to Maps?

Nevermind, just started showing up in other marketplaces since I asked. Probably won't buy it on DNDB because of the way this is set up and just get it directly from other VTT's.

DND basic rules not updating on app

[undone flame]

am I missing where has the "Redeem A Key" page been moved to? I've looked all over in the Marketplace and My Account and I'm having trouble finding it

[pearl meteor]

they basically hidden it you have to hover over your profile at the top right and in the drop down should be the link to redeem a key

[undone flame]

thank you! how frustrating!

[dapper gazelle]

If looking on Android app, it is in the triple line menu, just above Marketplace.

[pearl meteor]

really is, gifted my friend the phb and took us like 10 minutes to find it

[halcyon flicker]

Hey guys, I'd like to suggest a feature for the monster stat blocks. Is it possible to have the code snippets for homebrew show on all the monsters? Then when we want to copy it for our homebrew monsters, we wouldn't have to make a copy. If this is the wrong channel, let me know.

[dense viper]

The right channel would be #ddb-feedback

While copying them is one way to get them to work you can also just write out what you want and have the website make the code blocks for you.

There is a section on this page (https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/1651-how-to-add-rollable-dice-blocks-to-your-homebrew?srsltid=AfmBOorIc8QxLsRwesmYJn2tCVP_pfJZDPpff04pEwcauqWxkbbwQaN8) under "Automatic Rollable Dice Blocks" that can help with having the website write the code

[halcyon flicker]

Ok thanks.

https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/5399-vicious-weapon

[pearl meteor]

intentional, its the change they made to the weapon in 2024 from 2014

beacuse kind of useless when i only do 7 more damag on a crit, i want value to come out of the weapon crit

[fading bramble]

they changed how viscious weapons work in 2024. its no error

[fading bramble]

Is the Silver Dragon Shield supposed to be unknown rarity?

[edgy oriole]

From CoS?

Let me check

It appears that it is indeed an unknown rarity

[fading bramble]

is it an errata? I hear the book has them listed as rare

[edgy oriole]

Checking that now too

[fading bramble]

danke

[edgy oriole]

The CoS adventure book doesn't indicate any rarity either.

[fading bramble]

oh? Interesting

[exotic dagger]

i'm having issues with the monk optional class feature not appearing. I'm making a character that is level 3 (1 level in rogue and 2 levels in monk. The one level of rogue gives me proficiency with a rapier through the core rogue traits). The issue that i'm having is that the optional monk feature (dedicated weapon) is not showing up at all. I own the book (tasha's cauldron of everything) and have the optional class content enabled. I can go more in depth with what i have toggled on and off, but i'm just confused why the option isn't showing up in the character creation screen. Has anyone had this issue in the past? It's probably something i'm doing wrong. I'm just lost in the sauce

https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/148052589/builder/home/basic

[loud drift]

looks like you picked the 2024 version of monk and will need to change it to the 2014 version that is lower in the listing if you want the old optional rules

keep in mind that some of the old optional stuff from Tasha's now comes baked into the new 2024 versions

[exotic dagger]

yeah that's on me. appreciate you 🙂

[dapper gazelle]

Note also that more generally, you need to tick Expanded Rules in the Home tab of the character for anything from Tasha to appear, irrespective of the edition.

[hybrid turret]

Can I download the stuff I own in dnd beyond in PDF form?

[dapper gazelle]

Things that are available on Beyond to download as PDF have a button to click in the content itself.

There really is not much though. It tends to be things like character sheets or supplementary stuff. The real meat and potatoes books are not accessible as PDF.

Example, this playable PC can be acquired via PDF.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/soee/scions-of-elemental-evil#Sheila

[uneven lantern]

The official books aren’t sold anywhere as PDFs, but you can use the mobile app if you want to download your DDB books for offline use.

[woeful flicker]

I purchased the digital copy of "Dragons of Stormwreck Isle" on DNDBeyond last night, I got a confirmation email, but I can't find the book anywhere? How do I access it?

[loud sedge]

Missing Content?

If you can’t access a book or find an available character option, here’s some important things to check:

1. Are your Account Entitlements in sync? If not, you’ll see a button to let you manually trigger a sync.
2. Did you purchase the book yourself, or is it shared with you through one of your campaigns?

• If you purchased it, is it listed under Current Product Licenses?
• If it’s shared with you, is this character assigned to the campaign that’s sharing it?

3. Do you have the right checkboxes enabled in your character settings? The checkboxes at the top under “Sources” and “Partnered Content” control which options are available for your character. If in doubt, check them all.

• Are you using the right class? There are two versions of each core class: the 2024 one under "Core Rules" and the 2014 one under "2014 Core Rules". Options available for one might not be available for the other. For example, some options for Cleric (the 2024 class) might not be available for Cleric (the 2014 class) and vice versa.

[dapper gazelle]

Try the steps above. These usually resolve missing content issues or at least solve what went wrong.

[woeful flicker]

It appears as a "purchase" but I still can't access the book

[dapper gazelle]

Mainly #1 here though.

[woeful flicker]

I don't see a button to trigger sync

Do i need to subscribe to see it?

[dapper gazelle]

You should not need to, sec.

Let me see if this one has it ..

?tag ddb entitlements

[loud sedge]

Account Entitlements

Account entitlements are how D&D Beyond identifies which content you can access. These are synced automatically in time, but if you're not seeing content you should have access to, visit Account > Licenses.

The Account Entitlements section at the top should ideally say "Your entitlements data is in sync!" If not, it will show a button to manually trigger the sync, after which your content should be available.

[dapper gazelle]

Bah, same place.

Does it work in another browser, have you tried clearing cache, has it been at least 15-30 minutes since your purchase?

DDB is sometimes slow updating access rights and caches to improve efficiency.

[woeful flicker]

I purchased it last night

I am in Google Chrome, Let me try Safari

[dapper gazelle]

To address this question more directly, subscription might be necessary if you were trying to share it with others. Accessing it yourself when logged in to your own account does not require a sub.

[woeful flicker]

no luck, Safari browser didn't help

[woeful flicker]

I am DMing for my friends so only I need to see it

i am in sync too

[dapper gazelle]

Interesting. Can you try accessing entitlements from the other browser. And/or temporarily disable popup blockers? (Just for the entitlements thing. You can put it right back up.)

Running Sync fixes a lot of this exact issue so actually clicking the button might fix a DDB confused state thinking it is already synced when it might not be.

[woeful flicker]

let's see

nope

let me try one more thing

still no luck

is there a DND official support I can contact?

[dapper gazelle]

Was literally typing that up in case this did not work... 🙂

We have exhausted a number of the more common reasons I know of.

You could wait for one of the WotC people to be around (likely later today) to see if they have something to add, but you may end up having to contact Support. It can take a while to get through the people in front of you in line so you may have to be patient (some wait days or weeks).

I have included the contact support info below.

?tag ddb support

[loud sedge]

D&D Beyond customer support can be contacted at the link below. Requests are answered in the order they're received. Submitting multiple requests for the same issue can result in a delayed response.

[woeful flicker]

sounds good thank you

[uneven lantern]

What happens when you try to view this page?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/dosi/running-the-adventure

[dapper gazelle]

Ah, WotC is here, leaving you with Spamandtuna. Good luck!

[woeful flicker]

I see this, is this what I am looking for? Is this the manual?

[hybrid nova]

Yes, that is the contents of the book you purchased.

[uneven lantern]

Yep, that's it!

[woeful flicker]

ah perfect

okay I book marked, all set here. thanks!

[hybrid nova]

I think it was probably working all along, you maybe just didn't know where to look?

[woeful flicker]

that's exactly what the issue was

haha

first timer here, thanks for the help!

[hybrid nova]

No worries. For future reference, in the top bar of Beyond, there's a "Sources" category. That will show a selection of the sources available, but you can hit "View All Sources" to get to the full list.

[dapper gazelle]

If using the Android app, accessing the books is done from the far left button at the bottom. (Do not own an Apple device, so cannot help there.) App is free BTW and accesses the same content if you want it on the go without the website.

[hushed kettle]

anyone else having an issue with changing their settings from campiagn only to public?

won't let me for some reason

[dense viper]

Do you happen to have this character sheet open on a different device or tab?

[hushed kettle]

don't think so, will check.

I don't even closed all tabs and reopened... may see if I can do it on my phone instead of laptop.

[dapper gazelle]

Did you create the character? If it is a character that someone else owns but you have rights to use in the campaign, adjusting privacy might not be permitted.

[hushed kettle]

I created the character

[uneven lantern]

What happens when you try to change it, specifically?

Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?

[hushed kettle]

when I click the public circle it won't do anything and just checked other characters, won't let me change them either

let me try another browser

odd yeah it worked on a different browser... which is weird I have always used google chrome and it has worked in the past.

thanks everyone!

really appreciate it

[uneven lantern]

Sounds like it’s probably a browser extension or setting that’s interfering, then.

You could try disabling all your extensions to see if that fixes it. If so, you could re-enable them one by one to find the culprit.

[hushed kettle]

Yeah you are probably right, will check that out! Thanks again!

[sweet nymph]

my DNDBeyond Campaign Maps isn't loading properly

It is stuck on "no maps selected", but it's not giving me any dropdown to pick a map

i have maps, they aren't showing up tho

nevermind it's back 😄

[terse cave]

Having an issue updating the Basic 2024 Rules

Whenever I try it fails around 50% and doesn't give any reason, just goes back to "tap to update"

This is on mobile

[spiral cove]

I'm having the same issue I deleted and reinstalled the app and it made things worse I'm assuming it's a bug that will take time to fix

[lusty void]

Same here

[spiral cove]

I hope a DNDbeyond update happens soon just to fix that bug

[uneven lantern]

I've passed that on to the devs for review. Thanks!

[cyan beacon]

howdy hey ! i'm trying to figure some stuff as it's my first time using dndbeyond in,, a long while jeez. i know that when 2024 was first announced, it made 2014 content was more difficult to access. i also know that some changes were made to fix that a little ? i know there's a way to separate it during character creation, and i've heard that 2024 does bleed through a little. how much am i able to separate it to see only 2014 when creating a character though ? i have turned on legacy and 2014 core rules in the character creation tab.

[dense viper]

When you first make your character make sure to turn off teh toggle labled "core rules" that is the 2024 rules. And turn on the toggle labled "2014 Core Rules"

This should make it to where you mostly see the 2014 rules

-# This is a recently new toggle that has been added

[cyan beacon]

okay okay what about expanded rules ?

[dense viper]

Leave those on if you want to see the expanded rules. Like Xanathar's Guide to Everything, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, etc.

[cyan beacon]

okay okay

thank you

[little plume]

I have books downloaded on the D&Dbeyond mobile app. It keeps saying the basic 2024 rules for free have an update available, but upon trying to update, it briefly says open book before claiming there's still an update available. I deleted and re-downloaded the book but that changed nothing

[loud drift]

it's currently a known issue that will hopefully be corrected quickly

[little plume]

Ok, awesome. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't just my phone

[dapper gazelle]

For reference, this is the latest info we have (and it literally is just that it has been passed on): #ddb-support message

[little plume]

Yeah, I just needed to know it wasn't just a me issue. My phones a couple years old

[glass acorn]

Is there a way to print out monster/creature stats?

[dire blade]

Control+P in a web browser.

[leaden glen]

Anyone know how to stop Legacy Content from the Elemental Evil Player's Companion appearing available?

Even if I disable Legacy Content it will still show up as it's considered Expanded Content, yet every spell and species is labelled as Legacy.

