Gnomes in general did not get updated; Deep Gnomes did, and should appear as a separate race (in the Ds).
Same with Dwarves and Duergar.
Damn. That's a bummer. But thanks, that explains it.
Hey I need some help deleting my account that my friend started
You’d have to contact customer service for that.

When I went to the website today, it told me Volo's Guide is discontinued. I just bought that during the sale a week or few back. I'm still able to read it in the app. So what does discontinued mean? Will I still be able to create characters using the races in that book? If they remove it entirely, will I get a refund?
You can still use the book you purchased as-is. It’s just no longer for sale.
See https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/1201-faq-for-mordenkainen-presents-monsters-of-the for more background.
Thanks! I figured the info was out there somewhere, but it's hard to find at times if I don't know exactly what to search for 🤔
Never would have thought to look in the faq of another book 😜
@modest pelican Just wanted to thank you again for all of your help yesterday, I did get a response for said sales issue and added it to that ticket. You have been super helpful. 10/10. ❤️
Ok what’s up with beyond? I’m getting error codes trying to add feats to a character in a campaign!
I'm having the problem too, it's restricting everything but "firearm specialist" for me and it makes no sense.. the other options are "grappler" and "svirfneblin magic" but nothing from the players handbook
@stuck coral Yes, you are spamming, please don't. People need time to answer. Also, it's after midnight for me. I had to go in and see if I was having an issue doing what you describe, I was not. I'll see if anyone has a suggestion to help out.
Issue with adding feats to a character
something is wrong with my digital dice when ever i roll they freeze mid movement
How does the Shield of the Uven Rune provide the deadly rebuke reaction? It doesn't have anything other than Bane and Immunity to Cold.
Hey! I'm having trouble. I'm trying to give one of my players the telepathic feat, but whenever I try, it gives me this error. I've tried doing it from a different account, and from a different campaign but nothing seems to work :/ I've successfully added other feats though
What source are you looking at? When I pull up https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/342867-shield-of-the-uven-rune ; I see the Deadly Rebuke between Winter's Friend and Bane.
it has Bane in the Spells, it has Cold Immunity in Modifiers, but there's nothing in there to actually provide the deadly rebuke reaction to show up in the character sheet that I can see.
There's a character in my campaign with that shield, with that reaction, but I don't see how to provide it.
Unfortunately magic items aren't currently able to add actions, bonus actions, or reactions to the character sheet.
This is absolutely something we want to change, as many magic items grant these.
For now, you can add a custom action to the character sheet as a reminder for yourself to check the magic item.
What will appen to those who bought both books that has been given to everyone ?
They will retain access and are free to happily enjoy the adventures at their leisure.
I’d suggest checking that hardware acceleration is enabled for your browser.
What did you need help with? You’d probably get a quicker response if you explained that first (and just once).
Do you own that feat, or is it being shared with you?
Every time I try to add a feat to a character (I own all the sourcebooks) I get a 403 error message. Any ideas why that might be?
You bought that feat yourself, or is it being shared with you?
I own the books that contain the feats and I also have the master tier subscription. None of the feats are working for me
Can you try to add the grappler feat and see if it does the same error?
3876cf691510434291c09bfb74f7d335 Error
dndbeyond character lvl 4 trying to pick a feat.
Are feats broken to look at atm?
Hey is there any way to disable duplicate races from for example morkenheiden's monsters?
or like organise them?
ar at least disable legacy content
Can you try to add the grappler feat and see if you get an error?
I own the feat, and I'm trying to give it to another player's character. Unfortunately, it still isn't working for me :(
Make sure the character is in a campaign with campaign sharing enabled.
That shouldn't be necessary though because I'm the DM trying to give it manually to the player, right? Isn't content sharing just so that players are able to use your content on their own without asking you to add it? Sometimes I get the error when I try to re-enter the player's character sheet.
For instance I was able to give other things that my players didn't own, such as races and backgrounds.
I thought it was necessary. I also think that There is a limit to the number of campaigns you can share in.
anyone else having probs signing up for d&d beyond using a google account? its only allowing me to sign up through apple... 🤔
No problems that I'm aware of - but are you using any ad-blockers or using a VPN? That may impact how Google can (or can not in your case) authenticate you to DnDBeyond.
What happens when you try to sign up with Google, specifically?
nothing. its like a dead link. i click the link and nothing happens. but when i click the apple link, then it goes somewhere
i do use adblockers, maybe thats it
Could very well be. That’s usually an adblocker, or a pop-up blocker, or a social media blocker…
If you’re on Chrome, you also need to make sure third-party cookies are enabled, because I guess Google considers themselves a third party.
So I went to my game today and opening the program on my laptop and it does not have any dice option or roll for anything. Anybody have a clue as to why?
And they are enabled
Are you viewing it through the public sharing link? Try going to My Characters and open the sheet from there.
Have you tried clearing the browser cache and cookies? Wondering if something went wonky in cache.
And you’re logged in and accessing the character sheet through your characters library?
Yes
I even changed characters
Hmm. Time to submit a ticket I suspect. http://dndbeyond.link/SubmitTicket
Kk ty for trying
I'm also having trouble with feats. Player that's added to my game, master tier, sharing enabled, linguist feat, so phb feat, sor. Homebrew race though. Thoughts?
so I'm having an issue with the die roller not working on chrome in character sheets, but not in the encounter builder?
it works in Edge on character sheets as well
just not on character sheets in chrome
i mean the dice don't roll. the UI for the dice rolling is there, but the dice don't spawn and roll, so it seems like it's just stuck waiting for the dice to roll
works in incognito
You’ve likely got a browser extension or similar software interfering.
I’d disable them all. If that fixes it, you can re-enable them one by one to find the culprit.
i have a rouge that's using a Forgery Kit, but can't fined what ability mod it use's?
Tools add proficiency to the check that the DM calls for. Forgery Kit can be Dexterity for skill in copying a sample you have on hand; Intelligence to make a copy of something you've only seen; Charisma to get advantage on your Deception check to pass your forgery off as authentic.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/xgte/dungeon-masters-tools#ToolProficiencies has suggestions for different ways to use them.
I'm trying to add a picture as my theme for my character, but whenever I do I get an error saying "fccea3297c844ba28c4deb3ea52542e7"
I can post the pictures here if that might be the problem
Nevermind, I may have a suitable picture now...
Hi. Sorry to bother you. Have been trying to make feats for special attacks. Instead of on avrae.
And the attacks work.. well mostly but always miss something. Such as modifier of -5 to to attack. Or affect if the creature fails the save. Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Or need to do to get these to work? It seems so close.
What are you trying to do? Give me a bird's eye view.
Those are screens of the homebrew system. What are you trying to achieve?
In this case shooting an arrow.
Hitting a target. They fail a save DC12 Dex. And if so they are pinned in place.
The save works
Does the arrow have a different to-hit or damage than your regular one?
Then what you really need here is an action for the save.
Also, I suggest you look at Ray of Sickness as it has a similar process to what you want.
Ahh so treat it as a spell instead?
No. But Ray of Sickness is also an attack and then a save so that can guide you. If I were you, if your arrow just adds a save on top of a regular shot, I would just create a custom action for the save. Though, in any case, it will only provide you information as mechanical implementation for it is not available in DDB.
Oh. So easier just to make them all in avrae workshop instead perhaps. As I've made one. Was just hoping to streamline it.
Thanks for taking the time. Shame it doesn't integrate properly.
For automation, if you're only on Discord, you're probably better off just scripting in Avrae.
Yeah but this is to help make it for 6+ players. Hmm
Will have to learn more scripting I guess
This would be a lot easier to do directly in Avrae.

