The only thing I haven't tried on my end is uninstalling and reinstalling the app and I hate doing that because I always lose my bookmarked lists and then I can never quite make them again

#

Ok so I may just be an idiot but I haven't had this happen before... I had to go in and reactivate all of my characters manually

Any chance you had to relogin recently? Sometimes if you click on the wrong link on the login page, you'll end up with blank stuff even if you otherwise typed in the correct e-mail. E.g., when I logged on with a Gmail to Twitch instead of through Gmail, I don't get those characters or any of their owned books. Or that's what it used to do for me. Haven't tried it in a while. But otherwise, I think you have to wait on support.

Question, if I wanted to homebrew a feat that added one or more spells to a characters spell list (similar to the dragonmark feats) how would I do that? I know how to do it with a background, but can't figure it out with feats.

uneven lantern
#

You’d need a background, species, or subclass.

Tragic

So I built a homebrew feat for Warrior of Shadow Monk, yet shows up as unavailable because, apparently, the Warrior of Shadow Monk I built it for isn't a Warrior of Shadow Monk? 🤔🤔

dire blade
#

Feats aren't locked to 5e or 5.5e by default. Are you applying some kind of prerequisite to it? It's possible if you tried to set it up that way that you could have used the wrong edition for your prerequisite. My recommendation here, though, would be to just remove the prerequisite and add it to your character when appropriate for your needs.

ivory oriole
#

Seems broken to me.

dire blade
#

Are you working with the Warrior of Shadow subclass for classMonk or the Way of Shadow subclass for class2014Monk ?

#

It's possible it's broken, just want to check that first.

ivory oriole
#

Both are 100% Warrior of Shadow.

dire blade
#

I've known prerequisites to misbehave and haven't tested this one specifically, so it may be broken. I know the developers intend to revisit and improve/fix homebrew once the new character builder is finished, so hopefully things like this are tackled then.

#

Sorry if this is not the right place to ask this question, if so please tell me where to.
I am a Master Tier DM with Shared Content already on 5 parallel campaigns (due to some of them beeing played once a month, I managed to fill all my slots for Shared Content).
I know that if I want to share content with a sixth campaign (in order to give all my player more options to build their characters) I have to disable it on one of my other ones.
Is there a way (paying some fee) to get more "Shared Content" slots?

naive lodge
#

There is not.

uneven lantern
#

And once it’s active, everyone’s books get shared, including yours.

blissful tundra
#

oh, I see, so the workaround could be to have one other MasterTier player in the campaign

Just put a 1 there.

I'm getting:

This Subclass cannot be shared with the community for the following reasons:
This homebrew Subclass does not have the necessary class features with the correct required levels.

I put them at 3, 6, 10, and 14 for a Warlock, so I don't see what's wrong. I didn't have this issue before, and this is just a new version of a subclass I made previously.

dire blade
#
  • It's not generally useful to publish your homebrew like that. It isn't necessary to use it in your campaigns and it makes editing it for your own games harder later.
  • If you insist on publishing, usually resaving it at the top-level (ie. subclass view) will retrigger the error checking process.
#

Also, since you didn't specify, you are using classWarlock and not class2014Warlock, correct? Subclass levels changed between editions.

loud drift
#

Sometimes there's a weird glitch that can be fixed by creating a lvl 1 subclass feat that doesn't actually have anything and doesn't do anything.

dire blade
#

Spam said the other day that had been fixed on the few classes that used to require it, so I am taking them at their word.

#

It isn't a bad idea to create/delete a feature, though, to jostle the error checking.

New dice rolling math? These numbers a) don't add up, b) achieve the same result with different numbers:

😉 Maybe we need to mark "Reliable Talent" in the result box to avoid confusion.

Are you using some kind of third-party extension there to add Reliable Talent?

dire blade

Yeah, I can't reproduce that locally without extensions. It surely must be one.

when I have a spell granted by Magic Initiate feat, aren't I supposed to have it displayed twice, the second one with a normal button "Cast"?

dapper gazelle
#

It appears to be a bug. I have the same problem. But generally, one would think yes, since the spell is prepared and thus can be upcast.

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.

Is there a shared contend list in the campaign

uneven lantern
#

Can you give a specific example of a shared option they can’t select?