[final zenith]

hiya, I’m new and have no idea how to find a campaign that uses ddb so I’m wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction

[edgy oriole]

Check out #find-a-game to learn how to use our Looking For Game channels to find a D&D game/group/server.

[uneven lantern]

Only 3 of its 43 spells are legacy, which is why the book itself is still in Expanded Rules.

[dire blade]

Still, the 3 spells that are legacy probably shouldn’t show up if you have legacy unchecked.

[kind silo]

I'm having an issue with the d&d beyond homebrew page, I try to add a homebrew option to my library but I can't, even though I've subscribed to the hero tier which should let me do that. Although I just subscribed to it so I don't know if I have to wait a certain amount before being able to add homebrew from others into my library

[uneven lantern]

What happens when you try?

[kind silo]

It says it requires a subscription, but I've already signed up for it

Nevermind, I figured it out!

[lusty void]

What is base starting hp for lvl 1 characters on the app? Had to reset my character and can't figure out what starting hp should be

[dire blade]

You should be able to set it to handle it automatically. That said, it’s the maximum of your hit dice size plus your CON modifier.

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, depends entirely on the character.

If you’ve got your Hit Point Type set to “Fixed”, it’ll be calculated automatically.

If you’ve got it set to “Manual / Rolled”, you’ll need to set it yourself. #dnd-rules or #dnd-newcomers can help you figure out the number for your character.

[kind silo]

I'm back again, this time with some homebrew questions.

I'm wanting to make a subclass based on this homebrew alchemist class that combines some of Pathfinder's mechanics, and I don't know where to start besides choosing artificer as the class. Any help is appreciated!

Link for reference:
https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Alchemist_(5e_Class)

[dire blade]

My #1 recommendation is to find the mechanics existing in-game that are the closest to your desired homebrew end state, make copies of those, look at how they're implemented, and go from there with your own.

[uneven lantern]

I’d generally start just by getting the features in place at the right levels.

Make sure each one has a Description (the full rules text) and a Snippet (the abbreviated rules text displayed directly on the character sheet).

And from there, you can start to figure out what else you want to add.

And if you get stuck along the way, then we can lend a hand.

[loud drift]

a minor edit to what spam said: If it's a technical question about how to put it in the system, someone here will be happy to help. If you get writers block and need some heroic inspiration then a good place to post is in #homebrew

[kind silo]

It's a technical question, and I'm stuck XD

[uneven lantern]

You gotta ask the question before anyone can answer it. 😅

[loud drift]

I think they were making a joke about not knowing what to put nor how

[humble kraken]

I have a question, didn't know where else to ask.
If, Hypothetically, I wanted to reach out to Wizards of the Coast or DnD Beyond to collaborate on a student project, who would I have to ask and where?

[edgy oriole]

You can submit a request via this form: https://dndbeyond-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[steel sparrow]

Depends on the class and your constitution modifier. the base health is typically Hit Die + Constitution

[hybrid nova]

Not so much typically as just about always (barring the Tough Feat and Dwarf). Regardless, the way Beyond handles it, the only number you need to actually care about is the number on the die, which would be the max number on your Hit Point Die.

It does the rest of the math for you.

[steel sparrow]

The only reason i didnt bring up feats is i dont know what they are playing as

[hybrid nova]

Yup! Just pointing out that the only number you need to actually know is the die number.

[mental garden]

the Aspect of the Moon invocation seem to be unavailable to my character even if i have pact of the tome is this intentional?

i have xanatars guide to everything btw so that's not the problem

[loud drift]

double check that you have selected 2014 warlock which is lower on the list of classes and not the 2024 warlock as Aspect of the Moon doesn't show up for the 2024 version

[mental garden]

that was my problem huh thats ridiculus to me it should be available to both

[loud drift]

unfortunately not all of the "old" stuff has carried over yet

[mental garden]

oh well if thats how it is that its not suposed to be available any lkonger it sucks but i have to deal with it

i hope they do add it as an option again because its good

[dapper gazelle]

According to Wizards stated way of using old books with 2024, it should be allowed. D&D Beyond is not always accurate and if missing for 2024, is incorrect here.

[uneven lantern]

As a workaround, you could just leave your invocation choice unselected, then add that as a custom action or a homebrew feat instead.

[hoary forge]

just want to check, if i get the master tier on ddb, can i share books with other players if im a player in a campaign and not dm?

[dire blade]

You can, yes, except it doesn’t work for the Maps feature right now for an unknown reason.

It works for viewing the books or character options, however.

[hoary forge]

sweet cheers

[loud drift]

Maps is still in beta which is why it has limitations and follows the trend of requiring being the person with the subscription to use its features.

[hoary forge]

my other players still cant access the books after ive enabled content sharing on the phb. they can download and read it but cant use the stuff from it

[uneven lantern]

Have them check if their entitlements are in sync.

[loud sedge]

Missing Content?

If you can’t access a book or find an available character option, here’s some important things to check:

1. Are your Account Entitlements in sync? If not, you’ll see a button to let you manually trigger a sync.
2. Did you purchase the book yourself, or is it shared with you through one of your campaigns?

• If you purchased it, is it listed under Current Product Licenses?
• If it’s shared with you, is this character assigned to the campaign that’s sharing it?

3. Do you have the right checkboxes enabled in your character settings? The checkboxes at the top under “Sources” and “Partnered Content” control which options are available for your character. If in doubt, check them all.

• Are you using the right class? There are two versions of each core class: the 2024 one under "Core Rules" and the 2014 one under "2014 Core Rules". Options available for one might not be available for the other. For example, some options for Cleric (the 2024 class) might not be available for Cleric (the 2014 class) and vice versa.

[dapper gazelle]

Also, make sure their character is in that campaign. That is an important one for the creator.

[uneven lantern]

Note that their characters will need to be assigned to your campaign to use any shared character options as well.

lol

[dapper gazelle]

Jinx, you owe me a coke?!

[little plume]

does anyone know how to select the original race for the hexblood lineage on ddb?
namely i am refering to retaining the movement on the original race, or is this something that has to be done manually inside the character sheet?

[loud drift]

has to be done manually

one of the unfortunate things that came from the Ravenloft book was that there wasn't an easy way to put all the options into the character builder programming wise

[dapper gazelle]

Assuming that it isn't a bug and that there is a way to do it, this type of thing tends to work one of two ways:

• turn on legacy and hope it is still there
• homebrew it (make a copy of something close and modify, or search the homebrew as others may have already created it)

[loud drift]

Not in this case, at least fully. Homebrewing can get you all of the feats, but the builder itself never had an option for selecting hexblood/dampire/reborn and telling it what race/species you were before.

[dapper gazelle]

Not promising then. 😦

[edgy oriole]

Yeah the D&D game designers designed things for the game that DnDBeyond doesn't yet have the capability to support fully.

[main rapids]

Can anyone get me in touch with yhe Dndbeyond devs/admins? I have an important legal matter to discuss with them that concerns child safety.

[cosmic torrent]

Is there any chance I can get help with understanding the DND Beyond homebrew system?

anyone who has a little bit of free time at least

[digital wolf]

What question(s) do you have about it?

[cosmic torrent]

Im having a hard time understanding where I need to put everything, like i wanna give a feature something but not all attacks. So im trying to make a subclass for the new gunslinger class, amd im trying to fill a niche that isn't in the other subclasses of a speed shooter, someone whose really fast on the draw but im having a hard time figuring out what and where to fill out what I need

[cosmic torrent]

Sorry for the long reply

[fast bane]

idk if i should ask this here... but this is going to be my first text outside of looking for players so uhh.. would anyone have any content i could use for a character? (ill leave it instantly as soon as im done)

[loud drift]

Do you mean character options? Outside of purchasing content there is the free version of the rules on DDB, otherwise you might hope that someone in the campaign has a master tier subscription and can turn content sharing on for the group.

https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/br-2024

[fast bane]

thank you

[uneven lantern]

The best general advice is to find an official feature that works like you want. Then you can make a homebrew copy of it to see how it was set up.

But if you can give more information about where exactly you’re stuck, we can try to give more specific advice.

[cosmic torrent]

So like copying a exsiting subclass and changing stuff around?

[loud drift]

Correct

[uneven lantern]

Or stealing its secrets and applying them to your own subclass.

[hoary forge]

i need some clarification. Say that I have a master subscription and can turn on content sharing. I own the phb and can share it with everyone. But if another player owns tasha's and doesnt have the subscription, do we still get access to it? Is the content sharing campaign wide? or just what I own being shared?

[edgy oriole]

Yes - once content sharing is enabled, everybody's content is shared with everyone else in that campaign.

[hoary forge]

awesome, thanks

[queen sage]

My email for my account got disabled and I don't know how to sign back into my account now! I'd prefer to not need to re do everything as I've made quite a few purchases as well as having a subscription

So uh... If I could get some help with that I would appreciate it!

[ornate summit]

I’m trying to make a snippet code that would show a number equal to a barbarian’s rage damage bonus + their con mod, does anyone know how to do that?

[uneven lantern]

If this is a subclass feature, you can use the Level Scaling section and set it up to match the Rage Bonus.

Then just use {{scalevalue+modifier:con}}

If it’s for a species or feat, I’m not sure this one’s possible…

[ornate summit]

It is a subclass feature

[cosmic torrent]

Can I ask what command I would use in the snippet for scaling with Profiency Bonus?

[iron wraith]

Does anyone know what happened to the Descent into the Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth on ddb?

I remember reading it, but I can't find it on D&D Beyond now

I also can't remember if I'd previously bought it or not, as its gone from my library

[remote sinew]

just had a look, it's there, go to sources then type it in and it should come up if you've got it

[loud drift]

On the website, under sources, click on either of the View All links and it will be in the Adventures section though kind of buried and easy to miss. https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/dilct/descent-into-the-lost-caverns-of-tsojcanth

This was a preview of the Infinite Staircase book which if you own can be found in the same section or at the following link https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/qftis

{{proficiency}}

You can find the full list here:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/25930-using-snippet-codes-in-your-homebrew

[dapper gazelle]

So, i was going to type that but for my own learning, since the responded to post mentioned scaling and the previous post used "scalevalue", what is scalevalue and when to use it?

[uneven lantern]

If you edit a subclass feature, you should see a section called Level Scaling.

This section lets you define a base value (like Rage’s +2 to damage) and update that value at chosen levels (like increasing that Rage damage to +3 at level 9).

That value can then be referenced in a snippet using {{scalevalue}} and it will calculate the number based on the values in Level Scaling and the character’s current level.

[dapper gazelle]

Wow, nice feature. Kudos devs. Thanks!

[maiden swift]

Is there a way to get Beyond to properly reflect the sword form of the item "Warrior's Passkey" from The Book of Many Things? Adding and attuning to it only give you access to Knock, it doesn't seem to have a toggle for switching it to the sword form nor an action to do the damage with it.

[loud drift]

One of the mods can let the devs know that it's not showing up as a weapon attack. As a work around in the meantime you can create a custom action on your sheet for the attack.

[dense viper]

You should also be able to find where its listed as being an attack and check the "display as attack" checkbox on the customize menu

[royal briar]

Hey i claimed the intro to stormwreck isle quickplay adventure pack today and the map hasn't appeared in my quickplay maps section.

[dapper gazelle]

Have you synced entitlements yet? See below.

Has it been at least 15 minutes since the acquisition? DDB is sometimes delayed.

[loud sedge]

Account Entitlements

Account entitlements are how D&D Beyond identifies which content you can access. These are synced automatically in time, but if you're not seeing content you should have access to, visit Account > Licenses.

The Account Entitlements section at the top should ideally say "Your entitlements data is in sync!" If not, it will show a button to manually trigger the sync, after which your content should be available.