Hey, I'm curious if anyone else is having an issue with not being able to use the elipses button on the individual characters under the Manage Characters sub menu. I'm trying to hide characters from a particular encounter they won't be in, so I can see where it says the difficulty is, but even with a refresh and a browser change, the button isn't working.
I cant seem to search for magic items in the search box on DDB anymore. it worked fine before but now nothing is coming up for some reason.
like If I type cloak of only 2 cloaks appear
Yeah, it’s a known issue at the moment. The devs are looking into it.
Which search box specifically?
in the search everything, but even if I use the item search under magic items lots of things dont show like Cloak of falsehoods
I can add them to the char sheets still but I cant look them up for some reason 😦
Thanks for the head up!
There is no official item called Cloak of Falsehoods. That has to be homebrew, either yours or someone else’s in your campaign. Homebrew items won’t show up in the site search or the Magic Items page.
Hi i am using the mobile app and trying to create a circle of spores druid, but it is not coming up as a circle option. I have purchased Tasha's in the player's bundle and even went to piece meal it from Ravenica, but it says I have already purchased the class and domain. I think it may be an error? I can provide screenshots, but it's just not on the list anywhere.
Probably dumb to say but have you restarted the app?
Also it takes a few hours/days for things to update on my app account. Try the mobile website?
Does it say on this page that your account entitlements are in sync?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/marketplace
The options dots for the characters in my campaign on the Encounter Builder aren't working for some reason. I click them and nothing happens.
I'm trying to hide a PC who won't be in this encounter so I can see the difficulty accurately.
That’s a known issue at the moment. The devs are looking into it.
Thanks!
Hi thank you. I have restarted it haha and I have gone to the desktop site and it is still not populating. Here is an image of my cart when I go to add things individually.
Oh! Do you have Magic the Gathering Content enabled for that character?
I did not. Is that what I need to enable?
That seems to be working!
Since those were first printed in an MTG sourcebook (Ravnica), you will need to turn it on before they appear.
Thank you for this. Appreciate it.
Just wished I could of made it in feats so it was easily shared and used amongst my group.
Anyone in the group should be able to copy+paste that to add it to their character. Alternatively, a servalias could make that a little easier. #ddb-avrae-help can walk you through your options.
Legend. I ended up making the last one in avrae workshop and then gave someone the code to upload.
I have a large one with multiple options as a feat and not sure how to help get players to use the choices they have made. Except for making the attacks one by one
So, just a question, how does this work? Like, is it just the character sheets and battle calculations and stuff, or does it have the whole board and everything virtual?
I need some help with the app. I bought a race and it's not coming up in the race selection.
There isn't a "sign on and play" game if that's what you're asking. DnDBeyond provides digital tools and access to the rules in a digital format to assist players and Dungeon Master's in playing D&D 5th Edition.
Which race?
Kenku
How long ago did you buy it?
Is there a checkmark next to it on this page?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/marketplace/sourcebooks/mordenkainen-presents-monsters-of-the-multiverse
Alright, mb seems like I bought the wrong thing lmao
Hi ya'll, kobold legacy has messed up and created the spell line 3 more times than needed. can be seen here https://ddb.ac/characters/74440777/zVi56Y
How does one use DDB to track hit points on a monster? I’ve googled everything I can think of and can’t find it.
does anyone know how to create a class feature that allows the player to roll a die and get an effect? i.e wild magic
Can you unselect your choice for that feature, refresh the page, and select it again? Does that solve the issue?
Two options. A) add it to an Encounter and run the encounter, or B) add it to the Extras tab of your character sheet, then click it and open the Hit Points section in the sidebar.
yes it has, sorry just saw the message
For tables in general, it’s usually easiest just to copy+paste one in. Alternatively, you can click the </> source view button in the toolbar and add the table through HTML.
So I'm building a new character and I need these things to get the build that I want. Where can I purchase these?:
Circle of the moon druid
Hermit
Augury
Continual flame
Summon Beast
Elemental Weapon
Revivify
Fire Shield
Players Handbook for all of them.
Oh alright
Thanks
I wasn't able to find augury, continual flame, summon Beast, revivify or fire shield
Summon Beast is Tasha's. Others are PHB/Basic Rules.
Make sure your PC is high enough level and/or is in their spell list
Summon Beast aside, these are all in the free Basic Rules — no purchase necessary.
Slight correction:
Circle of the Moon subclass is from the Player's Handbook and isn't in the free Basic Rules.
Same with the Hermit background, and the Elemental Weapon spell.
Yeah, I was replying specifically to the second post, which listed all the things they couldn’t find in the PHB marketplace page.
I have question. For order of the Lycan BH. Is the form only a werewolf or whatever I want? I've been looking around and can't find anything
#dnd-rules can help with that. (This channel is meant for technical help with the site itself.)
ok my bad thx👀
No worries! Happens all the time. 😅
Quick question: what dice is this? (Just noticed this)
It looks like half a d8, but I don't recognise the design
Look like the ringmaster set or something
I believe it's the mythic dice set
That’s what I was thinking as well.
Just timed so that the gaps between the panels aren’t very visible.
I'm having trouble with a spell that I bought
I bought elemental weapon but it's not showing up when I go to equip it on a level 20 character
It's a druid
Elemental weapon isn't listed as a druid spell
Im trying to resub my hero subscription but the site freezes and i cant click anything
ive already submitted two tickets over the course of two weeks but i have not been emailed back
Tickets are responded to in the order they are received, but submitting multiple tickets will result in you being pushed down the queue as all tickets are automatically consolidated under the most recently received one.
thank you for letting me know, do you know what i could do about the issue?
it says the subscription is canceled but i can not resub
I don't I'm afraid, however I can raise how long you've been waiting
why is magic missile only showing 1d4+1 instead of 3d4+3
and is there a way to turn upcasting off
because I don't like how cluttered it looks sometimes
It shows the damage per missile, in case you send the different missiles at different targets.
For the other, click your character portrait, open Character Settings in the sidebar, then find “Show Level-Scaled Spells” and turn it off.
I friend of mine (not in this server) similarly has been locked out of her dndbeyond account since May 17th -- would you mind following up with your support team to see if they can respond to her ticket #1043894 ?
how do i change the damage dice on the homebrew system. i have a weapon that im basing on the greatclub weapon but i want to change to damage dice from 1d8 to 2d8 in the roll button (the one you click to roll the dice on the website/app)
I'll try to look for this today, but please tell your friend that we will respond to tickets, there is a sizeable backlog right now and this means a week wait is not unexpected. If they have a ticket in, they dont need to raise extras (as this slows us down even further)
Thanks Joel, will do!
To create a homebrew magical item that grants you all languages, you need to add a modifier that says "Language - All", right?
Or am I doing it wrong, because the "All" doesn't show up on character sheets that use the item.
As you try to enter the 403rd level of the endless dungeon, the ancient dragon Rylzrayrth rises up to block your path. The dragon has forbidden you from traveling any further.
In other words, you don’t have access to complete the action.

Having this issue when trying to give a cantrip to one of the players in my campaign
she cvant add it herself, and I get this error when trying to add it to her
Is content sharing enabled? I assume the cantrip is something you have access to, but it would need sharing enabled for the player to select
yes
it was enabled by another member of our group, then by me, botht imes it didn't work and got the ame error
Can you link the character sheet URL and tell me what you are trying to add?