#

Hmm… 🤔

what books dous it show if for you press content menagement in the campain formorain?

north junco
uneven lantern
#

Just to double-check…

  • Content Sharing is enabled for the campaign.
  • Someone in the campaign owns the book.
  • The character is assigned to the campaign.
  • The player has synced their entitlements.
#

If all those are true, I’d expect those backgrounds to appear.

#

So if they are all true and you’re still not seeing it, you may want to contact customer support.

I've cracked the case. When I create a character via the campaign link, it creates 2 characters for some reason, and only one is assigned. When you go along the character creation, it's not the one that is assigned to the campaign.

Pro Tip when Homebrewing:

If you create an item based on one type of item, if will not save the changes properly if you change the Base Item Type.

I discovered this when I went to create a magic arrow. I started by making an item based on Arrows +2. As I was filling out the changes, I realized it would make more sense for it to be a quiver which enchants the arrows.

Because I had already done a bunch of work, starting from scratch wasn't ideal, so I changed the Base Item Type from Weapon to Item and finished things. After saving changes and returning to My Homebrew Creations, it came up as Copy_Of... and none of the changes kept properly. It was also flagged as being too similar to publish.

edgy oriole
#

Also remember you don’t have to publish D&DBeyond homebrew to be able to use it and share it in your DDB campaigns.

#

Publish it only if it meets the rules for publication, after it’s been thoroughly playtested and you want to share it with the global DDB community

How woud i go about making this

You gain proficiency with two of the following skills of your choice: Deception, Insight, Intimidation, Performance, or Persuasion.

uneven lantern
#

Set up each choice (like Deception) as its own Option.

#

Inside, add a Modifier to grant proficiency with the chosen skill (i.e. “Proficiency — Deception”).

#

As for choosing two of them, look in the feature for a field called “Levels Where Options Known”.

#

Putting something like 3,3 would give them two choices at level 3.

I built a homebrew species but my player can't access it despite having homebrew turned on

dire blade
#

Make sure they are building their character in the campaign. Homebrew isn’t shared the same way that content is.

I ran into an issue with my character as I was editing it to just see what the other feats do. For my 4th ability improvment I had Shield Master feat selected and I picked a new feat when editing to see the benefits to the other feat but then I was no longer able to select Shield Master. I attached the 2 screenshots as I have a copy of this character in a different campaign that still has this feat in that slot. How do i get my Sheild Master Feat back.

uneven lantern
#

In which case you’d need to either buy the PHB, or have it shared in that character’s current campaign.

void hill
#

ahh i bought it for the DM in my other campaign as a gift so I guess i need to own it then. It just came over with the copy. that makes sense

While I've added the two options for my homebrew species (the species has a choice between sylvan or celestial for a rare language or can forgo it completely in my mind) it's not appearing in the options when my player goes to build their character

If you check the Languages section on the sheet itself, you should see them both there.

peak comet

#

You’ll need to use Options.

#

Set up each possible choice as its own Option, then add the appropriate Modifier inside.

So inside your Sylvan Option, you’ll add that Modifier that grants Sylvan.

I don't see anyone else talking about it, but was having a major glitch in a live game on DDB VTT today where several players' dice would roll correctly, load into the game log, and then immediately glitch out and show as 'Custom: Roll' and only show the base number without the modifier.

Some players tried refreshing the page, changing their dice selection, but it kept happening without a clear reason as to why (i.e., some rolls came through clean and then on a later turn the glitch would happen again).

The games over now, but wanted to mention in case anyone else is getting the glitch.

#

An image of the game log for reference:

Was anyone using a third-party browser extension like Beyond20? That can cause issues (it's a 3rd party extension and neither D&DBeyond nor Roll20 have anything to do with it)

I am trying to write up a homebrew subclass in the D&D Beyond Homebrew editor. I am presented with this:

This Subclass cannot be shared with the community for the following reasons:

  • This homebrew Subclass has data mapped to it that is licensed content or private homebrew. This typically occurs when licensed or private homebrew spells are linked to the Subclass.
  • Soul Warden is currently too similar to Circle of Spores to share with the community.
  • This homebrew Subclass does not have the necessary class features with the correct required levels.