[dapper gazelle]

Clearing cache sometimes does the trick? Maybe a different browser?

The content you claimed should be showing in the table of entitlements.

Help i wanna put the charlatan background for my character but it doesn't appear

And also the Kenku race isnt there either

[royal briar]

Got it thank you

[dense viper]

Do you own the source books for those items on DnD Beyond?

[dapper gazelle]

For missing content, you will want to check the following...

[loud sedge]

Missing Content?

If you can’t access a book or find an available character option, here’s some important things to check:

1. Are your Account Entitlements in sync? If not, you’ll see a button to let you manually trigger a sync.
2. Did you purchase the book yourself, or is it shared with you through one of your campaigns?

• If you purchased it, is it listed under Current Product Licenses?
• If it’s shared with you, is this character assigned to the campaign that’s sharing it?

3. Do you have the right checkboxes enabled in your character settings? The checkboxes at the top under “Sources” and “Partnered Content” control which options are available for your character. If in doubt, check them all.

• Are you using the right class? There are two versions of each core class: the 2024 one under "Core Rules" and the 2014 one under "2014 Core Rules". Options available for one might not be available for the other. For example, some options for Cleric (the 2024 class) might not be available for Cleric (the 2014 class) and vice versa.

[tardy hound]

Ohhh i have to buy the book

Alright that explains everything

Well thanks for the help

[dense viper]

Either that or be in a campaign where its shared with you

[tardy hound]

I see

[dapper gazelle]

Just make sure to buy digital (or both) if you want it in Beyond.

[tardy hound]

Alright

[dapper gazelle]

Physical copies do not give you digital access.

[tardy hound]

Okay

[stiff belfry]

it would be so nice if the books had codes in them for dnd beyond i’m not spending 500 pounds on books just so i can access them slightly more conveniently

[dapper gazelle]

It is a dream I think many of us share. The closest we come these days is DDB basically charging 10 more dollars per book for it.

[stiff belfry]

… absurd that a digital copy costs more given that that’s not true for actual books

[edgy oriole]

I think you misunderstood what they meant. You can buy a physical + digital bundle which is the cost of the physical book + $10.00 for the digital book. Also someone has to get that content put into a digital appropriate format and pay for the servers and other indirect to host and provide that content...

So there are costs even for digitial content.

While it would be lovely if D&D could do a "buy physical, get digital access" without having to sell a separate digital SKU, that would require a lot of work to get LFGs, book stores, any resellers really, onto a point of sale system that could handle that in an appropriate and secure way. Also books would have to be shrinkwrapped to prevent the digital code for digital access from being pirated....

That said, I agree it would be wonderful. I just know there's a lot of stuff that would have to happen to make it possible from a business and operational perspective.

[loud drift]

I'm getting an internal server error when trying to create a copy of a subclass to see how resistance is added. While I wait for customer support to address my ticket, does anyone here happen to know how to add resistance as a subclass feature?

[dense viper]

After you make your sibclass feature add a modifier

On base modifier chose resistance.

And right next to that should be where to pick the resistance type

If you're getting it while trying to copy a Barbarian subclass, try a different class. 2024 Barbarian subclasses are uncopyable for whatever reason right now.

I’m struggling with Beyond I just got it yesterday with a 2024 players handbook yet the Assimar isn’t available as a standard ancestry why?

It should be. Did you pick the 2024 class from Core Rules instead of the 2014 class under "2014 Core Rules"?

Did you check entitlements?

[radiant forge]

Hello. I'm having an issue with creating custom actions. I have created custom actions for my paladin's Divine Smites (PHB 2014). However, when I created my level 4+ divine smite I was unable to change the damage type, and whenever I try it just changes it back to no damage type.

[uneven lantern]

Did you create those all at the same time?

Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?

[radiant forge]

I created levels 1-3 at the same time. However, the browser suggestion did the trick. I was using Google Chrome. I switched to Edge and it worked. It even shows up on Chrome now.

Thanks!

[uneven lantern]

Might have been a browser setting or extension interfering, then.

You could try it in Chrome's Incognito Mode. If it works there, then that would confirm it.

[radiant forge]

Then it is confirmed. I tried it in incognito and it was fine. The only extension I use with DDB is AboveVTT. That must be the culprit.

[jaunty ember]

Hey!!! I have a character who is a cervitaur, and I would just use centaur as her race, but I’m not spending 30 bucks just to use one race. Is there a way to homebrew it? If so, how? I’ve tried researching it and I get very lost

If this isnt the right spot or if im asking wrong tell me i am very new

[uneven lantern]

You can create a homebrew species here:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/homebrew/creations/create-species

[devout ravine]

Is there a homebrewing way to increase your attunement slots?

[uneven lantern]

You can use a Modifier.

• Type: Set
• Subtype: Attunement Slots
• Fixed Value: (the total number of slots, from 1-6.)

So if you want to give them one extra (plus the normal 3), you’d want a Fixed Value of 4.

(FWIW, though, the 2014 DMG explicitly warns against giving extra attunement slots.)

[devout ravine]

We do one plus proficiency bonus

[devout ravine]

Is there a way short of manually changing it to have it do it at X levels

Or like as a feat?

[uneven lantern]

I would make separate feats for 4, 5, and 6 slots, and then people can swap to the higher feat when needed.

[devout ravine]

Alright I’ll figure that one out thanks

[lusty void]

Where do you go to make the modifier for the Extra attunement slots?

[uneven lantern]

After you save the feat for the first time, you should see a section called Modifiers.

[delicate gate]

hey is content sharing bugged rn?

[dire blade]

I appear to be able to access content shared with me that I don't own.

[edgy oriole]

That’s how content sharing in a campaign is supposed to work - everyone’s books gets shared with everyone else in that campaign.

[loud drift]

Are you missing content that is being shared with you?

[delicate gate]

yeah, tis just not showing up

[loud sedge]

No tag missing found.

[loud drift]

I seem to have forgotten how to get the bot to post the check list, but you'll want to make sure entitlements are in sync at https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses

It might say it's synced already, but if you see a button to sync them go ahead and click it as that sometimes helps

You'll also want to make sure that someone with a master tier subscription is in the campaign and has turned on content sharing, and that the character being worked on is in that campaign

Hello! I just purchased Fizban's Treasury of Dragons on DDB exclusively so I could make a Gem Dragonborn character for a game. However, even though I purchased the content, I'm not seeing it as an option i the character creation. What's going on?

[uneven lantern]

I’d recommend checking the first three items in that list a few messages up.

If you just barely bought it, then it’s likely that your entitlements haven’t synced yet.

It happens on its own in time, but the link above can let you fast-track it.

[barren garnet]

Thank you! I think this was it. I cleared my cache and it popped up!

[elfin python]

Is something going on with the app? Been trying to open my char sheets waited 10-15 minutes and it won't leave the loading screen

[dapper gazelle]

It's probably a longshot but have you checked if you can connect to https://dndbeyond.com . I.e., rare chance it is just a connectivity issue.

[elfin python]

Let's me

Last time it done this the app was like that for a couple months

[dapper gazelle]

Wow, even cache issues aren't usually that long.

Do you use a VPN? If so, is it possible to just do a quick test without it? My work VPN is notorious for really slowing things down and certain things don't work at all with it connected.

Nothing else comes to mind. One of the WotC people should be around soon and would comment if they have any suggestions.

[naive lodge]

ISPs, bad install, bad download. Bad device. No clue exactly.

[mental nimbus]

Having trouble on dndbeyond apps for android devices. When trying to filter for "monsters " under the listing's section I'm continually getting a "We couldn’t load any listings".

It's across Samsung and Google devices, and even closing the app and reopening will not clear it unfortunately.

[naive lodge]

First, have you actually downloaded any of the sources? If not, that would be the issue. If you have, can you force stop the app, clear the cache, and try again?

[mental nimbus]

I have nearly all sources on dndbeyond downloaded to both devices.

I can close the apps, and they all work normally until I go to listing's and select monsters.

I have also made sure they are updated to the latest versions

[naive lodge]

Clearing the cache is one of the required steps.

[mental nimbus]

How do I do that for an app?

Sorry that's not one I know for app, but I do for websites

[naive lodge]

Long tap, there should be like an i in a circle in the top right of that, and in there under storage. (At least on my Samsung phone).

[mental nimbus]

Just googling it!

Found it on pixel, unfortunately stillno luck.

Hmm, will try to uninstall it and try again

[naive lodge]

Can you confirm your version information. If you tap on your pfp in the app and choose support information you get something like

system_version: android 35
device_model: SM-S928U1
manufacturer: samsung
language: en
user_id: 100088681```

[mental nimbus]

Just reinstalling it

Thanks for your help. So far uninstall and installing looks to have fixed it. No idea what had happened but it looks fixed.

Appreciate your time.

[naive lodge]

Yep, that's why that's a step. Usually clear cache > verify version > reinstall.

[orchid merlin]

Hey im having an issue accessing a specific subclass i just purchased through the Xanathar's guide to everything book. Looking at Licenses it says all my entitlements are in sync and that i have my book as purchased, however looking at the character builder page, the book isn't being listed under either sources or partnered content, i tried looking at the link sent above, but i keep on being told that my account is in sync, any help?

is there a secondary book or product i need to buy in order to have the ability to add specific subclasses to character?

[dense viper]

Have you turned on the expanded rules?

[orchid merlin]

yes i have that enabled

[odd scarab]

Can I submit a report thingy here? Idk how to do it on the website. I'm in a game rn and everyone who uses 'right click to select adv or dis' is experiencing the roll as adding together instead of keeping the higher or lower roll, its very odd. but using Shift/Ctrl does bypass the issue.

[dense viper]

If possible can you share a screenshot of what you are seeing?

There is a possibility that a web extension may be getting in the way

[dense viper]

So to confirm.

Xanathar's does show up under on your product license page.

Your entitlements are in sync.

And you have the Expanded rules turned on?

If all that is true you may need to contact support.

i believe so, im super new to the website, so there is a chance that i have a setting wrong somehwhere. im not sure if i cant send screenshots here yet, do you mind if i dm u screenshots of what my screenshows so u can proof read it?

[dapper gazelle]

Note that your newly purchased book won't be listed on the Home page of the character creator. To see it, you either have to look for the Specific character options or check in Sources from the DDB homepage or in the app if you just want to read the book.

[dense viper]

You should be able to send screenshots here

[dense viper]

You should be able to see it.

What subclass are you trying to pick?

FYI all the 2024 classes get a subclass at level 3

[dapper gazelle]

Can you see this page?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/xgte/introduction

[odd scarab]

We do use the beyond20 plugin ,so maybe its an issue on their end?

[orchid merlin]

im looking for the Gloom Stalker subclass for ranger, and looking at the level three subclasses available, i only see these

[orchid merlin]

yes, i have full access to the book i believe

im able to scroll through, even read over the section of the ranger subclasses

[dire blade]

Do you have legacy enabled?

The gloom stalker from XGtE is legacy because of it being reprinted in the PHB24.

[dapper gazelle]

I think you picked a 2024 class. Switch to the 2014 Ranger.

[orchid merlin]

ill try that rn

one moment

[dapper gazelle]

Gloom Stalker was replaced in 2024 and it is probably skipping the 2024 version.

[dense viper]

Try disabling it to see if it still happens. If it does you will have to contact the developer of that web extension.

[orchid merlin]

yes, i have that one enabled aswell

[dire blade]

Yeah, Gloom Stalker from XGtE is only available for 2014 Rangers, just checked.

If you want it for 2024 Rangers you need the PHB24.

Or you can homebrew it.

[dapper gazelle]

The 2014 Core Rules Ranger should fix the problem.