And just to confirm, you are the DM?
I am
The player's entitlements aren't in sync - https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/marketplace - ask them to Sync their entitlements on the account page
OH
That should resolve the issue (both of you assigning and them being able to see the shared content and select it themselves)
I couldn’t finalize my purchase. My user ID is: 100337102 and the subscription plan is Monthly with order ID GPA.3337-0960-6609-75461 and purchase token jfhlchpaagkffeibbkombghj.AO-J1Oyf0cubWv1kISpoScPsMp6XoyHQytldXIisb4XBBcvj735iUTVDuwUBDEtMupM_i9D1dbuBYtrJVV_b69BBVVkixiYyqPuRr2vSCsMO5ByakDwpHUk
Known issue - the team are working on it - send to support via email (as the app prompts0 and when we can activate the purchase we will (currently waiting for the team to update things so we can)
@final trellis to follow up with @marble thunder's issue, I was having similar issues with a new addition to our party. I'm the owner of the account and had sharing on, but it was throwing similar errors on a variety of things other than spells. I was able to regain control by disabling all content that I was sharing, then turning sharing off, then back on and activating the content again. Hope this helps others!
That sounds like part of those steps helped refresh the entitlements sync (which is generally the main culprit of the issue). Glad to hear it is working though!
For sure. The marketplace link said I was all synced up and I saw no other option to refresh them manually or force a sync, but that info put me on the right path!
It may have been the player's entitlements werent in sync (which only they can do, unless something triggers a reset)
Good to know 🙂
Hello, I need some help. All the monsters from Monsters of the Universe are available in the encounter builder, different from other monster source books. Does this mean it is free? I have not bought the book yet so that's my doubt.
The stat blocks are available it's what I mean.
If you haven’t purchased them yourself, it’s likely you’re in a campaign where Content Sharing is enabled and someone else in that campaign has purchased it.
I am there as a DM but not as a player
Your role in the campaign (or theirs) doesn’t make a difference.
When Content Sharing is enabled, everyone’s purchased game content gets shared with the whole group.
oh, didn't know about that. Thanks 😄
So I have tried all proposed solutions to this and I'm still coming up empty. The dice roller doesn't work for me on character sheets or in the character creation stat generation page in chrome. Disabling all extensions had no effect on this, my cookie settings are chrome default, my browser is up to date. The dice roller does work in the encounter manager, in chrome's incognito mode, in Microsoft Edge. I'm at a total loss.
well, I tried one more thing; I changed the dice skin I was using. It worked.
One of the Battle for Beyond dice skins is broken.
where should I report this?
If you can share which skin is causing the issue here, we can relay that information
im getting the dndbeyond 403 black dragon error whenever I try to select a feat on a character in a campaign i control as the DM
i own all the content though, so this shouldnt be happening
There’s a known issue at the moment where that happens if the recipient doesn’t have access to it. Do you have Content Sharing enabled for that campaign?
no, as im not a subscriber
Well it doesn’t have to be you, necessarily. Anyone in the campaign with a Master Tier subscription can enable it, and once it’s enabled, everyone’s purchases get shared.
But either way, the player that owns that character would need access to that feat first.
So im on the website, and i got to create a character and i get the message "Whoops! We rolled a 1 on our API check. We're heading into town to visit the blacksmith for repairs." I dont know why, its every single time
When does that happen? As soon as you click Create A Character?
Do you get the same issue in another browser or on another device?
How many characters do you have currently? And do you have a subscription?
question about the campaigns though
after i start it what happens, does a map pop up, and can i add my own hombrew as the session goes on.
I thought DM's were able to add their own content onto characters in their campaign. It has functioned this way since forever
and this is only for feats too. Spells, Subclasses, and other content I own works
DDB campaigns are primarily for tracking the group’s character sheets. You can also build and run encounters for that campaign. Any homebrew you create or add to your My Homebrew Collection gets shared with your campaigns automatically (regardless of your role in that campaign). DDB does not currently have interactive map support.
Like I said, it’s a known issue at the moment.
Adding that feat will currently fail if the player does not have access to it.
are there any plans to fix it soon or is it like a pending issue
like hotfix type thing or wait till next patch
Hey I’m trying to use the bot but when I do !char it doesn’t work
Problem resolved in #ddb-avrae-help 
I honestly don’t know. DDB doesn’t usually give specific time frames for things.
Im attempting to make a homebrew sword that gives temporary hitpoints equal to your 1d6 times your level but idk how to set that up as a modifier for the sword. Anyone know how I do that or if I even can?
There’s no modifier for that. I’d just put it in the text description.
(And maybe add a custom action directly on the character sheet to roll with.)
Hi - I've been reskinning DnD spells to make them more thematically appropriate (Ancient Greek setting). I've gone a tempest cleric, but I can't put in the reskinned spells to the domain, so I'm trying to reskin/copy the tempest domain to be "Priest of Zeus". The only thing that is not working is that the reskinned/homebrewed spells aren't coming up as "Always Prepared" domain specific spells - any idea how I go about making that happen?
I was wondering if anyone could help my subscription expired and I keep getting a screen that says payment could not collected when I try and resub
Does anyone know why I can't add Scorpion Armor to my character sheet?
Do you own Tomb of Annihilation (or have shared access to it) and does your character meet the pre-requisites to wear plate armor?
...I'm a dumbdumb. I could look at the item because my DM is sharing that book with me, but the character I'm making isn't in that campaign.
Thank you for pointing out the obvious, Davyd! 😛
No worries, glad to help
Don't worry, I made that mistake too
Anyone else having issues with their digital dice not rolling on the web browser? Mainly on the cell phone?
damn okay. Thanks though
Hey dumb question. Can you add stuff to your inventory and choose to have it deducted from your gold?
no, because there are so many ways to deduct change it won't be done automagically
Does anyone know if the sub-classes from Acq Inc are more built into the character sheet
There are no subclasses in Acquisitions Incorporated
the like, decisionist and hoardsperson roles
No, the franchise roles are not yet integrated into the character sheet
ok
so I saw the message that said my account was going to convert to a WOTC account. and it looks like my login has not changed at all. has it happened? is there any way for me to verify any account migration/merging has taken place already?
Nothing was changing with logins. All that changed is DDB is now apart of Wizards of the Coast. This means the account data is now owned by Wizards of the Coast (where as before it was owned by Fandom).
oh ok. I misread the message I guess. I was under the impression that the account were going to be converted to WOTC accounts. Thank you for the clarification
No worries, glad I could help! 🙂
Hey, I've messed around with Custom background before...but on a new character it doesn't seem to show that I selected Deception proficiency. Idk why.
Select something else, then go to the sheet, then go back and reselect deception
thank you I'll try that
I selected stealth and sleight of hand, went to my sheet, those aren't selected either xD
Is there a way to manually give myself the proficiency?
I just changed the sheet back to deception/perception and they show up.
this is probably me being stupid but i cant claim the acquisitions incorporated book. The forum post says it ends 27th but the actual claim page says 25th. Did i miss out on this one?
Can you link me to where you are trying to claim? Is this via a web browser or are you trying to do this from an email?
web browser
this is the forum post that i clicked on to get to that link^^^
I just tested the first link you provided and it worked right away
When you get to the claim page (https://www.dndbeyond.com/claim/source/ai) is it that the page isnt loading, or the button isn't working? What exactly is happening?
this is what I see
I just tried opening that link in a different browser and it ended up working
sorry about that 😅
Thanks, glad its working, my best guess is it was a caching problem. The first browser had cached the original page so was stopping at the original time.
i see, thank you!
Do I have to buy the races specifically from the Monsters of the Multiverse book for the updates to take effect on the client?
Yes, as they are separate options. This is why the legacy tag exists
Whenever I select an option on my homebrew subclass's Bestial Spirit it tells me I still need to pick an option and also how do I add something like the totems warrior bear totem where they only get those resistances while in rage? https://www.dndbeyond.com/subclasses/1294537-path-of-the-beastmaster
how many people can cloud of daggers hit?
This is the wrong channel for that question
You want #dnd-rules @stiff fractal
I redeemed the code that I got with my in person essentials kit and I have no clue how I access the maps and stuff that came with it on DND beyond, anybody know how?
They’re all inside the book, like this map of the Sword Coast:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/doip/running-the-adventure#MapoftheSwordCoast
Does the essentials kit come with tokens? Found the maps and everything fine but I need some tokens
No
I got the free offer for Acquisitions Incorporated, and downloaded the book in the DDB app, and I can’t access any character features
Try going to #ddb-avrae-commands, then type !token and the name of the monster, e.g. !token anchorite of talos

All of them. Nothing appeared, even though it said in the DDB app that it was downloaded
IDK who handles this but I think this should be ...@rounddown+3 instead of +2
Blood Hunter Order of the Mutant
My credit card number and the cv I type it in but for some reason it doesn’t show up and it happening to both my pc and mobile phone and I can’t use PayPal either the option for that is cut off
Try with a private/incognito browser - my guess is something with your browser setup is blocking the elements from loading - perhaps an ad blocker or VPN, etc.