How on earth do I figure out what the licensed data is?

Circle of Spores?! That is a Druid subclass, I am writing a subclass for Sorcerer. Other than the obvious (a description, and sub-class features at level 3, 6, 14 and 18) I don't see the resemblence?

And the last one? What class features with what levels are missing?

#

In other words... Help? 😉

uneven lantern
#

First: those errors only apply if you want to publish it to the global community. If you just wanna use it in your own campaign, it’s shared with them automatically. You can safely ignore those warnings and use it as-is.

#

If you do actually want to publish it, though, try hitting the main button for your subclass first. That will re-trigger the validator and hopefully clear those errors. If not, then we’ll need to dig deeper.

thick arrow
#

I am aware that I can use my subclass within my own campaign no matter what. But I think, of course, that this subclass is amazing, and I would really like to share it with the community.

I am not sure what you mean by this:

try hitting the main button for your subclass first

uneven lantern
#

Sorry, that should have said main save button.

#

If you go to the main editing page for your subclass, which lists the subclass features, there’s a save button under Basic Information.

thick arrow
#

Ok, I had filled out some of these. I cleared them all and saved. Then I only have the licensed data mapped warning left.

#

So, I assume this is because I have spells referenced that are in PHB or other books? If I could keep the spells to Basic Rules only that would be Ok?

uneven lantern
#

The licensed data warning means it’s referring to something outside of the Basic Rules.

#

A spell, most likely.

thick arrow
#

Well that sucks. I understand why, of course, since from a purely mechanical viewpoint, it would make the subclass unusable by people who did not have the appropriate books. But having to remove or replace many of these spells would ruin the subclass completely.

#

Ok, it appears that it actually are only 3 spells that are non-basic rules. So that should be doable. I'll just have to make two versions then. A public version and a private that has the "right" spells. I still think it sucks though 😉

#

Another issue I am having is, I grant a spell at level 3 with two uses per long rest. I'd like this to increase at levels 6, 14 and 18 so a character at level 14 e.g. could use this spell 4 times per long rest. Right now I grant the spell with the respective number of uses at each feature, but this results in the spell being granted multiple times, not replaced.

uneven lantern
#

Not sure that’s really possible…

#

You could give it a number of uses equal to their proficiency bonus.

#

Or you could set it based on an ability modifier.

thick arrow
#

Hmm.. The proficiency bonus thing is not a bad idea. I was messing around with the Homebrew Editor.. It is not particularly intuitive, I am sorry to say. But I noticed that I could maybe use an action?

  • Action Type. Spell
  • Reset Type: Long Rest
  • Limited Use:
#

It would not figure as a spell, but as an action, but with usage management and then I could just duplicate the necessary text from the spell

uneven lantern
#

That won’t add an actual spell.

#

You could use it to add a separate tracker with the right number of checkboxes at the right levels.

#

But it would be completely divorced from the spell itself.

thick arrow
#

That is ok, I think. My idea is that it is a spell-like ability, but not actually a spell. So this would probably work better anyway.

#

I mean technically it would probably behave like a spell, but the idea is it is an innate ability, that improves with experience.

uneven lantern
#

Oh yeah, then an action should work just fine.

#

And makes sharing it easier, too.

#

Make sure to give it a Reset Type (Long Rest).

thick arrow
#

Yeah. I also figured out which 3 spells was blocking me from publishing it, so I have found 3 replacemens from Basic Rules that should work. Then I can just make a private version as well with the "right" spells 😉

uneven lantern
#

Then after you save, you’ll see a Limited Use section you can use to add the checkboxes.

thick arrow
#

Cool. This seems to work nicely. Ok. Final question (for now).
I have another spell effect that is activated by using sorcery points. How would I make the homebrew editor understand something like this?
Essentially, I want a spell that does not cost spell slots and is always prepared, but requires sorcery points. How to do that?

uneven lantern
sacred python
#

spells from feats don't have the "always prepared" option?

uneven lantern
#

They don’t need it. That’s effectively the default there.

#

Any spell provided by a feat is always in addition to your class spells.

thick arrow
thick arrow
#

Argh! The [spell]..[/spell] notation links to the 2014 version of spells! That is not acceptable. How do I change that?