It appears below the Core Rules classes so you have to scroll down past them. Make sure you remove all class levels in the Core Rules version.

[orchid merlin]

ok yes this one did it, but with what Rising Dusk brought up

would that mean this character is "outdated"? would i want to buy the PHB24 to be able to participate in a campaign

[dapper gazelle]

Depends on your DM.

But generally, New books from WotC will likely be only designed for 2024.

[orchid merlin]

right, so its better just to have it than not then? i guess ill have to bite the bullet then, huh lol

[dapper gazelle]

We are sort of in a transition now where there are still a lot of 2014 games.

I couldn't say. I play AL which is entirely 2024 so I just switched but it really does depend on what your DM uses.

I do like the 2024 rules better.

[orchid merlin]

i just bought the second book then lol, thank yall for the help 🫡

[undone minnow]

Hi all is there a way to add more spell from a selected spell list with a feat? (I want to get access to the wizard spell list and select whatever spell I want but it only shows the first spell I select, no matter what I do the 2nd spell I select doesn't show.) For an example I have picked wish as my first spell and time stop as my second. I can only see wish

[random garnet]

Is it possible to choose the ASI that isn't restricted by the background in 2024? (Without homebrew or overriding the ability scores)

[uneven lantern]

Do you mean if a background offers INT, WIS, or CHA, can you choose CON?

If so, then I’m afraid not.

[uneven lantern]

Should be doable. How did you set up these spells, specifically?

[dapper gazelle]

The closest one gets is Creating a Custom Background from the DMG, but that is a rule that is only for the DM and is more creating a new background, not modifying an existing one.
-# This differs from the PH 2014 rule for Customizing because the 2014 rule was both in the hands of players (even if it required DM allowance) and it changed existing backgrounds instead of making new ones.

DDB is thus not likely to support adjusting the ASI for 2024 characters.

[undone minnow]

i created a Feat that on the spell section has the entire spell list, with the unlimited tag checked.

On the sheet i have the feat and can select multiple spell, but only the 1st one get showed on the feat and on the spell section of my sheet

[undone minnow]

this is how i made the feat (spell section with the wizard class and infinite, in the pg sheet i have multiple spell selected but i only get the first one) i think it's a bug at this point

[frigid tree]

same here

[uneven lantern]

Looks like 2014 Ritual Caster is having the same issue, so it seems like that’s a bug.

I’ll flag it with the devs.

[ruby bobcat]

Apologies if this has been answered a million times, but does anyone know how to create a weapon that uses Charisma as its attack stat? I have tried several times and it seems like the option is there, but it just doesn't seem to work.

[frigid tree]

i think you can't but i might be mistaken, i can check if you give me like 5 minutes

[undone minnow]

okay perfect thanks, can you please let us know when the issue will get fixed eventually?

[frigid tree]

seems like you can't the best solution is to add a feature that add an action

[dapper gazelle]

If you are specifically trying to do it as a Hexblade, there is a Hex Weapon and Pact Weapon tickbox that will do it for that specific weapon.
-# screenshot of it on Android app below

[nimble oracle]

Bought a book last night (wildemount) on dndbeyond for a new player to get a subclass. It didn't show up on the dropdown even after double checking content management was enabled and the book was shared

[dapper gazelle]

Is that character specifically in the campaign?

[undone minnow]

EDIT : okay i was wrong if you press f5 after you put your spells you get them, but if you change them you'll have to refresh the page again... (idk why this happens i guess spaghetti code doing spaghetti things) everytime you change something you'll need to refresh (welp better than nothing)

[dapper gazelle]

Did you check the Home screen that Critical Role is ticked under Sources?

[nimble oracle]

Yes thanks. Actually just used search in here - I think maybe they chose 2024 wizard*!

And looking for the 2014 subclass

[dapper gazelle]

That would do it!

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, the subclasses from that book are currently supported only on the 2014 classes.

As a workaround, you could make a homebrew copy of the class to see how it was set up, then rebuild it as a 2024 subclass.

[verbal creek]

You can find a custom 2024 background thing in the homebrew section.

[uneven lantern]

I'd encourage building one yourself instead, though.

Because then you can make copies and adjust it each time you want a new background.

Rather than being stuck with the generic background name and description found in someone else's homebrew.

[verbal creek]

On the other hand, it's a lot easier than making countless variants of a background.

[random turtle]

If i'm buying the welcome to the hellfire club on the non-us website does that include the digital download on D&D beyond?

[uneven lantern]

All purchases on dndstore.wizards.com include both the physical and digital copies.

(If you want just digital, you can order on DDB directly. If you want just physical, you can order from any local retailer.)

[random turtle]

Ok cool, I'm just not reading the words D&D Beyond is all

Yeah so I'm wanting the combo

https://dndstore.wizards.com/uk/product/1246481/welcome-to-the-hellfire-club

[uneven lantern]

"Stranger Things Welcome to the Hellfire Club Digital Adventure Pack" is the DDB version.

[random turtle]

Ok nice nice, it would just be nice if it said that I guess

[uneven lantern]

The "Upside Down Digital Dice Set" and "Upside down Digital Map and Sticker Pack" are also for use on DDB.

[random turtle]

Thanks for the help

[vivid flicker]

do you get the maps, dice and sticker with just the DDB pre order? Or does it have to be the full bundle to get that?

[uneven lantern]

Those are only available with the purchase of the Ultimate Bundle (either before or after release).

There are no preorder bonuses for this one, I'm afraid.

[kind scroll]

I messed up…

I have a question?

My dragon character have 8 level one spells and 6 level 2 spells. I did this on the website. Should I have that much?

She is level 5 since I was messing around with levels on character building section.

[uneven lantern]

The max number would largely depend on the character themself, but I'd trust the site to not let you exceed your limit.

[kind scroll]

I will get screenshots of it.

[uneven lantern]

A level 5 ranger using the 2024 rules always has Hunter's Mark prepared and can prepare six more spells of their choice.

The Fey Wanderer subclass gives two more that are always prepared: Charm Person and Misty Step.

So what you've got there all checks out.

[nimble oracle]

Thanks for the advice on the subclass workaround! Gonna have a go this evening 🙂

[uneven lantern]

It should be pretty easy, if a little tedious.

Probably 5–10 minutes of work on average.

[spare sorrel]

How do I tell if I access to something because I actually own it, or because its being shared with me?

[uneven lantern]

The easiest way would be to check the app.

Any books that say “Shared with me” are ones you have access to but haven’t purchased yourself.

[daring stump]

Im trying to get my homebrew subclass for paladin added to DDB and im trying to figure out the coding part so everything is done on the character sheet, would someone be willing to talk me through that?

[uneven lantern]

What have you got so far?

Where exactly are you stuck?

[dapper gazelle]

If you don't have the app, this page will get you halfway there as the ones narked In Library are owned by you. Everything else you have access to is then by definition shared with you.

https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources

[uneven lantern]

[spare sorrel]

Odd. Was SJA given away for free at some point? Because I never bought it Lol

[ornate summit]

In the market place, why are both the digital and physical versions of the 2024 phb $30, but the bundle is $60 and has (what is implied to be the original price) $80 struck through?

I thought the bundles were supposed to let you save money

Wait never mind

The website was glitching and had the physical version be $30 not $50, it’s fixed now

[dapper gazelle]

I guess you must have somewhere along the way if it's showing In Library. Someone might have gifted it to you.

[daring stump]

Alright so im trying to add some things to my homebrew subclass of paladin and im just trying to get the coding right for some of this. I was able to get the Channel Divinity fixed, I had the Discreption in the Multiclass area by mistake. But is there a way to get it to show on your character sheet without having to expand the Channel Divinity by clicking on it?

When I click it open it gives me the option but is there a way to make it show up under features with the full text under it

[uneven lantern]

Whatever you put in the feature’s Snippet field will be displayed there.

Seems like you’ve got that field empty at the moment.

Since you’ve already assigned the subclass to a character, though, note that homebrew edits can sometimes take up to 15 minutes to appear on your sheet.

[daring stump]

Thank you! I didnt know it had to be in Snippet and now it works perfectly! Now to figure out how to do the modifiers for this one:

You gain proficiency in Medicine (or another skill of your choice if you already have it).
When you make a Medicine check, you may use Charisma instead of Wisdom.
Additionally, you can choose to double your proficiency bonus on Medicine checks if you are not already gaining such a benefit from another feature.

Though now I dont see a way to have the Square for Channel Divinity

[uneven lantern]

The modifiers you’ve got there should work for the proficiency bonus.

If desired, you could combine those into a single modifier with Type: Twice Proficiency, Subtype: Medicine instead.

You won’t be able to have it automatically use CHA for that skill, but you can customize that on the sheet itself.

Just click on Medicine, then open the Customize section in the sidebar.

There’s an option there called something like Replace Ability that you can use.

As for letting them choose an alternative skill if they already have Medicine, that’s doable but a little more complex.

I wouldn’t bother if it’s just for your own campaign, but it would be a nice touch if you’re looking to publish this for the global community.

And for Channel Divinity, you’ll want to add an Action to that feature. Make sure to give it a Reset Type. Then after you save, you’ll see a Limited Use section at the bottom.

Very odd issue to have, but I keep trying to attune to a Robe of Eyes on my character sheet and every time I re open the sheet it automatically removes attunement. I have no idea what bug could be causing this.

[loud drift]

is it happening in both the mobile app and on the website or only in 1 location?

[gleaming sphinx]

The new Cthullu by torchlight content sends me to the market page every time I click on a spell or ability linked within it. This is when I am in the purchased content, and it doesn't recognize that I own it?

I purchased Cthulu by Torchlight as well, I am seeing the same as jedimindtricks. Also, in Maps, it states that i don't own the tokens. I have verified that my purchases are sync'ed.

Here's a screenshot showing what happens if I try to find the new book.

[proven wave]

Hello ladies, gentlemen, and others! Some of you lovely people helped me find the answer to a problem I had on D&D Beyond when creating a new race. I'm hoping that some of you will be kind enough to help me with another?
I am trying to make a custom list of skills that can be chosen from but I can't get it to work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might go about it?

[daring stump]

I was going to try too but I have 2 issues with it sadly. 1st is using a 3rd party spell (Wither and Bloom) and the other for some reason it says its too close to Spores Druid

I also added an extra level 3 feature and it doesnt seem to like that

[tame kayak]

When is this maintenance?

What timezone

Cause if it's Friday my time it's fine but 1 of our members in america and idk if it falls on when we start playing

[reef finch]

7am to 9am eastern time

July 25

[clear copper]

Idk if this is right but whenever I export a character I have [wizard cleric with a lvl of fighter] it shows me having ALL the spells for cleric and wizard even tho I don't have those spells

[loud drift]

Clerics know all their spells and would just need to mark which ones are actually prepared

So you should see all of the cleric spells on the sheet, but I'm less familiar with wizards especially if you're using the 2024 version

[maiden swift]

Wizards are also preparation casters, aren't they?

You'd probably have to pick out what actually is in their spell book though.

[daring stump]

Alright time to figure this stuff out...

[uneven lantern]

You can use Options to define your own list. Just set up each available choice (like Athletics) as its own Option, and inside you can add a Modifier that gives the appropriate proficiency for that choice.

[daring stump]

The first one is any easy fix as changing 1 spell should fix it.

[uneven lantern]

If you’re referring to the time shown in #dnd-announcements, that’s shown in whatever your local timezone happens to be.

[uneven lantern]

That’s working as intended. It includes the details for all of them so that you can easily change your prepared spells during play.

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, the first would indeed be caused by Wither and Bloom.