I do have mcaffe but it’s never been a problem before
Still didn’t work
Do you have any custom CSS/userscript or the like? Also what browser(s) are you experiencing this with?
Working on a Variant of a Hombrew Race. I think I made an mistake but I'm not sure which one ^^" It shows me everything double.
Can you provide a link to the homebrew (you don't need to publish it)
hope this is the right one
https://www.dndbeyond.com/races/1039551-tamaranian
It's because you've set up the variant as being an exact copy of the base race
Meaning it has all the same properties with none of them replacing anything
If you have a race with traits A, B, C and D
If you make a variant that changes trait B for B1, when you set up the variant you'll want to only give it trait B1 and set that trait to replace B
What you've done is made a race with traits A, B, C and D, and given it a variant with traits A1, B1, C1 and D1 but none of them set to replace anything
So when you select the variant, it has traits A, B, C, D, A1, B1, C1, and D1
Hey I can’t find where to get the artificer class I keep seeing things that say to buy Eberron: Rising from the last war book and I go to the book and I don’t see the artificer class or any atrificer sub classes at that
Please don’t directly ping staff members.
You can get the artificer class by purchasing any artificer subclass from Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/marketplace/sourcebooks/tashas-cauldron-of-everything
Alchemist, Armorer, Artillerist, or Battle Smith
So if I buy tashas cauldron of everything I should get the artificer?
if you buy any of the subclasses individually, you also get the base class as part of the package
It does, if you buy the full book.
Oh
To buy the subclasses individually, you have to get it through Tasha’s.
My friend just gave me $30 to buy the class
So if I buy tashas I should get that and more classes?
More subclasses, but yes.
Yoy will get the Artificer class and all the subclasses in Tasha's
Armorer specifically is only in Tasha’s.
if you have 30 bucks, getting tashas will get you the most new content to play with
hey guys, i need help with making an op hexblade warlock 12 level to get through a very difficult campaign
#character-discussion can help with that. (This channel is more for technical help with the site itself.)
Is anyone able to explain why a homebrew subclass doesn't appear in the spell description but does appear when editing the spell? (Both spell and subclass as just reskinned versions of existing spells and subclasses and aren't for sharing anywhere...)
When choosing the subclass, the spells don't appear as already prepared spells...
can some one make me a dnd character i need a good levle 3 barbarian
any thing will work as long as it is a barbarian
#character-discussion can help with that. (This channel is more for technical help with the site itself.)
But if you go to the character creator and hit “Randomize”, you can just put in the level and class if that’s all you care about.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/builder/randomize
ok im not shure how im new i now some stuff but biulding a charicter is not my strong sute i was hopeing someone could do it for me and supris me on the charicter
Then #character-discussion can help with that.
I’d generally advise against putting subclasses (homebrew or official) in that Available For Class(es) box. It can be problematic.
If you want it always prepared for that subclass, I would instead add it to the subclass itself, under “Additional Specific Spells”.
oh ok
Thanks - it's in the "additional specific spells", but not showing up as always prepared...do you think making the spell's "available for Class(es)" blank might help?
It might. I’m honestly not sure.
How long ago did you add it to Additional Specific Spells, though?
a few days ago now...
Homebrew edits can sometimes take up to 15 minutes before they show up on the character sheet.
Ah. Not caching, then. 😅
haha, no such luck, unfortunately! 😅
Anything you put in that box (for a Cleric) should follow the normal Domain Spells rules — including having it always prepared. So that’s very strange. 🤔
Would the fact that the spells are almost identical to existing spells have an effect? ie, I've simply renamed them to suit an Ancient Greek themed world - so, for instance, instead of Call Lightning, I'm using Call Down Astrape
It shouldn’t. Are none of those spells showing as prepared, or just the one?
none....hang a tick and I'll just copy my character and level him up a bit to check on the other spells...
I was about to ask about their level. They’d need to be at least level 5 to have 3rd-level spells like Call Lightning.
Also, if they’re just renamed spells and this is just for your own campaign, you can totally just rename the official ones right on your character sheet.
Nope, none of them are there...I've compared with the tempest domain (reskinned to Priest of Zeus)...
Oh! I didn't know that!
Yep! Just click the spell and open the Customize section in the sidebar.
That sounds heaps easier...can I modify the descriptions too?
You can give it custom Notes that show up there on the sheet. Clicking the spell would still show the original description in the sidebar, though.
Thank you so much for that! That'll be my project for tomorrow! 😅
I recently switched my chrome account so I have to log back in, but when I click on "Sign in with Google" it does nothing
Signing in with Twitch seems to be fine but I didn't associate my account with it
Can anybody help please??
That’s usually an extension interfering, like an ad blocker or such.
Or if you’re on Chrome especially, you may need to enable third-party cookies.
Okay let me try something
My adblockers had never interfered like that before haha
I've enabled third-party cookies and disabled my adblocker and it still won't work
Don't worry, I've tried firefox and it seemed to help
Pop-up blocker?
Looks like a problem with chrome
I'd disabled that
Does it work in Incognito mode?
Definitely sounds like an extension doing it, then.
Sounds like my pop-up blocker still works when it's off, and the only extension I use is Kaspersky
Ah. It’s probably definitely Kaspersky. 😅
I'll probably delete it cos I don't really need it as a chrome extension
I've got the system app anyways so it should be good enough
Thanks for the help!
I bought hero subscription.in the app, and it went through an hour ago.

Is there anyway to see subscription history? I don't see it under my purchases unless a year came with a bundle or something
Can the Custom Lineage from Tasha's be bought individually (like race options from other sourcebooks)? Can't find it under Individual Purchase Items
Sooo… I know the Customize Your Origin rules are available to use for free. The Optional Class Features require purchase of the full book. Custom Lineage is in one of those two boats, but I’ll confess I’m not sure which. 😅
Have to tried to select it for a character already? It would show up under the Race selection (alphabetically) if you’ve got access already.
Yes I'm creating a new character right now, goes from Aarakocra -> Dragonborn so I'm guessing it's locked behind the entire sourcebook?
The Customize your origin features (aka what I called the Optional class features but for the race) is available without purchase.
The Custom lineage race though needs... tashas? (Its still first coffee for me)
Yeah, it must require the full purchase of Tasha’s, then.
(It’s definitely not available individually.)
Yeah it needs the full tashas book, like the Optional Class Features
Probably because it isn’t a race, on a technicality…
Thanks for the help
what's the future for the encounter builder going to be?
also will there be any way to have owned the online book by already having it as papercopy
Encounter Builder - likely continued development and polishing up, eventually becoming a part of the "long term goal" of a shared virtual play space.
Physical books granting access to digital version - Not likely in the near term because of the logistics and resources needed to pull that off in a reasonable and sane way that doesn't leave physical bookstore/game store and other supply chain partners out.
If you’ve got the physical book, you can use the homebrew tools to recreate that content for free, though.
Or you can purchase just the parts you need, like a single subclass. Whatever you spend gets credited toward the cost of the book itself, too.
Quick question. Can players share content or just DM?
The content sharing goes both ways! Everyone in the campaign on DDB shares everything they own with everyone else as long as one person has content sharing on.
Yeah the person with the Master Tier subscription can enable content sharing and the DM of the campaign can determine what books are shared (to a degree - the devs know about the desire to have more fine-grained permissions around content sharing).
Sorry

Okay I still have problems with creating a variant to my homebrew race that changes the walking speed. This is how it is currently. Before I had it as a Racial Trait under Speed and had it replaced in the Variant but in the builder it still showed up as the same one and now I'm lost on what to do to make it work.
The new trait didn’t appear (under Features & Traits), or the new Walking Speed didn’t (at the top of the sheet)?
so one version has 35ft walking speed and 30ft climbing speed, while the other only has the walking speed. I have the one with climbing as basis and the Variant is gonna be the one without. either way I try to set up the speed it doesn't replace them.
First I had them in both the top part and in the features and traits to replace it, then without trying with either. it didn't work for me.
Right, but when you got to the character sheet, did it show the updated text on the Features & Traits tab? Was it just the displayed walking speed at the top of the sheet that was wrong?
So only dm needs to have Master Tier or anyone who wants to share content
Anyone in the campaign with a Master Tier subscription can enable content sharing for that campaign, regardless of whether they’re a DM or player.
And once it’s enabled, everyone’s purchased game content gets shared with everyone else.
been a while since i used the website, and character creation is exceedingly slow - what can i do to troubleshoot?