#

Is it possible to homebrew additional Hit Points per level based on the CON. modifier?

real path
uneven lantern
#

On DDB, they added the spells as “At Will”, and the player had to manually subtract the correct number of Ki Points.

#

But it might take longer until we homebrewers get that ability.

Personally, I would verify in your Entitlements if the book is listed.

Does the purchase show in the purchase record of your bank or payment method?

Have you tried another device or browser?

Is it a specific option that is missing in the character browser / can you view the book's contents but not see it there?

Generally though, barring something like the above which might be something else, you will usually end up talking to Beyond Customer Support for a failure in the purchase itself.

Someone might suggest something else in the meantime, but you can put in a ticket.

Yeah that doesn’t tell you if it’s free or not, just that you have access to it.

For example I have access to heroes of the borderlands and stranger things but that’s because I paid for those. It doesn’t say anywhere if it’s paid content or not.

I am having an issue with a Homebrew Magic Item I am creating on DnD Beyond. I am using a Warhammer +3 as the base item that I am copying from. I have Warhammer as the Base Item type selected and Warhammer as the Base Weapon. I then build out the item. When I save the item the base Weapon field no longer shows as Required, but the Magic Item Type now shows as required. The problem is that the base item type is still shown as a weapon and so I actually cannot select into the Magic item type drop down. I have not shared it with the community as I wanted to include some basic spells which can be cast using weapon charges and the website states the item cannot be shared with the community because of that. Any thoughts as to why it won’t let me keep it as a weapon?

Do I need to submit a ticket for something like this?

Hi, my GM suggested I report an issue I'm having with an equipped, attuned item here.
The item is the Dragonhide Belt +2 (rare), which is supposed to increase the save DC of my ki abilities (like stunning strike, etc). I just realized (after having it for a while 🙃) that my DC has not changed. It is 14 instead of 16. Thanks in advance.

I.E. the character doesn’t have to prepare it themselves. They can always cast it.

(It’s not something that would typically be used for a wizard.)

sacred python
#

Doesn't increase the "spells prepared" count or anything

dapper gazelle
#

An always prepared spell never counts against your prepared number but it should increase your total prepares when it comes to time to cast.

So, for example, a Wizard with 5 spells to prepare can choose 5 they want and DDB will list 5, but Cantrips and Always prepared spells won't increase the 5 but will still be available to cast as they are also prepared.

If you will, always prepared should do something in that it should prepare the specific spell(s) but no it should not increase the number displayed as prepared, as that number is only the ones you can choose.

So the Psychic Blades attack listing for a SoulKnife Rogue is still broken in D&D Beyond, right? It doesn't handle the Finesse weapon trait right. And it doesn't seem to list that the attack benefits from VEX weapon mastery. Is there a decent home brew substitute that someone has made that acts like a proper Psychic Blade? And it has the same issues for the Bonus Action attack option.

If you homebrew a statblock for it, you could name the homebrewed statblock. I do not think there is a way directly in the character but someone could correct me if I'm wrong. You would need to access the website though to homebrew which you can also do on your Android device.

And that's unfortunate that you can't change the damage die because it breaks my convenience hacks for wild shape at higher CRs (using a weapon and renaming it to match the wild shape attack so there's something rollable) since there's not any weapons that deal similar damage to higher CR beasts. Really hope entirely custom homebrew weapons are on the short list for the rebuild

Inquiry, could for example one create a cantrip called Kercpa Weapons... 😆... and have it list 1d4 damage with range 160 feet (Tiny Shortbow), or Melee 1d4 damage (Tiny Longsword) as a work around for Kercpa Weapons.

Still Feel that WotC needs to add a few of the Odd Weapons that not have a suitable another weapon to rename. Example Orcish Shotput? How best to give feedback.

The best way to give feedback is to post it to #ddb-feedback . As for your question, using a cantrip is plausible, but it’s still not perfect, and at that point you’re better served just using custom actions.

While yes you can do this, keep in mind that tiny creatures already have half the carrying capacity of small or medium. That sounds like a lot, but equipment does not vary in weight based on size so the ~79 carrying capacity that sounds like a lot will go fast. Lowering that average by 15 to around 64 takes a decent sized chunk out of that number. The Dungeoneer pack alone used to weigh around 60 lbs.