[daring stump]

I think imma replace it with Mind Spike.

[uneven lantern]

To publish it for the global community, you can only use spells from the Basic Rules.

If it’s just your own campaign, you can safely ignore those errors and use whatever spells you like.

The second is most commonly caused by a description that’s missing or too short.

I’d try hitting the main save button first to re-trigger the validator.

With any luck, that might clear the error.

If not, you’ll probably want to double-check all your descriptions.

[daring stump]

Could one issue be that I added an extra level 3 feature?

[uneven lantern]

Shouldn’t be.

You’d need at least one feature each at 3, 7, 15, and 20.

[daring stump]

Its fixed! Weirdly once I changed the spell everything fell in place.

[uneven lantern]

Nice!

It probably just hadn’t re-validated yet, then.

[daring stump]

Alright, it is now Published, im scared to get the feedback.

[loud drift]

To clarify something Spam said, if you're only using it in your campaign and aren't concerned with wanting the rest of the community to have access to the subclass then you don't need to publish it and can then ignore the warnings

[uneven lantern]

I’d have said that ideally you’d want to get feedback before publishing. 😅

It’s harder to adjust things afterward.

But what’s done is done.

[loud drift]

Yes, published things can't exactly be edited; but good luck with it.

[uneven lantern]

You can publish a new version, but yeah, the current version can’t be edited.

And anyone who wants the updates would need to manually switch to the new version.

[loud drift]

I think we need an easily shareable checklist for these times.

[uneven lantern]

Could be useful, yeah.

[torn crystal]

that was a bug fix gone bad. we rolled it back, and you should be able to exceed that character limit again.

[hardy thistle]

Thank you thank you thank you!

[proven wave]

Thank you. It mostly worked. I think I need to reset it and start over to add all of them at once to clear up the problem I was having.

[tame kayak]

Ok thanks

[royal portal]

bought the new cthulhu by torchlight content, entitlements are in sync, and also included in the sources. somehow i'm unable to check the new subclasses on this supplement in the character creator. anyone else having the same issue?

[maiden swift]

If you're checking on existing characters, you might need to turn on content from this source on one of the first few pages.

New characters have it all checked by default but old ones don't.

[royal portal]

Trying to create a new character and it's enabled. Still unable to see the new subclasses.

[maiden swift]

Ahh, okay. Just making sure, since once or twice that's been to solution for me to a similar issue.

[royal portal]

Submitted a support ticket.

[dapper gazelle]

If you haven't already tried a 2014 class if you are using 2024 or a 2024 class of using 2014. A number of these subclass type things only work with one or the other.

[royal portal]

Tried using 2014 and 2024 classes.

[dapper gazelle]

Dang. Ah well, was hoping it might save you having to wait on support. Hope they can fix it for you.

[uneven lantern]

Seems like a broader issue. I’ve seen quite a few similar reports.

[hoary forge]

is there a way to get the specific statblock for your chosen steed on a paladin find steed on a ddb sheet?

[uneven lantern]

It’s not available by default since the stats ultimately depend on the spell level.

But you could create it as a homebrew monster using the stats for your preferred level, and then add it to your sheet under Extras.

[left oasis]

Just bought the Cthulhu book, synced entitlements, can see the content of the book if I go read it through the Sources section, but can't look up anything through the Game Rules section. Anything I could do to make the issue stop?

[heavy nest]

There have been a few issues reported on that book, according to spamandtuna they have been reported.

[acoustic ocean]

Yeah, some of the spells don’t even specify what type of AoE they are.
Here’s a example
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/813650612360970251/1398094358506639491/IMG_5016.png?ex=68841c56&is=6882cad6&hm=cb91a2ac210e34c3ad7933f4ccb89713331fd0169de549e582ba136c250bc634&

[torn crystal]

Reminder for the channel: D&D Beyond has maintenance today, starting soon. Check #dnd-announcements for more info!

[royal portal]

I hoped the maintenance would have resolved the issues with the Cthulhu book. It didn’t. Seriously bummed. What is the use of buying and having this content if I’m unable to use it?

[uneven lantern]

The devs are looking into it as we speak.

[uneven lantern]

I've been told the Cthulhu access issues should be fixed. You may want to check your entitlements again to be safe, but please let me know if you're still having any trouble.
@gleaming sphinx@heavy nest@royal portal@left oasis@whole ledge

[spare elm]

I still can’t even see the Cthulhu book in the list of books on iOS

[uneven lantern]

I see it in mine.

Have you tried force-closing and restarting the app?

That should get it to load the latest book list.

[whole ledge]

Well, I can now see and click on the spells and items when I hover over them, so it seems it's working so far. Gotta check the character editor

[royal portal]

The Character Builder appears to include the subclases now. Will do further testing. Thanks!

[uneven lantern]

Thank you both! I'll let the devs know.

[royal portal]

@whole ledge I definitely know where that nick came from. 😄 No Te Duermas!

[robust jungle]

I'm trying to homebrew the celestial Patron from scratch but idk how to implement the 3rd lvl feature Healing Light with it's uses equal to the warlock's level and also it's bonus action dice equal to its cha mod

[spare elm]

My apologies, it’s showing in iOS, but not in iPadOS

[uneven lantern]

Even after force closing and restarting the app?

Are your entitlements in sync?

?tag ddb entitlements

[loud sedge]

Account Entitlements

Account entitlements are how D&D Beyond identifies which content you can access. These are synced automatically in time, but if you're not seeing content you should have access to, visit Account > Licenses.

The Account Entitlements section at the top should ideally say "Your entitlements data is in sync!" If not, it will show a button to manually trigger the sync, after which your content should be available.

[spare elm]

I have restarted, force closed the app, and checked for updates

To be clear, I have not purchased, was going to buy in the app. Is that my issue, if so I’ll buy it on the web store after today’s game

[uneven lantern]

I would expect it to show in the app regardless. 🤔

[spare elm]

Hmm, yeh, I have tried scrolling, searching, and all. It’s not there on either of my iPads. One is iPadOS 26, so it’s not version specific either

[uneven lantern]

To add a Limited Use, you'll need to first add an Action to your class feature and give it a Reset Type. After you save, you'll see a Limited Use section at the bottom.

[uneven lantern]

In this case, you'll want to start with a Fixed Value of 4 at level 3 (or 2 at level 1 if you're using the old Warlock).

And then you'll need to add another entry at each level where that Fixed Value should change.

Which regrettably in this case is every level...

[heavy nest]

I verified Cthulhu by Torchlight tokens are now available in Maps. Thank you.

[robust jungle]

I see, thx.

[spare elm]

It’s not showing in the list of all books on my MacBook app either. I have a game in a few minutes, and no one is using the book, so I’ll check back in 5 hours or so as it’s not immediate, but I’d like to be able to see it in the app before I buy it

[loud drift]

I can confirm that I'm still not seeing it listed in the android app either, even went into the phone settings to force stop the app

[robust jungle]

So every level it's a +1 right?

[uneven lantern]

The number of dice in the pool equals 1 plus your Warlock level.

So at level 3, you’d put 4.

At level 4, you’d put 5.

And so on

[robust jungle]

K thx

[left oasis]

Some things are different, although I do not know everything that is changed, I know that Artillerist can use a firearm for their Arcane Firearm feature for example. That is at least what's written in the preview on the marketplace page for the book (It's amongst the picture, you got to scroll to get to it)

[verbal creek]

Generally, a martial ranged weapon.

[carmine perch]

Hey, my account was banned from any online purchases due to a misunderstanding concerning the payment of my subscription. Does anybody know how I can fix this?

[dense viper]

Anything dealing with payment would have to be handled by the support team.

[uneven lantern]

@whole ledge I've been told the sorcerer/wizard issues should be fixed as well. Any chance you could confirm?

[spare elm]

Can confirm with 5 people on 4 different iPads, and 2 different MacBooks, one android phone, and one iPhone, none of us could find the new Cthulhu book at my session.

[naive lodge]

It is the first entry for me. I can recommend ensuring you are fully updated and attempting to clear the cache.

[uneven lantern]

None of you have purchased the book, correct? Nor you, @loud drift?

[spare elm]

Had the one guy with an android clear cache, force stop, and reload, still nothing. Force stopped on all of the Apple devices, restarted and still nothing showing. It’s not showing for any of us here.

None of us have purchased the book

[loud drift]

Correct, I have not.

[uneven lantern]

Thank you both. I'll bump this up to the devs.

[spare elm]

Thanks

[loud drift]

It has so many weird issues, I hope they're able to get it all worked out because of how maddening it must be on their end. Ironically.

[uneven lantern]

What other issues are you seeing?

[loud drift]

The new subclasses being listed as individual classes

[uneven lantern]

Ah yeah. The devs are looking at that one now, I think.

[whole ledge]

confirmed working now. Thanks for the help!

[dapper gazelle]

I didn't have it at first either. To see it, i had to force stop.

To replicate what i did, do all of the following:

• Close the app by swiping it closed
• go to settings in the phone
• pick Apps
• pick D&D Beyond
• There should be an option called Force Stop in the bottom right corner
• hit that
• if it ran correctly, it will likely grey out
• Start the App for D&D Beyond. The book should now be right at the top of your books list (the far left tab at the bottom).

That's all I did and it now appears. All in Andoid App.

[loud drift]

Unfortunately I have tried those steps plus clearing the apps cache multiple times to no avail

[spare elm]

We tried all of that on android, plus the equivalent on iOS, needed to restart, and nothing changed

[uneven lantern]

You have purchased the book, though, correct?

[dapper gazelle]

I have not. People have just been indicating they could not even see it on the list (which you said we should).

I too did not have the book listed. Once I did those things, I then had it as you had indicated.

[uneven lantern]

Well there goes that theory, then.

Thanks, though!

[loud drift]

Devs are about to take psychic damage

[bronze bough]

Hey does anyone know why dnd beyond is giving me a 403 forbidden thing

[dapper gazelle]

Try a different browser or device and/or if you can. You could also try disabling security software, even if momentarily. Try connecting without a VPN if you use one. Maybe safe mode (or equivalent) in your browser? (the page is loading for me so unless it's a regional outage, the site doesn't seem to be down)

[bronze bough]

Well for some reason it works on my other computer and I don't have a vpn on and I'm using the same browser on my other computer so apart from maybe the security software on my computer or maybe a regional outage I don't what the issue could be

Also I had no idea regional outages were even a thing

[dapper gazelle]

They shouldn't happen but it's a more general internet thing. Sometimes the routing in the internet goes haywire and the pathing fails. Similarly, sometimes ISPs just have similar issues.

If the problem is on the computer, have you tried in the equivalent of safe mode or with all your plugins / extensions disabled? If one is acting up, it could interfere depending on what it does.

Another browser on the computer, even if just to see if https://dndbeyond.com works can help determine if it is any connection on the computer or something specific in the browser.

[thorny drift]

Player cant find gunslinger class in character creation. I have shared content on, and I've gone in and added the class to their character. They can't see any subclasses or anything to choose from.

[dense viper]

Have them make sure that the correct 3rd party content is turned on and that their entitlements are in sync

The Cthulhu book just showed up for me on iPadOS. Thanks 😊

Oh, it’s showing as currently unavailable, hmm

[robust jungle]

Does anyone have this sort of problem with feats that involves with a modifier?
When i tried to homebrew fey touched 2024 and when i tried to add the ability increase it doesn't show me add modifier.

[dense viper]

Have you hit the save button once? The add modifier option only shows up after you have hit save at least once

[robust jungle]

Yes I did

[uneven lantern]

If you’re trying to add it inside an Option, that’s not possible with a homebrew feat.