I have problems with Above VTT, new player characters don't show up in Players Tab, any sugestions?
Above VTT is not an official product and isn’t supported by DDB.
Well I know, new character is on D&D Beyond, its in the campaign, its just don't show up on Token -> Players Tab
oh... my bad -_-' sorry, Imessed the Discords
do you rlly need an DC 15 to use an bag of persuation?

noOOoOOooooooooooooooo, earlier today the portraits were finally showing properly on dnd beyond for me but now they have broken again ;_;
anyone got a fix that doesn't involve deleting all my browser data (which is where my dnd games info is all stored)?
It's most likely a cache issue which means clearing your browser cache. Some browsers allow you to do that much more granularly (like just clearing the browser cache just for that site).
I use aboveVTT so it's sort of stored on the dnd beyond site anyway so don't think I can do that
Welp... then I guess you 're stuck with broken images (browser trying to fetch outdated image data from cache).
DnDBeyond doesn't support AboveVTT so if AboveVTT is also doing caching... it may not be a DDB issue.
it is a ddb issue, it's been around since the big server hack or something a while back
a lot of ppl I know have the same issue and also happens in dnd beyond itself, seems to be an issue pulling through pictures that other players have uploaded
You can also hold down shift + F5 and see if that helps (forces Chrome to refresh without hitting cache)
I'll try that
(or shift + browser refresh button)
the pictures havcen't been working for me for months but then last night / earlier they started working again, was so excited
but now broken again ;_;
really weird. Some are working now some aren't. seem to be coming and going. I'm hoping that this is a sign of it being fixed
or server-side caching being cleared out over time...
Has anyone had subscription issues? I can't access any of my characters. It says that I need to renew my subscription and when I try it won't let me!! I know my credit card is good as I used it recently to purchase the upcoming books. Has anyone experienced this?
You'll need to submit a ticket so that customer service can assist you http://dndbeyond.link/SubmitTicket
Already done, thank you. Just wondering if anyone else went through this and are they fast at answering? I have a game Monday and Tuesday
There is apparently a known issue with subscriptions right now that the devs are working on identifying and fixing. In the mean time, use the customer support ticket system. Tickets are answered in the order they are received (and submitting another ticket will just reset you back of the line). As I don't work for DnDBeyond/WoTC I don't know what the timeline is for when they'll answer but as it's the weekend in the US, I suspect Monday would be the earliest they would be able to respond and handle it.
Well good to know that it's a know issue. As for the answering speed That was my guess as well since I'm located in Canada and most ppl in tech don't work on the weekends either. Thanks 🙂
I hope they can get your subscription issue resolved for you in time for your games!
Thank you 🙂
is there a way to overwrite what stat does what? I want to add a feat that allows me to roll intimidation checks with STR rather than CHA
Yep! Click the skill, open the Customize section in the sidebar, then set “Skill Set Override” to STR.
Alternatively, you can click the gear next to “Skills”, open the Custom Skills section in the sidebar, and add a separate skill for STR Intimidation.
can you also do it in a homebrew subclass?
You know, I’m honestly not sure. 🤔
If you can find an official subclass that does that kind of thing, you can make a homebrew copy of it and see exactly how they set it up.
in words. "You gain proficiency with the Intimidation skill. You are always allowed to roll Intimidation checks with your STR modifier rather than CHA"
I'm not sure if an official subclass allows that, I also don't own any expansions I'm just a f2p player
I can’t think of any off the top of my head, tbh.
And generally speaking, the homebrew tools are built to facilitate the official rules. If nothing official does that, it might not be possible.
We don't weekends (alas, whilst the boss would love us to be warforged, we apparently need this thing called sleep... I say as i wake up for 6.30am... on a Sunday...). Can you let me know your ticket number and I can take a quick look?
imagine that you’re only human!! 😂 I’m shocked and appalled 😜
Thank you for looking, I really appreciate it. Ticket # 1164138
Somedays i dont even feel human, but then I have coffee and everything feels better. Manually cancelled the sub, you should be able to start a new sub without running into the failed payment loop
Will my characters disappear? That was the thing I feared the most. Well that and being eaten alive by bugs but that for another thread.
Characters are not lost when subscriptions lapse, they are put into a state of inactivity where you cannot edit them unless you choose up to the six characters you can have with a free account to activate.
It worked!!! Thank you so much!! I really appreciate you taking the time on a Saturday evening ❤️
Happy to help 🙂

Is there a way to take the fighter's fighting styles and add them to subclasses of another class? and also make a homebrew one?
Currently, there are no options of making homebrew classes. Also, I believe that Fighting Styles are a class feature, not a subclass feature, so you can't add them. But a moderator or Beyonder will correct me.
the Champion has extra fighting styles as a subclass feature. take a look at how that is build
if you play fighter, does dndbeyond automatically give you the bonuses of a fighting style, or do you have to keep track of them yourself?
it's automatically calculated, except for Superior Technique due to a system limitation
Hi. If I wanted to create a Hollow one from Wildemount, how can I find those stats on D&D Beyond other than adding them manually?
They're not currently natively supported, you have to enter them manually
I want to ask...will D&D Beyond be keeping its integration of Blood Hunter for the forseeable future?
Cause...well DDB isn't administrated by the same people now, so I'm wondering how that would work.
Anyone know how I can make a homebrew spell use hitdice in beyond?
How can one make backpack homebrew item?
AFAIK, the only official spell to use them is Wither and Bloom. You could try making a homebrew copy of that to see how it’s set up. (I’d bet it’s just in the text description, though.)
If it’s for private use, it’s probably easier just to add a backpack to your character and rename it. (Click the item and open the Customize section in the sidebar.)
Otherwise, I think you’d need to select an existing container like a Bag of Holding as a template when you create your homebrew.
First thing I tried, did not yield desired result 😛
https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/142069-how-to-make-homebrew-backpack-item
Thanks to new updates, managing player inventory has become easier. You can add a backpack item, then customize it to suite your needs.
But what is the...
can you add extra attack to a homebrew subclass in beyond?
ah I found it
The Critical Role content that wasn't included in the books will still be accessible as things currently stand. The change in ownership doesn't affect it as Fandom wasn't the owner of Matt Mercer's homebrew stuff.

Had trouble identifying the best possible channel for my question, and I'm sure it has been answered but my searches failed, so apologize for redundancy + thanks for any redirection:
As a player in a campaign, I created a homebrew copy of Clockwork Soul to workaround the issue that dnd beyond lacks support for changing out the granted domain spells (this affects Aberrant Mind as well).
If I am a subscriber and have sharing enabled, will my DM and others be able to see my homebrew workaround on my character sheet, or must it instead be recreated as a homebrew by the DM?
You can create it and use it and the DM will be able to see it.
Thank you! 🙏

Might be just super tired, but the Dragonhide belt doesn't seem to give the While wearing it, you gain a +3 bonus to the saving throw DCs of your ki features. With the others like the wizard book or the drum for bards it does show up in the features.. is that a technical standpoint that it doesn't increase on the sheet because not possible to program or because those items don't have that bonus given?
This is mentioned on the Fizban's Support Thread - https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/d-d-beyond-general/bugs-support/123752-fizbans-treasury-of-dragons-issues-and-support
Dragonhide Belt. You can equip this magic item to your character, but it does not currently modify the saving throw DCs for monk features automatically.
OOhh.. okay thanks, seems like I either over read it or it didn't show up. Thanks for the info. Any way I can implement it on Avrae then? Possible over the CC's command then?

correction.
It works in the homebrew section just not in the encounter section
I'm trying to figure out how to expand a warlock's spell list with a slightly tweaked Great Old One subclass. I added the spells I wanted Borrowed Knowledge & Pass Without Trace to the ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SPELLS section on the subclass' main page, and added them to the Expanded Spell List feature like the other spells that were already there and saved everything, but they don't show up as options when I manage spells on my character sheet for some reason.
I copied and pasted exactly what you wrote here, and it seems fine on my end.
so what is strange is it works everywhere but encounter builder
The screenshot above is from the encounter builder.
that is wierd
It shows that way for me whether I view, edit, or run the encounter.
Do you get the same issue in another browser, or on another device?
i did try clearing cookies.
let me try another browser
same thing in another browser
The Description field is purely for displaying text. It doesn’t alter your character sheet in any other way. In this particular case, you’ll want to also go back to the main edit screen for your subclass, find a field called “Additional Specific Spells”, and add them there.
same thing on another device also
tryed coping it it got the same thing
Very strange. 🤔
You might want to contact customer support for that one, then. Maybe they can take a look under the hood.

I've reset my purchases on app but still nada.

It asks to download again. But only gives me the "open book" prompt
I've signed out and resigned in but no change.
I cannot open any shared with me content either.
Thankfully I can open sourcebooks from website
Spells still aren't showing up as an option from the manage spells window. But they're definitely in the Additional Specific Spells box.

As noted above I am not able to retrieve my sourcebooks through app since new phone install .

Wait so if Volos guide to monsters is considered legacy and I can’t buy it how do I get all the content that’s in it?