#

If you will, you can lower their strength by 2 but be careful using "Tiny" as the justification.

Is there a reason why I can't see my DMs shared content, but the rest of my party can?

dapper gazelle
#

Do you have a character in the campaign where it is being shared?

Is it possible they are getting the sharing through a different campaign but the one you are in does not have sharing turned on?

If you are looking for something in the character creator , have you tried ticking everything in Sources and Partnered Content in the Home tab and see if the content appears?

That is odd then. Generally, there is only a few things that usually cause these problems...

#

?tag ddb missing

loud sedgeBOT
#

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?
  1. 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 classCleric Cleric (the 2024 class) might not be available for class2014Cleric Cleric (the 2014 class) and vice versa.

# dense viper Can you give some more details like class and charatcer level? Or maybe a screen...

If youre able to view this sheet: https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/164024111

AC is 30, unarmored def bonuses out the arse from items and the class/subclass.

However, typically when you equip armor (like the breastplate in the inventory) the sheet automatically removes all "Unarmored" bonuses and switches to calculating AC based on the armor type + armor bonuses (+ DEX depending on armor type). Currently it is no longer doing this.

So when I put on medium armor on, it is adding DEX beyond +2, and all the unarmored bonuses stay there. Same with heavy armor. It says Armor (None). So DnDB isnt acknowledging armor is on? The armor used is standard WotC items, +9 unarmored is from the class and mods etc, +4 and +2 is from homebrew items that did adjust properly with armor on vs off before.

Even without any homebrew items, its not acknowledging armor is equipped. It does this on other characters of mine as well.

# dire blade I just tested this and it works fine with a normal Monk and the Bracers of Defen...

Has nothing to do with the homebrew. Just stop.

It seems the issue is that if your DEX bonus and/or Unarmored bonus is higher than the bonus of the armor you equip, it just ignores the armor is even equipped and wont override/remove or limit DEX bonus and it also wont remove unarmored bonus, but it does acknowledge Stealth disadvantage etc... So the sheet isnt removing bonuses based on if armor is equipped or not, as long as the bonuses are higher than the armor provides, even though im pretty sure once the armor is equipped its suppose to override any ability that says "While not wearing armor, your base AC equals 1x + any Shield bonus." And remove the bonuses from items that also say this (which it has for me in the past, with homebrew and normal items)

TLDR:

DnDBeyond sheet seems to be picking the highest AC calculation, regardless of conditions.

Hello so I'm trying to homebrew a species that can transform into different forms and I want each of the forms to have like, different bonuses and feats. But I wanna do it in a way that's similar to Rage where I can choose to "Activate Rage" and the sheet is automatically updated with the defences and +2 damage... So it's something like Form 1/option 1 gets +1 to strength and a different set of attack, form 2 gets +1 dex, and different attacks etc etc. would that be possible?

uneven lantern
#

The first one just has the text description, and is shown only in the builder.

#

The second is shown only on the sheet.

That one has an Option that can be selected to activate the feature.

Anything that depends on the feature being active gets added inside that Option.

Different books provide different features. If the DM owns those books they would be usable in their campaigns or if the D&DBeyond campaign has content sharing enabled, those features would be usable in that campaign.

Using 5.5, if you enable a level of Exhaustion, it doesn’t change or affect your dice rolls, right? You still have to do that manually?

How do I add a free use of the spell like in this paragraph

uneven lantern
plush jewel
#

Hello all, I am trying to give a extra homebrew spell to my warlock player, I mange to make it via granting an extra feat to the charater, however, it was not able to upcast using higher level spell slot, anyone know how can I fix it? Thanks for helping!

uneven lantern
#

You’ll need to make a homebrew copy of the subclass and add it there if you want it to use spell slots.

plush jewel
#

I see, thank you.

plush jewel
#

How can I make a spell upcast will increase both dice roll and fix damage? I am trying to make a spell that is 1d4 + 5 on first level, and when it upcast, each level will add 1d4 + 5, I tried to use the at higher level feature but the fixed value won't upscale.