If the goal is to let them choose a spellcasting ability, I would create a separate feat for each ability.

[ember cairn]

where do you see a player's background?

[fading bramble]

assuming in the same campaign,

if youre not in teh same campaign, DDB doesnt show that for some reason

[severe sonnet]

Evening, Anyone finding creating a homebrew species just 404's every time?

[hybrid nova]

Actually, I've found that even in the same campaign, only the GM and the player can see the background. Other players cannot.

[robust jungle]

Just needed a existing feature as it's base

[blazing locust]

when I try and leave this campaign with this character for some reason the subclass bugs out and doesnt give me the prepared spell list from it, anyone know how to fix it?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/149910319

[uneven lantern]

Have you purchased Valda’s Spire of Secrets: Player Pack?

[blazing locust]

No, but that shouldn't matter since with other subclasses which I dont have the book to it just shows the spell list on the character

[uneven lantern]

Other subclasses such as…?

[blazing locust]

great old one, fiend, celestial, archfey

for example I have this great old one warlock

https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/144357604

I do not own the phb, it is not in any sort of campaign, yet it allows me to keep the spells

neevermind, just found out the problem while looking at my aberrant mind sorcerer, for some reason dndbeyond removes the always prepared spells from your list if you do not own the book associated with the spell, even though it does allow you to keep spells you manually prepare

[hot flume]

moderators, is there a maintenence for D&D beyond going on today? because when i try to select tough as a chosen feat for my homebrew i get this message:
Whoops! We rolled a 1 on our API check. We're heading into town to visit the blacksmith for repairs.

Try again after a Short Rest.
what does it mean?

i sent my question as a bug

bug report that is.

[torn crystal]

There’s no maintenance happening—usually we’ll give notice about that and, depending on the kind of maintenance, the whole site will be down.

I think that message means that the site is having some difficulty pulling the info for you to reference. Homebrew is known to be a bit buggy.

[uneven lantern]

Do you get the same issue in another browser, or on another device?

[past snow]

I have a problem with Beyond App, I can't open listings for monsters. I can open listings for all other categories (spells, items, species, etc.), but whenever I try to open monsters I get a message "We couldn't load any listings". I tried reloging, but that didn't help. Any advice? Should I reinstall the app?
PS. I can view everything just fine via desktop browser.
PS2. I'm on Android.

[dapper gazelle]

Try clicking Filters in the app and clear all filters. You might have a combination that results in nothing to show.
-# I get this when I filter too aggressively.

Force Stop on Android can also help to ensure a proper download of things on Beyond's app.

To do this don't just swipe it closed. Do the following:

• swipe it closed
• Go to Android settings for your phone (cog icon from your app list)
• pick: Apps then D&D Beyond then Force Stop
• load Beyond and test

While you are there, you could also Clear Cache from the Storage section of the D&D Beyond App screen.

[past snow]

Clearing ALL data did the trick. 3GB to redownload :/
At least it works now, thanks for the help 🙂

[uneven lantern]

Hey! If you don’t mind, could you check Cthulhu by Torchlight in the Android app? Does it show “Currently Unavailable”? Does it give you the option to purchase it, or if you did already, are you able to open it?

[spare elm]

Is Cthulhu by Torchlight still showing as unavailable for anyone else?

[uneven lantern]

Devs are looking into that now.

[spare elm]

Okay, thanks!

[uneven lantern]

Should be accessible on the site, though.

[stiff rose]

Hi! I need help with a purchase. I bought the 2024 Player Handbook via the D&D Beyond app but it's not showing up under my Licences or my Order History.
When I click on the Buy option in the app it gives me the "You already own this" error but I don't have access to the book or to the options in the character creator.
I've deleted my cache and cookies, deleted and reinstalled the app, and my account states it is synced.
How do I fix this?

[uneven lantern]

Was this on iOS or Android?

On the main screen of the app, if you click your avatar in the top left, then select Restore Purchases, does that solve the issue?

[blazing tulip]

Is there a way to manual to add an attunable item to my the Attunement List /item require attunement???

[uneven lantern]

If you're asking about an existing item, you should be able to equip the item, then scroll down to the attunement section and click it there to attune.

If you're asking about a homebrew item, you'd need to first add the item to the site using the homebrew system.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/homebrew/creations/create-magic-item

[stiff rose]

Android. Which is the main screen? Library? There doesn't appear to be an option for Restore Purchases, just Update All which hasn't done anything.

[uneven lantern]

Library works, yeah.

[blazing tulip]

is this very same with "add Custom item" option i think I remembered i tried to use it to make a homebrew/custom weapon but a lot of settings i couldnt find (eg needs attunement)

[uneven lantern]

From there, you need to first click your avatar in the top left corner.

If you haven't added an avatar, it should be a big white B, I think.

[uneven lantern]

You won't be able to make an attuneable custom item directly on the sheet.

You'll need to use the homebrew system instead, linked above.

[stiff rose]

These are the options I have when I click on my avatar:

[uneven lantern]

Hmmm... 🧐

You'll probably need to contact customer support there.

I'd recommend clicking "Support Information" there in your screenshot, and including that in the message.

[blazing tulip]

thank you! I will figure the homebrew thing out!

[uneven lantern]

You should have also received a purchase confirmation email from Android. That should have a transaction number, starting with the letter A. I'd include that, too.

When you're adding it through homebrew, you should see a checkbox that says "Requires Attunement".

Once that's checked, you can also enter a value in "Attunement Description".

If the item says "Requires attunement by a bard", you'd check the box and write bard as the description.

[stiff rose]

Thanks, I'll do that. I appreciate the help 👍🏻

[dapper gazelle]

Unfortunately for that test, in the time since we last discussed, someone has shared it with me, so it says Shared with me now. I can confirm though that when it is in that state, I am able to download and upon downloading it, i can access the book.

How do I get the unarmed fighting style to show a d8? I literally have no weapons equipped. No shield. It still shows a d6

[robust jungle]

Does anyone know how to counter the weapons of wounding

[loud drift]

Make sure that you're using the 2024 monk and not the 2014 monk

[loud drift]

What do mean by counter it?

[robust jungle]

Any magic weapon that has the wounding effect

Makes the opponent unable to heal for the rest of the fight when getting hit

[loud drift]

Do you mean if you get hit with one how do you be able to heal again?

[robust jungle]

Yes

Only says short or long rest

[blazing acorn]

Hi there! I'm unable to create monsters. I've been trying to create a homebrew monster and getting a 500 Internal Server Error repeatedly. I've tried restarting from scratch and still run into the same issue. I haven't tried creating a homebrew anything else yet, so I just know that monsters don't seem to be working at the moment, at least for me.

[uneven lantern]

Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?

[dapper gazelle]

The short answer is while D&D allows you to tick things that are equipped / used / available, it actually does not have a way of knowing what is in one's hands at a specific time with the current implementation.

While theoretically if you just don't own either, it might work, it would be an unsatisfying half implemented rule so it is better that players apply it as only they know which equipment is in hand at a specific moment.

[brisk bridge]

I was able to do a super simple, quick and dirty monster in Firefox (I encountered the error in Chrome). I'm not sure I'm up for trying to redo my entire monster in Firefox, though, TBH. LOL

[dapper gazelle]

Which is also additional proof that Beyond is not a perfect implementation of RAW. Some things either are not implemented or cannot be implemented fully for whatever reasons.
-# it is still a highly useful tool. Thanks devs!

[brisk bridge]

I copy-pasted what I could after I reloaded my create monster form again in Chrome. It worked, but I also just overwrote the barebones details I used in the monster I just successfully created. I haven't tried creating a monster from scratch in Firefox with those same copied details.

I also tried resubmitting in Chrome, and it still fails with that internal server error. So maybe there's just something up with D&D Beyond's Chrome compatibility for some reason?

[blazing tulip]

Hey, I am trying out to test how to use the homebrew item on dndbeyond, if I were to make a custom longbow for example, where it follows the normal long bow normal damage, but also do +2 cold damage (so a 1d8+dex modifier+ 2 cold damage), how would i go about doing that in the create a homebrew item?

or is the (1d8+modifier) already taken into account when i made the item under "longbow"?

image attached is what i tried to do under the Modifier tab

[uneven lantern]

The more likely explanation is that there’s a browser setting or extension that’s interfering. Does it work in Chrome’s Incognito Mode?

[uneven lantern]

I’d recommend making a homebrew copy of an official weapon that adds damage. Then you can look inside and see how it was set up.

[native shoal]

It should automatically give you both options, unless they've changed things. One of my characters has the Unarmed Fighting Style, albeat through the Fighting Initiate feat, and his actions tab looks like this. Maybe try removing and re-adding the style (reload the main sheet in between to make sure it's actually changed).

[grizzled helm]

I just created another campaign in D&D Beyond and I cannot see how to turn Content Sharing on. Yes I have the proper tier, as my other 7 campaigns have it active. I do not see any place to turn it on

Ah, there we go. It appears it works with Fighting Initiate initiated through TCoE but not with 2024 core rules when someone picks it as part of a Class feature. When I make it through 2024 Fighter, doesn't seem to work.

Hopefully Spamandtuna or one of the others can pass it to the devs to fix.
-# don't want to ping them. They have enough to do. 🙂

[hybrid nova]

You can only content share with 5 campaigns.

2 of the ones that are sharing must have a different user doing the share.

[grizzled helm]

Got ya

[heavy nest]

For the Heroes of the Borderlands starter set, I have purchased the DDB Heroes of the Borderlands Digital Adventure Pack. If I buy the physical from a FLGS, is the only bonus extra content that I will miss the Keep on the Borderlands Digital Dice Set?

[uneven lantern]

I believe so.

[stark slate]

I am struggling to make a homebrew magic item for my character but I have 0 clue how to anyone got tips?

[uneven lantern]

You can create one here:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/homebrew/creations/create-magic-item

If there’s an official item that works similarly to yours, you can select it as a template to copy it.

Then you can adjust it as needed, or just see how it was set up and steal its secrets.

[pale crater]

is there a way to insert your own stickers to ddb table top?

[loud drift]

not at the moment

[pale crater]

ok thanks

[timid talon]

is there an easier way to activate rage in DND beyond?
cause now when i checked the box off i've used rage, it doesn't change anything i need to go to Features & Traits > rage > Choose level 1 option > activate rage

is there a faster way to do this?

[uneven lantern]

Not currently, no.

For 2014 Barb, people often used a homebrew magic item to add the rage bonus.

Then you'd just equip it when rage starts, and unequip when it ends.

You could still do that with 2024 barb if preferred.

[wet cradle]

I can't add existing characters to my campaign as a DM. No amount of clicking or pressing enter works. Doesn't work on the app either. I have the Master tier subscription too, so I don't have a character creation limit

[dense viper]

After selecting the character did you scroll down and click "Join with this character"? or was that not an option?

Depending on how many characters you have it can be hidden.

I wouldnt keep that video up if you dont want random people typing the join link in and joining your camping.

[wet cradle]

okay. yeah I just have a ton of characters so I forgot that was all the way down there

[timid talon]

tytyty

[muted void]

i had access to the crooked moon dark bargain with a 2014 wizard, but i tried to see if i wanted to move my character to a 2024 wizard with the same feature, but its gone from both the 2014 and 2024 versions now, unavailable. i have optional class features and Avantris Entertainment both turned on. am i doing something wrong?

[loud drift]

Do you own the book?

[dense viper]

Did you buy the Crooked Moon? or was it shared with you.
If it was shared with you is this new character in that campaign where it is shared with you?

[muted void]

it was shared with me

[muted void]

so it needs to be in that campaign?

[dense viper]

Yeah. Shared content for the character builder can only be accessed by characters in that campaign.

