Badeye will be hosting the next Developer Stream on Friday the 20th of October. This stream will provide updates from the D&D Beyond team and allow you to have your questions answered. Get info straight from the Beholder's mouth!
Please post questions you would like Badeye to answer in the thread below. We will be collating these, and Badeye will do his best to answer as many questions from the forums as well as Twitch Chat.
Miss out on September's Developer Stream? Watch below!
Jeremy Crawford, hallowed be his name, said recently on twitter that when the Revised Ranger is finished, it will take the form of a number of alternate features that the ranger can take. I know it's a long way off, but will you guys be working with Wizards to make sure that these alternate features are built in to your character builder in a user-friendly way?
It would be cool to get an ETA on the improved character sheet view; The prototype looked really cool and me and my players can not wait!
+1 to this. This is the "big thing" I'm really keen to know about and am waiting for. The current format leaves a lot to be desired. Mounts, pets, bags, auto-calculation for money in/out, greater ease of navigation/reference, etc.
Also, an entire extra "sheet" or page solely devoted to character notes would be nice.
And, of course, campaign management. A relatively simple improvement would have each campaign act more like a forum, especially in regards to tooltips and formatting.
Yeah what I'm hoping from this tool is a log of all transactions e.g. an account statement for your money, AL validation, finalized character sheets with pets, inventory management, wildshape and animal companions. I feel that a complete char sheet should take precedence over any other feature.
Any progress on DM tools such as the campaign builder? Other things like initiative/encounter tracker?
Is there any chance we could see popular 3rd party subclasses such as the Gunslinger? I know that the chance of including homebrew subclasses is rather complicated.
Is the rating system for the homebrew going to be improved? Views are easily increased and don't share valuable information. Adds do provide more valuable information, but they are limited to a few number of people and not frequently used.

The Grung are available as a player race on dmsguild as "One Grung Above" with all of its proceeds going to Extra Life.
Is there any chance DnDBeyond would get Grung as a race with its proceeds going to Extra Life as well, much like the Tortle Package?
Even if it isn't AL legal, I would love to have Grung built into the Character Builder! Plus I could give to charity! It is a win-win!
Oh yeah, time to begin grung fu fighting.
Is it always going to be monks?
I mean, the poison on touch/weapon mechanic is so nice with monk attacks. Use a shortsword/dagger + unarmed strike at level 5 = 2 con saves for poisoned condition + 1-2 con saves for up to 4d4 extra damage.
Hail Travellers, and well met!

Wary the wizard who focuses on homebrew, for he can create nightmares that you wouldn't even dream of
I’d love an update on plans for improved character PDF export.
What are the plans for improving the DM tools on the site? Is there a timeline for an encounter builder?
Thanks!

Third party integration: Roll20, FG, Talespire?
Is there any chance of a lifetime subscription?

What's the progress on the mobile apps?
How are the talks about third party publishers being included going (frog god games, kobold press etc) maybe a partnership with dms guild?

With regards to campaigns, is it in the plans to:
Give players the ability to at least see the sheets of other players in the campaign.
Allow the DM to build characters for other players, and assign them.
Reassign a different DM.
thanks!