With some changes*
and the lore, a decent amount is reprinted, but it's also missing the 'mini titles' or mini headers, like idk Servants of Evil for a paragraph of lore for some undead thing, as an example. Instead of having those bits of boldened text, it's just... not segmented
As mentioned, Monsters of the Multiverse has the latest rules and lore for those races and monsters.

I got refunded for a failed subscription i did on friday.
Is it worth trying through the app again? I have google credit, so i don'y want to pay outside the app.
I suggest using a web browser and the website marketplace - that said there have been recent reports of issues with subscriptions (devs are aware and looking into it) that may require you to submit a ticket to customer service to get it resolved: https://support.dndbeyond.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Thanks, it was resolvrd and refunded. But i have google credit, which is why i need to use the app.
You can link to your DnDBeyond character sheet there, yes.
Thanks
You may need to reach out to Google Play's customer service as the DDB people won't have access to that payment system.
is there a way to make a homebrew fighting style for fighters?
Not really, but you could simply leave your fighting style unselected and add your homebrew one through other means, like a homebrew feat.
true
As i said, DDB already did the refund. Just not sure if it is worth trying again now.
Yes, but if you continue to have issues I'd recommend reaching out to Google Play's customer service as DDB wouldn't have access to see why it isn't going through.
Without knowing why it failed none of us can offer any advice.
Thanks, guess my main concern was if it is known that it is busted on the app across the board or not

Just to make sure, is there no way for a homebrew to have a pre-requisite? I've not seen a way to actually do so

D&D Beyond is a digital toolset for playing D&D. It’s not a game itself.

D&D Beyond gives you access to the game rules, digital character sheets, and more.
oh ok
But the actual gameplay happens elsewhere: in person, on Discord — whatever works for your group.

oh alright sorry my bad
So ||Charm of Restoration|| isn't seemingly included in SKT items even though I found it there in game. Is it specifically in another book's list, or one of those weird AL items that isn't in Beyond??
Also...side question....since WOTC owns you guys now....will you be putting in AL items like the|| red Dragon's thighbone || club from SKT? I really hate having to do custom items.
Also...Robe of Useful items seems to be glitched. I click "add to robe of useful items", type in "mastiff" and "riding horse", and it instead treats it as separate living things that I can put items into...and not under/into the robe...Do I haveto custom item the mastiffs as part of the robe?
Charms, along with boons, supernatural gifts, and other such rewards are not currently natively supported so you won't find them anywhere. However, it is hoped that the general feature system update will allow support of these options
As for AL stuff, if we could tell you it would have already been announced. The acquisition has only just happened so there's still a lot unfolding
fair, from my understanding the charm is a consumable item...but I don't know how it works detail wise. Thank you though.
It has limited use, but it's not an item, it's a charm
ah my apologies.
They're detailed here in the dungeon masters guide https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dmg/other-rewards#Charms
ty.
As for the Robe of Useful Items, I'm not sure what you mean by it being glitched and trying to add a mastiff or riding horse to it. Those are both creatures, not items, so they can't be stored in containers
They can however go in your extras section
ok. Like...from my understanding of the robe...you roll from a table and then get sticker things you can pull off to have things appear...if I wanted to mark having rolled a Mastiff and "add it to the robe" I guess I would need to do so custom wise.
Yes, you would
thanks. Sorry wasn't sure.
No need to apologise, here to answer questions!
Hi guys, I can't seem to download any books onto my android tablet in the dndbeyond app. I'd had a good number downloaded, but some needed an update apparently, ok'd them to do so and now none of them will stick. Tried clearing cache, deleting the app whole cloth and attempting downloads again, but no dice. Tried to find archived posts on the forums for any solutions, but not seeing any answers, just a few other troubleshooters with the same issues. Any help would be great on this
If you have it set to use an external storage try to toggle that.
It's all internal and I have no external cards in the device
My player is trying to make a character in dndbeyond but content sharing isn’t working although it’s enabled. Help!
Is their character already assigned to that campaign?
And if they go to this page, does it say their entitlements are in sync?
https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/marketplace
when using the encounter builder, is there a way to add combatants to combat once it has already been started?
Save it, go back to edit mode, then run it again.
What about during combat? Like if a lair action would add monsters or another one joins the fight?
Same answer.
Ok so you can't just add while it's going
Hey quick question is there a way to sort attack actions on the digital sheet, including all custom attack actions add to sheet?
Not directly, no. You could potentially rename everything — number them, for example — to get the order you want, though.
Thanks for that but unfortunately that does not work, it sorts all weapons attacks action first, then custom weapon attacks actions
The way spamandtuna specified works while it's going. The status of the encounter is saved and you can just hit edit, make some changes, save and then resume
You do!
Hey,how can i use the random encounter generator on ddb ?
i mean do i have to add every monster i think there is in my campaign and then the generator will do his things and make a good encounter ?
Currently the encounter builder doesn't support random encounter generation
oh ok
I did a quick Google to see if I could find anything, but at the moment when selecting bladesinging as a wizard’s arcane tradition it shows the source as SCAG even though I own the TCE content. Is this a bug or do I need to change a setting?
Sources are based on first publication rather than most recent
The exception is artificer
Ah. In that case were there any changes from the SCAG to the TCE version, and if so are they reflected on the character sheet?
Any updates in the TCOE version were applied as errata to the SCAG version. In short, they’re identical.
any chance I can clear the game log?
Currently there isn't a way to clear the game log but it has been requested before so I'm sure the devs are aware of the desire for such functionality.
Is for anyone else that the Pride Dice aren't showing up on their Profily under My Dice even though it says they are claimed?
Are your entitlements in sync? https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/marketplace
They are indeed. A few others of my D&D Friends have the same problem as well as they just reported to me
There seems to be an issue where even though I claimed Pride month's dice, they are not appearing in "my dice" settings.
Put in a report, will update when there's news.
Where can I do that?
I mean that I put in one.
oh
Thank you!
^^I just claimed mine and have same issue. I see the basic dice and my Astral set but not this month's even after refreshing the page, then restarting the browser... In the account, the Grant Type says "Product Key," which I've never seen before
Yes, it's being looked into. Still no update.
Ok, so i made a character for my friend, but its on my account, and i want him to join my campaign with that character, how do i make it so he has the characterr?
It may take until tomorrow for the dice as it's after hours.
Add it to the campaign and unassign it.
? could you explain that, and how do I give him the charactedr
When he joins the campaign he can select the unassigned character.
Join the campaign with it to add it first.
Open the campaign link in a new tab, import the newly-made character, unnasign it, when your firend joins the campaign, they can select that character as their character.
This appears to be solved.
I have a question about the Legendary Bundle, if there is a Mod that can help me.
If I already own some of the books, but then want to buy the bundle, is the price lower based on what I already own?
Correct, the bundle prices are reduced by the amount of content you already own
Thank you.
Hi. For some reason I cannot claim the dice of true color from the ddb website. It's telling me "Sorry, our service is currently not available in your region" 😦
Are you using an ad blocker or VPN? That can cause issues with normal DnDBeyond functionality
No, no VPN or adblocker is installed
And no 3rd-party antivirus software that may interfere with normal network traffic?
nothing
Okay - then in that case you can submit a ticket to customer support to see if they can kick things in the backend.
https://support.dndbeyond.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=602788
Please note that tickets are answered in the order they are received and if you submit a new ticket while you have an already open ticket it will push your tickets to the back of the line.
Yep, all of that is correct

That would be a discord issue rather than an issue we can resolve. You'd be best off checking discord support
Ok thanks
Hello, the homebrew spell I've created doesn't seem to show up for my player's Magical Secrets options, they have added it to their collection and all.
Can I ask for a bit of help?
Do they have Homebrew Content enabled for that character?
Aha! Let me check
Yes, they do apparently. It doesn't show up in the list

