Hey Guys,

I think I just found a small bug within character creation.

My cleric with +3 con came out at level 1 with 15 hit points and everyone jokingly accused me of cheating cos the cleric has a d8 hit die and I couldn't explain why it was 15 HP not 11.

I looked into it and  it looks like if you set the Hit point Type as manual when initially setting up, it uses 12 as the rolled HP for level one.

I assume it's because at this point in the creation process you haven't selected a class yet, so it's defaulting to the Barbarian hit die (d12) as this is first in the list of classes.

To reproduce the issue:

1. Create a new character
2. Set Hit point type to manual
3. Go through other steps, select cleric (or presumably any class that has less than a d12 hit die)
4. Click Manage HP
5. Rolled HP will show as 12.

Your assumption about it defaulting to the Barbarian’s d12 is correct. It’s a known problem, has been for the last 7 years. Maybe they’ll get around to fixing it in the next 7, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

Hahaha a man can dream, thanks for the response and confirming I'm not crazy IamSposta!

Not sure it applies in this case, but I’m happy to help.