dire blade
#

That can’t be automatically done i believe because no normal spell works that way so it’s not designed for it, though you could just change the text to match the upscaling you want.

plush jewel

Thank you

How do I force the mobile app to sync my sheet correctly? I'm making a character right now, and I changed my mind from one class to a different one so I had to move the stats around or whatever but like, when I go to view my sheet it still has the stats in the previous position. I try to refresh for 5 minutes straight, and it still doesn't switch to the right stats. How long does syncing take?

dire blade
#

Your character sheets should sync automatically, so that's weird. Try force closing the app and restarting it?

sour tartan
#

I did that and it still didn't sync so I think it's a server issue

dire blade
#

Might be an outage, but I just created a new character and did some edits in both places and it synced for me just fine. This may be obvious, but make sure that your app/device is connected to the internet? I'm not sure what it could be that's affecting only you (maybe regional?).

uneven lantern
#

You can pull down on the character sheet to refresh as well.

Subclass feature help. I need 5 cantrip spells to all show up at once in a feature

uneven lantern
#

If so, each one needs to be added as its own Spell entry in the subclass.

#

If you have just one entry that lists all five, it will prompt the player to choose between them.

solid grail
uneven lantern
#

You can do it in the same class feature.

Just make sure the Spells section in that feature has them all listed separately.

Hi! how do u add smth like this on DDB homebrew lol.

Advantage > Saving Throws
Then in details you just type in the text you want it to say there.

#

Let me recommend copying War Caster to see how it works.

dry plume
#

Okok gotcha! Same thing for Disadvantage I presume? Smth like Disadvantage on STR checks made to do smth?

Sure, yes. That will make the red D show up next to things like Athletics, then the details will show on clicking for more details.

Is there another way?

I'm wondering if it's not fully rolled out yet, as I still can't see it.

I actually stumbled on it by accident then figure hey why not

violet fiber
#

How do I stop the duplicate charge w/o getting my account banned?

torn crystal
#

first, i would like you to take a breath; everything will be okay

#

next, submit a support ticket. I think this came up in #ddb-feedback yesterday (or maybe I was reading something that happened in the past), but I think there are authorizations for the amount spent, and then the actual money is taken, which can look like double charges. we saw a lot of this around the new core rulebook releases

#

when everything resolves, only one charge should be there

violet fiber
#

I filed a ticket. Hopefully I don't get double-billed(PayPal)

#

& now it's still in my cart? The heck?

vivid flicker
#

I also submitted. I’m hoping it just didn’t charge and errored out

#

Once I get confirmation I’ll do another try but holding off until then

dire blade

#

Soooo, update: when y'all purchased, the book was still indeed rolling out, so we're curious how you saw it was available to purchase dndLol

vivid flicker
loud drift
#

It shows up in the library before the marketplace, to a degree. With an icon for buying it.

torn crystal
#

yup yup, i'm getting the scoop from the release team about it. when y'all see it there, the book is still rolling out and we're doing testing to make sure everything works and looks good.

so y'all end up buying it during the optimal time for things to go wrong dndLol

loud drift
#

I did not, because I'm broke.

torn crystal
#

oh, I just meant in general!

but yeah, those of y'all who had issues with it this morning, it's because of that. Go ahead and submit a support ticket and they'll get it straightened out.

this is why we wait until later in the day to do marketing; it would be REALLY bad if we said HEY IT'S OUT during the rollout and then everything breaks and everyone is sad

loud drift
#

Since you're here, and I'm sure I know the answer but wanted to confirm, will we eventually get some details about the Ravenloft preorder bonuses (Play Along and mini adventure) before the release? It helps customers decide on overall value when we have more than a title.

torn crystal
#

and just generally speaking, I don't mind being pinged if y'all have questions. 🙂 just might take me some time to respond if i'm in the middle of something else

I try not to unless it's an emergency. Your profile suggests we're in the same time zone so I hope you at least had time for the caffeine to kick in.

violet fiber
#

So it'ls live now, but it still isn't letting me access the content of the book...

Is this due to the duplicate payment situation, or something else(Entitlements are in synch)

dire blade
#

Have you opened a support ticket and gotten a response?