[fading bramble]

Trying to look at races through the general search brings me to a 404

[past jolt]

Hi, in dndbeyond for shadar-kai and many other species, it says this in the attached picture. I've read that they get a 2+1 or 1+1+1 choice of starting stats, but I don't find anywhere to add this in the character builder. Does this mean it has to be added manually?

Ability Score Increases

When determining your character’s ability scores, increase one score by 2 and increase a different score by 1, or increase three different scores by 1. Follow this rule regardless of the method you use to determine the scores, such as rolling or point buy. The “Quick Build” section for your character’s class offers suggestions on which scores to increase. You can follow those suggestions or ignore them, but you can’t raise any of your scores above 20.

https://www.dndbeyond.com/species/1026401-shadar-kai

[spare sorrel]

I seem to have a spell called "Fireball Ultimate Form" on any class I make? It won't let me delete it??

[dapper gazelle]

It should be there for 2024 rules but it is tied to backgrounds. If you have not selected a background, you will need to. You will also probably need to use a 2024 Class from Core Rules, not 2014 Core Rules. You will find the dropdown for the adjustments on the Ability Scores page.

See screenshot below from Android app. Web site has a similar interface option in the character creator.

2014, I think you find it on your Species page?!
-# sorry, I just don't use pure 2014 any more.

[hybrid nova]

This is likely a homebrew spell. If you turn off homebrew is it still there?

[spare sorrel]

How do I turn off homebrew?

Oh u mean in the character creation, LOl. Let me look

[spare sorrel]

Yes its still there

[dapper gazelle]

Have you tried creating a new blank character?

[spare sorrel]

yes

[dapper gazelle]

Are you adding any equipment or feats? Some of these things add a spell simply from having them as part of your character.

[spare sorrel]

No

[dapper gazelle]

Do you have a link to the character or screenshot so we can see anything that might be off?

[hybrid nova]

I think we'll need to see the actual page. Can you make it public and send the link?

Also, it might be attached to a homebrew species if it's appearing on every class.

[dapper gazelle]

Yeah, something is introducing that. At will and a Fireball is very unlikely to be anything other than homebrew of some sort.

[spare sorrel]

https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/150137088/4dCddh

I figured out that is has to be one of the off books I have or someonelse has. I am deleting the character. Thanks!

[uneven lantern]

It’s probably some misconfigured homebrew belonging to someone else in your campaign.

If someone listed your subclass in the spell’s “Available for Class(es)” field, then it will always be prepared for members of that subclass.

Whoever owns the spell would need to remove your subclass from that field, or remove that spell from their My Homebrew Collection.

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, if you chose a 2024 background, the rules say to ignore any increase from your species and use only the one from the background instead.

If you chose a 2014 background, that option should be available on the Abilities tab.

[past jolt]

Thanks! I think that answers it perfectly

[hybrid nova]

Out of curiosity, do we know if there's a way to make this happen with homebrew species? I haven't figured that part out yet, it just always displays the species ones. Same goes for language selection. Copying an existing species just has those features generally there, so I'm thinking there may be some hardcoded exceptions on the backend hiding those features when a '24 background is selected, etc.

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, I think they're using some dev-only options for that.

But I haven't actually tried myself, so I'm not sure.

[zealous tundra]

Dice buttons aren't working for me (noticed this yesterday)

Using Chrome on Win 11

[edgy oriole]

Are you using any browser extensions like Beyond20 or AboveVTT? These can sometimes interfere with normal DnDBeyond functionality.

Try disabling any browser extensions and see if that helps.

[uneven lantern]

In what way are they not working?

Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?

[zealous tundra]

I've disabled all extensions and nothing happens when I click a button. It works fine in the D&D Beyond app on my phone.

deleted all Chrome's site data for D&D Beyond, still the same problem.

[edgy oriole]

Any 3rd party antivirus blocking javascript functionality?

[zealous tundra]

Works in Edge.

[edgy oriole]

Ah okay.

Wonder if Chrome needs an update?

I've seen Chrome get weird when there's an update ready to install.

[zealous tundra]

Restarted Chrome, restarted Windows. No change.

Works in Chrome on my phone.

Right-clicking the dice buttons works, but selecting the "roll" option on that menu doesn't even acknowledge being clicked.

[dense viper]

Did you by chance turn off hardware acceleration on chrome?

[zealous tundra]

ah yes I did

[dense viper]

Try turning that back on and see if it works

[zealous tundra]

I knew there was a reason I always enable it after taking screenshots in Amazon Prime.

oh no, it's currently enabled.

That looks suspicious

[edgy oriole]

That looks like Chrome, for whatever reason, is making a request for a resource and getting a response from the server saying it's a bad request.

Have you tried logging out of DnDBeyond on chrome, clearing cookies/cache, and relogging back in?

[zealous tundra]

Yes

Roll dice feature in Maps shows a result...but no dice. I wonder what happens if I change the dice set.

[dense viper]

The maps tools doesnt have 3d dice yet. Its on the road map to be added

[zealous tundra]

Interesting, that worked changing from Tarrasque dice to Frostmaiden dice.

I wonder why that's only in this browser on this device though.

[dense viper]

I noticed the Tarrasque dice had a lag time on my computer before they rolled so it could be an issue with those assets

[edgy oriole]

Might be worth creating a customer service ticket

?tag ddb support

[loud sedge]

D&D Beyond customer support can be contacted at the link below. Requests are answered in the order they're received, during regular business hours. Submitting multiple requests for the same issue can result in a delayed response.
http://dndbeyond.link/SubmitTicket

[dire blade]

Are you running a script blocker of any kind? Certain dice types are more complex and require additional scripts to run when compared to others.

[zealous tundra]

Ah. Cleared Chrome's image cache and that fixed it.

[edgy oriole]

interesting

[zealous tundra]

It must have cached the dice images and those must have become somehow corrupted or invalid.

I've noticed in the last year that avatars for homebrew stuff get corrupted as well.

So I bet that's what happened. Thanks for the help!

[timid talon]

where can i change the weapon mastery of my greataxe?

[dire blade]

You can't change it. It's a property of the weapon type. You would choose a different weapon to have a different property. Maybe you mean choosing which mastery you have learned? It's done in the character settings, usually under class features but possibly under feats as well.

[timid talon]

buti mean as a barbarian, eachlong rest you can change the weapon mastery, how do i change? oir i fot it wrong

[dire blade]

Right, so that's in the character settings, as I noted above. It's the cogwheel for the character where you would normally go if you were to level up.

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, you can just go back to where you chose it the first time and choose something else.

Or you can click on Weapon Mastery in Features & Traits to change your selection there.

[hollow cradle]

Hi- I bought the digital 2024 player handbook from ddb marketplace. It’s not linking to character builder to enable the subclasses and what not. Any suggestions?

[dense viper]

If you just bough it make sure you entitlements are in sync

[hollow cradle]

Thanks. Any chance you have a dummies guide to where to do that?

[dense viper]

?tag ddb entitlements

[loud sedge]

Account Entitlements

Account entitlements are how D&D Beyond identifies which content you can access. These are synced automatically in time, but if you're not seeing content you should have access to, visit Account > Licenses.

The Account Entitlements section at the top should ideally say "Your entitlements data is in sync!" If not, it will show a button to manually trigger the sync, after which your content should be available.

Something went wrong.

[dense viper]

I was trying but it took me some time to get the spelling right

[hollow cradle]

Thanks! Confirmed they’re in sync

[uneven lantern]

Is the book listed here under Current Product Licenses?

https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/licenses

Are you using the 2024 class (like Barbarian) and not the 2014 one (like Barbarian)?

[dapper gazelle]

Note sometimes you need to hit the Sync button even if it says it is in sync.

[uneven lantern]

The button shouldn't appear if it's already in sync.

[viral cargo]

Am i wrong or does this pricing doesnt make sense ?

• forgotten realms: adventures in faerun = 33€
• forgotten realms: heros of fearun = 25 euro
• bundle = 127€ ???

[remote sinew]

i think it's because the bundle also has the asterion and the netheril books and the unannounced one but it doesnt say that

because i was going to ask the same thing

the page defo needs some work as it's very confusing

[vivid flicker]

bundle includes both physical and digital that's why

im wondering if we get our master tier discount applied to this?

[remote sinew]

there are two bundles, the ultimate one and then a digital only but it's all unclear

[heavy nest]

I don't know about a master tier discount, but so far the legendary bundle discount is only applied to the digital version of Forgotten Realms: Adventures in Faerûn

[vivid flicker]

that's what i meant sorry!

and thank you for that.. saw the discount just didnt say that's what it was for

[heavy nest]

No worries, sometimes it takes them a bit from the initial posting to set the discounts, I would guess that the Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn will get the legenary bundle discount soon.

[uneven lantern]

I've asked the team for clarification. I'll let you know what I find out.

[dire blade]

I guess it is impossible to preorder the digital expansions without the ultimate bundle. I haven't been able to find them on the Marketplace standalone.

[heavy nest]

Here is a digital bundle
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/root/DB4GTNRLM

[dire blade]

Hrm, numerically that doesn't seem right.

[heavy nest]

Forgotten Realms: Adventures in Faerûn Digital
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/category/4714000?pid=DB4714000&Digital%2FPhysical=Digital

Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn Digital
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/BB-ForgottenRealms-25/4712000?pid=DB4712000&Digital%2FPhysical=Digital

[dire blade]

It shows as $39.99 and $29.99 for the two books standalone digitally, and the legendary discount applies correctly. The 'digital bundle' is $126.93, though?

Are we saying these digital expansions are worth more than the books themselves?

[dapper gazelle]

Maybe the digital expansions are more like splatbooks than DLC.

Either way, that is a lot of faith to put in books that aren't even here yet.

[dire blade]

We just don't know anything about the expansions, so I am leery about preordering them. The FR books are pretty well explained elsewhere through normal marketing and those prices are mostly aligned with expectations.

I am surprised the digital player book is $39.99 and not $29.99, though. 🤔

[heavy nest]

Forgotten Realms Ultimate Bundle​
THE MOST EXPANSIVE FORGOTTEN REALMS RESOURCE YET​

Experience the Forgotten Realms like never before with this expansive, multi-book bundle. This timeless setting has been the backdrop for the most legendary stories in DUNGEONS & DRAGONS history — and is the perfect place to begin your extraordinary campaign.

The Ultimate Bundle includes the physical and digital versions of Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn and Forgotten Realms: Adventures in Faerûn, and the following digital exclusives: ​

• Baldur’s Gate 3 Digital Map Pack​
• Forgotten Realms Factions Digital Dice Set​​
• Astarion’s Book of Hungers: a digital expansion where players can indulge in their vampire desires with new player options, monsters, and adventure content – all shared by Astarion himself! ​​​| Release Date: November 11, 2025
• Netheril’s Fall: a digital expansion where players can explore the lost Netherese Empire in a time traveling adventure ​​​| Release Date: November 18, 2025
• A secret third digital expansion – to be revealed soon!​ ​​​| Release Date: November 25, 2025

[dire blade]

Yeah, we just don't know if they're closer to a Locathah Rising adventure size or a Vecna: Eve of Ruin adventure size hah.

Normally they'd mention the level range if they were sizable.

[heavy nest]

One of them they do list as level 1 to 3 introductory adventure, the others they simply list 50+ pick up and play adventures ( I am pretty sure they mean encounters)

[dire blade]

Those descriptions I think apply to the normal books themselves, not the digital expansions.

Yeah, actually the presentation makes it very clear those descriptions are for the books themselves. There's an extra bubble for the expansions which says... virtually nothing.