When I add a custom action to my character sheet, it seems to show up in other - is there a way to make it show up in my actions at the top?
Set the Activation Type to “Action”.
ahhh thank you
I'm still up, if anyone knows a solution to this one.
I got a warning for my name, could y’all tell me why
Hi there! this would really go over in #moderator-support but since we are here I will answer here 🙂 As part of our server rules for nicknames we ask that they be in plain text and be legible - special characters, symbols and shapes are not legible characters and make locating users difficult as well as potential other accessibility issues.
Hi! I have a friend who owns the physical books and would like to unlock content on Avrae. Will they be able to use their own books, or do they have to use the digital books?
For anything outside the free content in the Basic Rules, Avrae checks whether you have access to it in D&D Beyond. (They’ll need to link their DDB and Discord accounts by using !ddb)
If your friend has the physical books, they can recreate that content for free using DDB and Avrae’s homebrew tools (they’d need to do it in both).
Alternatively, your friend can buy just the parts they need, like a single subclass, and get full access to it in both systems. Whatever they spend gets credited toward the cost of the book itself, too.
But they have the physical books. Is there anyway they don't have to pay to get the content digitally? How do I recreate it with DDB?
There isn’t a way to “unlock” a physical book on DDB. They would have to create it from scratch using the site’s homebrew tools (which are the same tools used to build the official version).
Some of the custom aliases they want to use are locked behind liscened content. Is there anywaay to use them with D&D beyond tools?
They’d have to build it in DDB if they want it displayed on their character sheet, and build the automation in Avrae if they want it automated.
Ah, for that case specifically, they’d need access to the full book on DDB. Buying just a subclass or such won’t do the trick, I’m afraid.
So having the full book physically dosen't matter? They'd need to rebuy it digitally?
In order to use licensed aliases from the Avrae workshop, yes.
Or they can create their own aliases for free.
Buying individual content like a subclass would get them access to the official automation for that, but it won’t help with user-made aliases.
But in simplest terms: Avrae just doesn’t have any way to verify whether you own the physical book.
Actually, I just double-checked: it is possible for aliases to be tied to those individual content purchases. It just depends on how the alias author set things up.
Each command in the workshop should show what it requires (if anything).
This one, for example, only requires access to the Hex spell, not the entire PHB.

Hi everyone, am I blind or are the snippets gone from homebrew magical items? It's usually right above the description field...
Magic items don’t have snippets.
Snippets are what appears directly on the sheet, without clicking the action/feature/etc.
The Equipment tab only displays information when you click the item, which is the Description.
would you know how I could add a +2 on the DC of Breath Weapon in the magic item creation?
I don’t believe you can, automatically.
Generally speaking, the homebrew system is built to facilitate the official rules. AFAIK, that’s not something that’s done officially.
In this case, I’d just put it in the text description and then manually adjust the breath weapon directly on the character sheet.
(By clicking the attack and opening the Customize section in the sidebar.)
Ah. Apparently not. :/
You’d have to make a homebrew copy of that race and change it there, then, if you wanted it included.
I'm not seeing Echo Knight in my Martial Archetypes after buying it
What did you buy exactly?
I bought ther subclass, It works on one character, but not another...
If you say it works for one but not another, I would assume you have it working in a campaign that's sharing it but you say you bought it yourself...
exactly my confusion
maybe it's because I started making the character and purchased the subclass during creation, but I would have thought that that would correct itself after finalising the character and editing it later
created a bug somewhere
Have you enabled Critical Role content on the character sheet?
That's the problem! Thanks, I feel stupid now.
No worries, glad it is working for you! 🙂
@native briar To answer your question in a more suitable channel, yes. Images on unpublished homebrew can be seen by those who you share the homebrew with via campaign content sharing
I'm sure this has been asked a dozen times:
How do you give a character you have created to fellow subscriber. I built the character for a friend but want them to tweak it to be what they want.
Where would I ask a question like, a good not outdated tutorial to get music onto my discord, without me screen sharing. I want to add music to my sessions, and googling it is subscription based advertising influenced crap to sift through.
If you add the character to a campaign, you can unassign the character and your friend can join the campaign and claim the character
Thank you!
You could try asking in #dm-discussion or #dnd-discussion.
Hey! I think someone got a hold of my password and is making characters on my account. Is there a way to log out everyone out of my account except for me? I already changed the password to my google account linked to it
you're seeing characters that you didn't create? with names, races, etc?
Correct! Just one recently was made. I went through and deleted it, but I'm concerned now
I can do that, yea. DM me your forum username
Is there a way to check the name of the D&DBeyond account associated to your Discord account?
I do not know what account I have associated and otherwise cannot disassociate it from my account through the Beyond help
!ddb-debug
thanks 😄
Hey, I noticed the "locked content" article in the home page. I was wondering if that was there because it is a featured article about regionally locked content or if I'm seeing that because that article IS the regionally locked content so I just see that instead
The article is there for everyone explaining regionally locked content
no explanation of what is blocked and where?
No, because it's explanation of D&D Beyond/Wizards of the Coast policy on regionally locked content. What may or may not be locked and where will depend on the content itself
Oh ok. Is it possible to eventually consult whether some content is locked in our own country? European laws are pretty permissive so I'm positive this won't be an issue here, but I'm still curious.
What happens when something is regionally locked, does it simply disappear from the site or does it tell you?
If you encounter content that is locked in your region, the site will direct you to a clear message stating so
No worries
hey guys i bought these dice bet they arent doing the animations for me ? i dont know if its a setting thing or ? anyone able to helop thank you
sound also isnt working for them
all my other dice are rolling fine
Do you get the same issue in another browser, or on another device?
Why are critical role options available for building in character sheets but you can’t look at them like you can’t the other classes, sub classes, and spells in the compendium In the app
Ie. Oath of the Open Sea Paladin and Blood Hunter
Because the app only supports official game content.
ah yes its working when i try a different device it must just be my oldercomputer thank you
Is there a way to turn off rolling a crit auto doubling damage dice on the character sheet?
Hello, I'm trying to make a Beyond sheet for a level 3 dwarf and at level 3 I'm supposed to be able to choose the martial archetype (Champion, Battle Master, or Eldritch Knight) but for some reason the only one available in the drop down is Champion. Any idea why? I wanted to pick Eldritch Knight.
Champion is the free archetype that comes with the basic rules.
Eldritch Knight is from the Player's Handbook and needs to be bought on DDB
you can technically also use D&D Beyond's Homebrew tools to recreate Eldritch Knight for yourself. Its a bit complicated though, just as a warning
Oh, bummer. 😢
Thanks for the info. I assumed the regular options from the player's handbook would be included. It even specifically says you choose one of the 3 options right there but then only lets you choose champion. 🙃
FYI. you can buy the whole PHB but can also buy stuff like archetypes peacemeal. If you join a DDB campaign with someone who has bought things on DDB, they can share with other players
If you do buy just the subclass, the amount you spend gets credited toward the cost of the book itself, too.
So if I just buy the digital PHB on DDB I could share it with the rest of the players so we wouldn't have this problem again? (we each have our own physical PHB and are using that as our reference). Can you explain how exactly I could do that?
I'm just a player and and this is my 1st campaign but I've been trying to help the rest of the players by setting up a discord and encouraging DDB. There's a big price difference between $2 Eldritch Knight and $30 PHB but if it'll help everyone, I might bite the bullet. Most of the players it's our 1st campaign including for me and my SO but I'm not sure if we'll do more after because it's a large time commitment and it's not really my SO's thing even though I enjoy it so it's hard deciding if it's worth it.
to share content, one person in the group needs a dnd beyond master subscription (doesnt have to be the DM). I would suggest you all share the costs.
My homebrew cleric subclass is givng me the two errors "Contains non-english language" (it doesn't) and "too similar to trickery cleric" (the only shared ability is divine strike) -any ideas how i can fix that?
looking at my character sheet in DDB and i noticed on the main page there's " to hit " modifiers, I roll a d20 and add that to my roll to see if i hit or no?
Unless you're publishing(and you shouldn't unless its thoroughly playtested), you can just ignore that and use it as is
I'm trying to publish. Hence the request.
Correct!
I cant find where its been answered before, but I think if you hit save again, it forces it to recheck
Well that managed to make it get rid of the Trickery problem but it's still saying there's non-english language 🥴 I'm sitting here like "Is illusory not a word?" lol
That could also be a missing description, or one that is too short
The publishing system doesn't let you publish if any of the description fields aren't a suitable length
Hey guys, I submitted a ticket over how the Pride Month dice set was unclaimable due to being in a different region. Now it's giving me this explanation "This content is blocked in your region. You can read more about why this decision was made or you can message support@dndbeyond.com if you believe this was blocked in error."
This error also appears if a section doesn't have enough text, such as a description field, or if you've got placeholder text such as tbc
You'll have to wait for the support team to get back to you to confirm if there's been an error or not
How much is 'enough'? The capstone feature for the subclass is just a significant improvement to a prior feature, so it only has a few sentences, but every feature has its description and snippet sections filled.
I'd compare to an existing subclass
How viable is a DND moon druid/Ranger Beastmaster multiclass?