#

It sounds like you bought early and got yourself into a bad state.

violet fiber
#

Haven't got a response yet

dire blade

I'd wait for that, tbh.

uneven lantern
#

If the book’s still in your cart (and more importantly, not in your order history or Current Product Licenses), then you won’t be able to access the book.

violet fiber
uneven lantern

Can’t say I’ve ever used PayPal. I don’t know what their customer service process is like.

violet fiber
#

Also:Removed it from my cart:Still redirected to the Marketplace after trying to read the book itself

uneven lantern
violet fiber
#

It doesn't show up in my product liscences, yet my accounts are synched

uneven lantern
#

Which would explain why it’s not in Current Product Licenses.

violet fiber
#

OK, it's not even there, despite the dual authorizations

#

That's weird

#

Paypal gonna charge me triple at this rate

#

But I'm not doing that yet

uneven lantern
#

A payment authorization just means they checked to see if you had sufficient funds available. It doesn’t mean DDB actually took the funds.

loud drift
uneven lantern
#

I know everyone’s financial situation is different, but personally, I wouldn’t worry about it until/unless those transactions become finalized.

violet fiber
#

So it won't double(Or triple) charge me?

loud drift
#

Shouldn't, but at this point only customer support for DDB or Paypal would be able to help further in that regard.

uneven lantern
#

I’d expect another purchase would show as a third transaction, but that two of those would go away in a couple days, leaving only one.

#

But I’m speaking purely as an outside observer here.

violet fiber
#

This is what I get for jumping the gun with the release.

I PRAY you're right & the other 2 authorizations don't go through to payment when I do it again

#

Should I wait on the support ticket, or clickk Place Order?

uneven lantern
#

If I was in your shoes, I’d wait until I knew someone else had successfully purchased the book before trying again.

#

Assuming that their success would mean my earlier issue and been resolved.

#

And again, assuming those extra transactions will go away on their own in a few days.

violet fiber
#

Has anyone revieved theirs?

uneven lantern
#

I wouldn’t personally bother contacting anyone unless that third attempt failed or those earlier transactions became finalized.

violet fiber
#

Gotcha gotcha

uneven lantern
#

But everyone’s financial situation is their own, so you’d have to make your own choice here.

loud drift
#

I'd wait for the support ticket response or see if the transaction falls off like expected, which ever happens first

uneven lantern
#

Again, I don’t have any first-hand information here.

violet fiber
#

Oh geez, w/the rate people file duplicates of known issues to try & force fixes of their pet glitch/bug/support issue, I'm gonna have to wait a week at least

uneven lantern
#

It probably is faster just to wait and see if those disappear. 😅

violet fiber
#

The authorizations haven't dissappeared so far, and this worries me

uneven lantern
#

Like I said, most banks will take 2-3 days to do it.

violet fiber
#

OK, NOW it says I own it on attempt #3.

I hope the first 2 go away

#

Good news:I've not been charged yet, so hopefully I only get charged for the 3rd one that was successful

How do you provide a player the choice of which Ability Score to use for Spellcasting when creating a Species in DDB?

uneven lantern
#

Add one for each ability, and inside, add the spell set to use that ability.

Making a copy of the 5.5e elf can help show you what Spam means.

uneven lantern
#

That particular example is a bit more complex because you need to choose both an elven lineage and a spellcasting ability.

Why is the Wooden Staff, the Druidic Focus, not equippable like the regular Staff, the Arcane Focus? Additionally, why does it not function as a Quarterstaff beyond that, like its arcane counterpart?

It seems odd that my wizard can just bonk someone on the head, but my druid can't, even though they both wield staves.

#

That seems like a bug. Most folks I know just use a quarterstaff for everything staff-related on a character sheet.

I'm working on a homebrew Feat which allows for progressively better Reactions to attacks. I want it to follow the levels in a specific class, not the overall character level.

How would I go about doing this? Is there a spot in the Action details page I'm missing? I generally do this kind of work through the homebrew builder as it applies to multiple players in a campaign and I'd rather not go through each player's sheet to fix it.

# ivory oriole Just trying to show you that quarterstaves can be used as focuses

I'm not disagreeing. Functionally, all staves are quarterstaffs, but not all quarterstaves are Arcane Foci.