[loud drift]

Just to be clear: it's currently cheaper to get the digital+physical version of each book separately than to get the ultimate bundle, and it's cheaper to get each digital copy separately than to get the all digital bundle. This implies that the extras listed with each of the bundles have a cost that's hidden to the customer since we can't see a marketplace listing for any of the extras and they aren't listed in the cart either.

[dire blade]

According to an ENWorld article (https://www.enworld.org/threads/more-details-revealed-for-forgotten-realms-digital-expansions.714631/), it claims:

[...] currently the only way to get these three digital expansions will be through buying the "Ultimate Bundle," which has a whopping price point of $159.99 and includes both physical and digital versions of the other Forgotten Realms books.
Is that true? That seems terrible if true and alienates digital-only players.

[somber crest]

Yeah this needs to be addressed asap- it honestly seems like a major mistake. To be clear, if you buy both the digital books seperately in USD it's around 60USD, a bit less if you have a discount. However, the Digital Only Bundle- which does not say it includes ANY extras - just that the ULTIMATE BUNDLE comes with extras- is 126.93 USD. If correct, you get nothing for the extra 60+USD you pay - for nothing it seems. You pay double, for nothing.

Even if the Digital Bundle comes with the ultimate bundle digital only bonuses, it's not worth 60 USD more. Thanks @uneven lantern for asking for clarification, I hope we hear something soon. I'm usually the type to slam the preorder button when it's something like this, I love the Forgotten Realms and I love the new rules- and this has to be a mistake.

[whole ledge]

Yeah, this pricing doesn't make any sense. Buying each digital FR book separately costs a total of $70, yet the digital bundle is $127?

[uneven lantern]

The digital bundle does include those extras, which will all be available for purchase separately as well. That’s the three expansions, the dice set, and the map pack.
@viral cargo @remote sinew @dire blade @dapper gazelle @loud drift @vivid flicker @heavy nest

[whole ledge]

so it does include the extra"DLC" that the ultimate blundle does. And this "DLC" will also be sold separately? God, saying DLC on a ttrpg is so weird

[dire blade]

They're called "digital expansions." I think DLC is just something some news outlet stuck in an article lol.

[whole ledge]

well, it was game informer, which normally covers videogames

[dire blade]

Thanks for looking into that. I can preorder safely then without any FOMO.

[whole ledge]

I assume the price of the digital expansions hasn't been decided yet, but I bet it's gonna be $15-$20 each based on similar products offered in the past

[dire blade]

By the way, the legendary discount doesn't appear to be applying to the digital bundle.

[uneven lantern]

I’ve asked to see if we can get specific prices to share.

[loud drift]

The digital only bundle needs it's listing updated if that's the case as it links to the larger ultimate bundle and implies it as the way to get all those extras

[mental thorn]

The barbarian has multiple subclasses, but i have access to berserker only when attempting to see the options in character creation

[fading bramble]

Did you buy the books the other options are from?

Berserker is part of the SRD, which is the only free sub

[chrome flint]

I got maybe a dumb question - as a legendary bundle owner - why is the new preorder for the "Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn" digital not applicable for the discount - it is 1st party release and Heroes has the discount?

[heavy nest]

They have had some issues recently getting the discount set when items first gets added to the marketplace. I would give it some time, likely it will get applied.

[uneven lantern]

It shows for me.

[chrome flint]

Yep now it shows. Weird. Maybe it glitched or something. The marketplace acts weird sometimes. I moved off the original page where it had the price without legendary discount, but this one here shows Heroes at $49.99 (physical) while Adventures is listed has the digital.

Perhaps the page did not load correctly and did not update - it may have if it got put in cart. I did not do that. So it doesn't quite count as a bug. Not sure why 'starting at' is wrong in my page - but if there is an issue I guess they'll fix that display problem

the page has updated to be correct, but the "Forgotten Realms Digital Bundle" is absent even when you search for it lol

[hearty hemlock]

My players are unable to access all of my unlocked content when creating their characters. As an example my rogue wants to choose Soulknife but the option doesn't show up for her. It shows up for me when searching through the subclasses, but not even when I go to edit her character can the option for Soulknife be chosen

[chrome flint]

Assuming you have the subscription for it, but have you turned on content sharing for the campaign? Also, if your sub lapsed those get reset - you need to re-enable the content sharing.

[hearty hemlock]

I currently have master tier, and I just turned content sharing off and on again to no avail. I checked my subscription and I'm paid up

But when I check my subscription it asks me if I want to start a free trial, even though I'm logged in

[chrome flint]

Right. Next check would be to see the options in the first page of the char sheet in char builder -> make sure the content is enabled for the char sheet.

[hearty hemlock]

Every check box that can be checked, is

[chrome flint]

hmm odd. Is this 2014 Tasha or 2024?

[hearty hemlock]

guuuuuhhhhhh they picked the 1D&D rogue not the 5eeeeeeee..... sorrrrryyyyyyyyy

I appreciate your patience. You're a saint

[chrome flint]

No worries 🙂 Been down this road before lol.

[mental thorn]

I have not bought anything, they dont even list what each subclass comes from, unless im blind

[fading bramble]

In that case, you only would have the Berserker showing

[dire blade]

The digital bundle still doesn't show it, however.

[somber crest]

Yeah we still need more information on this- it's very confusing. Here's the link in case people need to see what we are talking about
https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/BB-ForgottenRealms-25/DB4GTNRLM
The price on this makes no sense because the bundle cost** more** than buying them both separately. This isn't the higher price put together- this is like buying 4 of these books instead of 2. It makes no sense. If you want to say the 60 dollars is for the extra content- that's not extra content, that's 60 dollars of content you are buying.

[loud drift]

According to Spam, who checked with higher-ups, the digital bundle comes with the extras that the ultimate bundle does which means the real issue is that the page doesn't correctly say it.

[forest moss]

lmao

[uneven lantern]

Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?

[spark cove]

The forgotten realms ultimate bundle mentions it contains this

Baldur’s Gate 3 Digital Map Pack​

Forgotten Realms Factions Digital Dice Set​​

Astarion’s Book of Hungers: a digital expansion where players can indulge in their vampire desires with new player options, monsters, and adventure content – all shared by Astarion himself!​​​ ​​​| Release Date: November 11, 2025

Netheril’s Fall: a digital expansion where players can explore the lost Netherese Empire in a time traveling adventure ​​​| Release Date: November 18, 2025

A secret third digital expansion – to be revealed soon!​ ​​​| Release Date: November 25, 2025

The Atlas of Faerûn: a digital map of the entire Faerûn continent

But the digital bundle doesn't. Does that mean if you purchase the digital bundle you'd have to buy those expansions separately? I don't really want the physical books but if I'd have to buy that content separately I might have to get the ultimate bundle.

[uneven lantern]

The digital bundle does include the first five there.

I’d assume it includes the sixth as well (at least for preorders), but I can try to get confirmation.

We’ve asked about getting that page updated with a clearer description as well.

[spark cove]

Ah thank you, I wasnt sure if it included them so thought I'd double check. Much appreciated!

[high peak]

Hello There.
I live in Poland. It is in the middle od Europe. I would like to ask how or is it work because i cant find such info by myself. I mena sometime i would like to buy some phisycal stuff or better said Ultimate bundle physical=digital but I am not sure if it is possible to ship that to Poland and if yes How much it will cost.
Please any help.

[uneven lantern]

For shipping outside the US, you’ll want to purchase it on https://dndstore.wizards.com instead.

Everything there comes with a digital code to unlock the book on D&D Beyond.

[true belfry]

Hi, I am from Canada and I do not see the Ultimate bundle physical + digital on https://dndstore.wizards.com/. Does it mean this the Ultimate Bundle is not available outside of the U.S?

[uneven lantern]

There was a slight delay in getting it added to that site, but it is coming!

[mental thorn]

what books must i buy to get extra subclasses for barbarian?

[loud drift]

The Legendary Bundle discount is now showing correctly for this.

[loud drift]

If you're using the 2014 version of the class then the main 1st party books for it are the 2014 Player's Handbook, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, and Xanathar's Guide to Everything. There might be a few others that I'm forgetting about.

If you're playing the 2024 version then the new Player's Handbook, with Tasha's and Xanathar's offering a few extra options each.

[dire blade]

Great. Assuming we actually get the costs of each of the digital expansions today, we may find out if the bundle is actually discounted or not haha.

[uneven lantern]

I'm still not seeing it on the digital bundle...

But maybe that's a caching issue on my end.

[dire blade]

Oh, maybe I was excited too soon. I’m not at my PC.

[loud drift]

If only there were a mod available to help assist Spam with troubleshooting his caching issue

[dire blade]

You know what's weird? If I navigate to the page from your link, it doesn't show. If I navigate to the digital bundle from the ultimate bundle's page, it does show.

Both pages appear to correctly register me as logged in (was my first thought too).

[uneven lantern]

VERY weird. I've passed that on the devs, though. Thanks!

[sage compass]

Hello is Forgotten Realms Ultimate Bundle meant to be available outside the US? when I click the link for outside US orders its not there

sorry didn't see it when i first read up and I see someone else asked and its been answered

[uneven lantern]

Yeah, coming soon!

[vivid flicker]

so if i got the ultimate bundle but the digital only bundle comes with everything else, can i request a refund and order the digital only?

sorry i didn't know since lately ultimate bundles are the only ones with 100% of the extras

maybe i'm still reading it wrong. tried to catch up to the rest of the posts above to see - again my apologies if this was cleared up and i just missed it.

[uneven lantern]

No, that's accurate.

The digital bundle includes all the items the ultimate bundle does, except the physical books.

It seems like you only get a discount (of $76) with the ultimate bundle.

But you'd have to discuss the possibility of an exchange or refund with customer support.

[vivid flicker]

so then ultimate (price per item wise) would still be cheaper?

[uneven lantern]

?tag ddb support

[loud sedge]

D&D Beyond customer support can be contacted at the link below. Requests are answered in the order they're received, during regular business hours. Submitting multiple requests for the same issue can result in a delayed response.
http://dndbeyond.link/SubmitTicket

[uneven lantern]

I believe so.

The Ultimate Bundle at $160 says you save $76, putting it at a total value of $236. If you then subtract the $110 cost of the physical books, you’d get the $126 cost of the digital bundle.

[vivid flicker]

right so 160-126 = $34 for two physical books plus shipping of course

all good i'll leave it as is.. i think the support team will have many emails on this.. it's not a huge deal for me

[uneven lantern]

It's free shipping on orders over... $65, I think.

[vivid flicker]

and happy to support

oh sweet

[true belfry]

Do we konw if there will be Alternate Cover for the Forgotten Realms Physical books?

[loud drift]

there are, they have been shown at GenCon and some websites have shared images. IIRC EnWorld had a pretty clear picture.

[uneven lantern]

Not on DDB, at least.

[loud drift]

alt covers do end up being FLGS and reseller exclusive

[true belfry]

Well, thats great, my get the books at my FLGS then

Sharing the post here https://www.enworld.org/threads/alternate-covers-of-upcoming-forgotten-realms-books-revealed.714617/

[dire blade]

Phew, those are good. Glad the digital bundle exists so I can still consider getting the alt covers later.

[true belfry]

My plan as well, I much prefer the aesthetic of the alt. cover

[little plume]

Hi! So I recently purchased the players handbook online on ddb but for my digital campaign with my friends, I'm not gonna be dm. Is there a way for them to still create characters with the things in the players handbook even though it's on my account?

[dense viper]

If someone in the campaign has a Master Tier sub they can turn on content sharing that will allow everyone in that campaign to use the books for character creation that are owned by other player in the campaign
