Share Your Dice Results with the Brand New Game Log!
We’re excited to announce that D&D Beyond users (desktop AND mobile app) can now share their dice roll results with other players in their campaigns. Celebrate your high rolls in real time with your friends, even if you aren’t in the same room!
Within the Game Log, you’ll see what action you or your campaign members rolled, the result of the roll plus any modifiers, and a visual of the dice set used to roll. That’s right – you can now let your party members see your character’s personality roll through with the dice set you’ve enabled!
You can find the Game Log on the character sheet of a character that’s in a campaign, on a campaign’s main page, and within Encounters.

To celebrate this new feature and to help you build your digital dice collection to show off in the Game Log, we have a few dice offers this month.

First, thanks for this. The new Everlasting Rime dice are literally cool! 😉
Second, as others have suggested, it would be nice if there was a way to toggle the Game Log feature on and off. It's cool to have on D&D night but if I'm experimenting with my character sheet mid-week, I don't want those test rolls to go to the game log.
Thanks again!
This is really cool! Now if only there was a way to do the same with inventory changes, that would be perfect!
Dear D&D Beyond Team,
I absolutely love this feature, but I need it to be separate from the spell descriptions, feature descriptions on the right. If this can stack below the other information or can be anchored to the left side of the screen with the other info anchored to the right it would make my life so much easier.
Thank you for continuing to work on new features,
Happy Fan
This is actually really cool
Would be good if the DM could use the monster stat blocks in the Combat Tracker the same way, ie; clicking on an attack roll on the stat block instead of doing a manual roll.
if you play with people you can trust you don't have to worry about cheating rolls. If you end up using the roll log, try explaining that to your group that that is why you are having to use it. Might be time to find a better group to play with
Since the addition of the Game Log, on the Player app on a tablet (Samsung S6 Lite) in the landscape the result doesn't show? It seems to be cut off. Its fine in the Portrait view.
DM's would love to be considered when new features are added. Perhaps we don't want ALL dice rolls to be viewed by everyone "at the table" (or virtual table). Please, please consider DM options when incorporating new features. We are probably not only your biggest sponsors but also bring more players (and potential DMs) to your platform. As a DM over the past year or so I have personally introduced over 100 new users to your system. This is not a complaint, your system is outstanding, simply a request. See my earlier posts on this new feature for more DM option requests regarding the dice roller. I feel that new features should bring more benefits than problems to DMs.
Not close enough, but I'm with you!
AntiCheatware, huh? LOL
nice
So how do we go about rolling for monsters or entering manually? I love it for players but that's only half the fight.
how is it a scam? It is very luxury items on a dnd online site. It may way overpriced and may be only for their whales but how is it a scam when they are upfront on how much and what it is and that is what they give you.
no, their are free dice to roll when googling but 1 different look and I think slightly different animations. 2 not linked character sheet or in future other features.
or it is a new group or player(s).
Question is can this log be viewed in it's own window? Be nice to have for recording as it's own window. I plan to open the campaign in a window and set OBS to record a box over the rolls for now.
Looks nice. Works great. Though if you’re already using Roll20 and have the Crome plug-in “Beyond 20” running, the same info is already showing in your Roll20 chat. I like the different dice, but if they don’t actually roll on other people’s screen, it is just a fun thing to see when you roll. Luckily for them, I’m someone that likes to see cool dice roll around my screen. The dice that comes with subscription is perfect for our frozen sick campaign we are running today.
The new everlasting rime dice worked for me today.
how do i turn off the game log?
This opens up the possibility to use the DDB Player app on an iPad/iPhone and still get the stats to roll20. Since the rolls are somehow shared to a server it should be able to get to roll20 as well if someone can figure it out.