My inquiry was about why, on D&D Beyond, it was not coded to reflect that for a Druidic Focus, the "Wooden Staff" item, whereas the "Staff" item is. If it's an accident, I was just bringing it up so it may be fixed.

You can manually add it from the main character sheet though under Features and Traits->Feats->Manage Feats.

If I submit it to community does someone modify links and such so that it works as intended?

I imagine that's another thing that needs builder 2.0 to work.

Also, just don't publish your homebrew unless 1) you're 100% sure it works as intended, and 2) that is your express purpose, to share with the community.

Do you have “5e Core Rules” enabled for that character?

halcyon warren
#

Its being shared

uneven lantern
#

Is this character assigned to the campaign that’s sharing it?

halcyon warren
#

it is

#

I personaly own the 2024 PHB but not the 2014, I thought the oathbreaker was in the DMG

uneven lantern
#

It’s only found in the 2014 DMG.

#

(It’s not in the 2024 DMG.)

I just created them added them to the campaign used the 2014 Paladin class and it wouldnt show the oathbreaker. I then removed the 2014 paladin and replaced it with the 2024 paladfin and there it was

#

Not sure why that would be the case, but I've got nothing else.

is there a way to put prereqs on classes in the homebrewer?

uneven lantern
#

You can add multiclass prereqs, but not single-class ones.

#

Is there a reason that this isn't doing anything?

#

and is there a reason that the drop down does not show up?

Is this a homebrew species? Because what you've told the species to do is to have separate, species features that provide a bonus of 2 to Strength and a bonus of 1 to something you'd select on the Species page.

#

Starting ASIs are handled by backgrounds now, not species. You don't even have to set anything up, either; it just works that way.

#

Anyway, if you want it to work for older stuff, this is how it should look. Set up a Species Trait that works like this:

#

First one is:

#

Second one is:

#

You need to make sure you wait 15 minutes or so between tests because homebrew caches at roughly that cadence to prevent the site from being DDOS'd.

#

But either way, if you've done exactly what I have above then that works. I am testing it right now for myself and it is just fine.

#

Btw, I don't know if it matters, but set the Display Order for the Ability Score Increase trait to be 1.

#

You have it at 5 right now, and DNDB may be keying off that sort order to know what it is.

smoky spoke
dire blade
#

Wait, why isn't your Ability Score Increase trait Granted?

#

That's almost certainly causing the problem.

#

You should remake it as Granted.

smoky spoke
#

its hard to remember due to the wait every time i edit

dire blade
#

I believe you can set it to hide in builder if that's actually a problem, but you can also just instruct your players to not take both of them.

smoky spoke
#

yeah it doubles up if granted

smoky spoke
dire blade
#

You shouldn't have your "Athasian Aarakocra" always get +2 Strength like that. That's what's causing the doubling up. You have it as a separate species trait to just boost Strength.

#

You need that to be in an Option within a species trait so that it isn't just always applied.

#

"Hide in Builder" does what it says on the tin: it hides the feature in the character builder which means it isn't visible. This would hide one set of your ASI traits if people were also using 5.5e Backgrounds. At some point, though, you should choose if you're making this for 5.5e or 5e and build it the right way for what you're building it for. I don't think you can get it to always show up exactly one time in any permutation because the ASI moved between revisions.

You will need to contact customer support. But you could check any and all email accounts you have and see if any of them have emails from D&DBeyond as that could be an indication on how you registered your D&DBeyond account. As a note D&DBeyond uses 3rd party OAuth like Google, Apple, or Wizards of the Coast to authenticate and so it doesn't have/store passwords itself.

I sent two I cant rember my password are email for my beyond app I tried to log into the computer and since I forget the password and email I can’t do that I just wait for email

Well again it's either Apple, Google, or Wizards of the Coast account that you're using to login to D&DBeyond as those are the only supported ways to authenticate to D&DBeyond.
There's technically a deprecated Twitch account but as indicated with the "deprecated" note, there's a big chance it won't work.

I have Choose Your Origin and Origin Ability Score Increase selected on a character using a 2014 background but I'm not being given the option on Species or Abilities to choose the scores I want. (The increase given by the species is just listed on Abilities like it wasn't replaced.)

#

I'm using the Lotol species from Heliana's Guide.