I'm prepping for a D&D Session, and I can't find the Mythic Dice set in My DIce... I used to have it, what happened?
Was it a subscription dice and do you still have one?
A follow up question, and I dont mean to be rude by asking this, are you signed into the correct account?
I am signed into the correct account. I can't find any record of paying for it so it must have been one that was free at one point, or came with a book. Here is the YT video from when it was released: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB3S8rrBrpU

Looks like the pigment pack is missing too.
Did they simply remove the dice from the Beta days?
No dice (or content) should be removed if you own them and your entitlements are in sync.
Check to see if your entitlements are in sync. If that's not the cause, time to submit a ticket to Customer Service: https://support.dndbeyond.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=602788
I don’t believe the Mythic dice were ever offered for free. Definitely not the pigment pack.
Yeah I don't recall either of those being offered for free either.
If i get the master tier sub will my players be able to use my unlocked books in the character builder also?
Yes, for any characters assigned to that campaign.
And any of their unlocked books will get shared with the group, too.
Thanks thats what i thought but wanted to double confirm.
This channel is for technical help with the site. You can use #looking-for-players for game advertisements. Just make sure to use the post template in the pinned messages there. (Anything not using the template gets removed.)
Is there a specific reason the genie warlock gets to choose all of the extra spells? Like if you choose efreeti you still get the other elements
System limitation.
Fair enough
Making a homebrew lizard race. How do I add Hunter's Lore to show the option to choose 2 from 5 available? I input all the options to select but only have the one drop down box, instead of 2 boxes
Copied the Lizard race (which I didn't do the first time) and found it under the modifier section for the trait which is listed as "choose a nature's Intuition Skill" for the Modifier Subtype. But it's not listed for a whole new race creation sheet?
for some reason, i cant get create a dnd character, it says “we rolled a 1 on our api check” and stuff
how do i fix this yall? 😭
Do you have a subscription? If not, you can only have 6 characters and you may be at the limit.
having some trouble accessing content - I don't own any of the books but a friend does, and has content sharing enabled for our campaign
if I try to look at the artificer class it brings me to the screen telling you to buy tasha's, but if I go to tasha's, it doesn't stop me
I've even got the two windows open side by side
hmm actually when I try to go to a specific page of tasha's it stops me as well
The Table of Contents of each book is available for everyone to see (it's like in a shop when you can look inside the cover to see what's in the book)
how could I check if content sharing is still enabled for that campaign?
we sort of finished it (haven't done a wrap up but it's been quite a while) so maybe the DM paused his subscription?
It seems like it, yes - I recommend asking them
I remember there was some screen where you could see shared content on campaigns though. I don't think he's around today so if I could check on my own that'd be better
btw, if I were to pay for a subscription but not buy any books, the DM could re-enable content sharing without paying for the subscription right?
or does the sub need to be from whoever is sharing?
It's not the DM that activates content sharing - it's the owner of the Master subscription.
Anyone, including players, can have a subscription and activate content sharing on a campaign 🙂
👍
DM got back to me, says he doesn't know why I don't have access
he's not at home right now so he can't check his account to see if the sub is still going and if content sharing is still enabled, though
Look for a box called “Character Levels Where Options Known”. If you want to give them two choices at level one, put 1,1 in that box.
How do I implement blessings or charms on D and D beyond character sheet?
Currently they're not natively supported and you'll instead have to implement a work around. A popular method is to use feats.
However the team is working on a system (the general features system) that will allow for robust support of blessings, charms, boons etc
Thank you. I will use a workaround for my players until then. Keep up the great work. Love what your all doing with D and D Beyond!
Is there a way to add spells to a class list without having to homebrew the class?
Not without homebrew of some kind. Doesn’t have to be the subclass, necessarily.
Alrighty! Thank you! I appreciate it, 😊
This would be a question for #dnd-rules
ah sorry
S'all good, don't worry about it
i get a +1 to wis and +2 to cha, so i added them manually when inputing into the boxes below the stats, is that correct or does the system add it by itself?
just took the dice rolls the way i wanted to place them and added manually but idk if it will add it by itself later and i'll have too much
(first time using this character builder so i'm not sure)
Hey y'all, question:
I'm playing around with a fighter/monk in Beyond.
Unarmed fighting style makes my unarmed strikes do 1d8.
Martial arts gives me an unarmed strike bonus action.
In the character sheet, that bonus action only does 1d4.
bug?
Feels like it's not applying Unarmed Fighting style to that bonus action unarmed strike.
@copper furnace The system will automatically add your ability score modifiers you get during character creation. On that screen you only want to input the ability scores you generate
I'll pass this along
happy to help😁 Also, the 1d4 damage you can do to a grappled target is generating as a No Action, so it's not making an attack to use. Much less important but maybe unintended.
That's additional damage so, like sneak attack, it's listed as no action (as it rides on another action/bonus action/reaction)
coo coo

Heya, so I've been trying to create a character lately but I keep getting hit with a 500 Server Error, and that's after I've already cleared my cache trying to fix it
ah the most vague of the server errors
"Something went wrong........... but we have no idea what"
Ikr?? It's so frustrating lol
Do you get the same issue in another browser, or on another device?
I tried doing it in another browser, but the same thing happened. Same for mobile
How many characters do you have already? Do you have a subscription?
I don't have a subscription, and I have six characters. Have I reached the max?
Yep. That would be the reason, then.
what do you see when you go to your "My Characters" page?
My character slots are all used
You’d need to remove an existing character first, or subscribe to create an unlimited number of characters.
For the Wild Beyond the Witchlight adventure, you cannot purchase only the fairy race for digital character creation.
(In previous content, I've been able to purchase just the race - like loxodon in Guildmasters' Guide to Ravnica, for example - rather than buying the full module.)
Could such a purchase be made possible for the fairy race in WBtW?
You can purchase it here in MotM instead (it’s the same in both books):
https://www.dndbeyond.com/marketplace/sourcebooks/mordenkainen-presents-monsters-of-the-multiverse
Aha, thank you!
so i know with sharing content with your campaign, you can restrict what official books are and aren't shared. but is there any way to do the same with homebrew content?
Content sharing lets you restrict compendium access (i.e. reading the book); it doesn’t restrict any character options.
But if you want better control over which options (whether homebrew or official) are available in a campaign, you can vote for that here:

Hey guys I got a question: I want to play as a tabaxi but the race option doesn’t show up, I have the required book but it doesn’t show up does anyone know what’s going on?
If you go here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/account/marketplace
Do you see a sync entitlements button at the top of the page?
This is what shows up
Okay, cool. Next step, which book are you accessing Tabaxi from, Volo's or Monster of the Multiverse?
Volo’s
Can you access this page: https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/vgtm/character-races#Tabaxi
Yep
And do you own the book, or is it being shared with you?
It’s being shared
Ah, are you making the character in the campaign through which the book is being shared?
Oooooh that makes more sense now, the character has to be in the campaign for me to able to use the races and such right?
Yep
Oooooh okay got u Tysm
No worries, glad to help

Heya all, quick question. I'm looking for a way to set someone's carrying capacity at 1200lb on their D&DBeyond character sheet
Regardless of stats
You currently cannot override carrying capacity to a fixed value as far as I'm aware
Perhaps a way to give a numerical bonus to carrying capacity? Or have it count off a different stat like INT?
As far as I know, the only thing that modifies carrying capacity is features like Powerful Build (that treats you as one size category larger). You could look at a race with Powerful Build (goliath or firbolg) or similar (Centaur) and see what modifiers they use
Oh ok, I working on a thing where carrying capacity is decided by INT instead of STR but I guess I can't get that to work
Thanks for the help regardless, is there a place to make suggestions for added features?
Yep, we have a feedback and suggestions section of the forum
I will however point out that D&D Beyonds focus is always on supporting the official rules and that's where all the homebrew modifiers come from
If it doesn't exist in some capacity in the official rules, it's unlikely to be a modifier within the homebrew tools
Isn't "Just Homebrew it" Wotc's official stance on 5e design? 😆
I'm not sure how that relates to what I was trying to explain?
That does not mean a given toolset has to support every idea that people come up with.
I was just pointing out the logic behind why certain modifiers do or do not exist within the homebrew tools
