I have a 9th level fathomless warlock and several spells are missing from the spells I can know
Specifically dnd beyond does not let me have bigbys hand, a spell given by said subclass. How do I add it?
No I'm using the 2014 one.
And it should be its part of the player handbook and im on a campaign with a dm with most of the books.
The issue is that it comes with the caviat (only in the form of a tentacle) and I believe that dnd beyond may be looking for that full term of bigbys hand (only in the form of a tentacle) instead of the proper spell name due to bad programing

ModeratorHave you purchased the 2014 PHB? Or is your character assigned to a campaign where that spell is shared with you?

Please reread my post
The full term is "Bigbys hand (in the form of a tentacle)"
As in that whole clause is one type line. I think dnd beyond is trying to search for the whole phase rather than the actually spell Bigbys hand
As per my first reply yes, my dm has most of the books including players hand book. I wouldnt be able to be a fathom warlock fire genasi without my dm having most of the books.
This seems to be a programing issue
I just looked on an old Fathomless warlock I had. Leveled them up to 9, and Bigby's Hand appears just fine on their list of knowable spells

ModeratorThe spells are not added by interpreting the text in that table. If you're not seeing Bigby's Hand, it's because you don't have access to that spell in that campaign. This is working as intended.
Imagine you've purchased a physical copy of TCOE, and you've got the pages that says a Fathomless Warlock has those spells. You then need to also have the 2014 PHB to actually get the details for the spells themselves. On D&D Beyond, most of those spells are included in the free Basic Rules, so you can use those ones even without the PHB. Bigby's Hand simply isn't one of those spells -- at least not under that name. You could make a homebrew copy of that subclass and switch it to Arcane Hand if you prefer.
