In the character builder, heavy Mithral Armors (Plate, Chain, and Splint) have strength requirements. This causes a character who equips the armor without meeting the strength requirement to have their speed reduced. The information for Mithral Armor in the rules database is correct, it is just an error with the character builder.
TO REPLICATE: Using the Character Builder, make a character with a strength score lower than the requirements (13 is the lowest requirement) and add Mithral Armor to the character. Equip the armor and notice that speed drops by 10 feet.
When viewing your character, could you please go to the dropdown from their name, and select "Preferences"? In the sidebar there you can scroll down to the bottom, where the final option will be character privacy. Beneath that option do you have any further text noting a sheet version? If so, what does it say there?
I checked on multiple browsers/devices just to make sure as well as looking at a newly created character and one made almost a year ago. I don't have an text noting sheet versions in the the area specified on either sheet. I also poked around in the edit tolls as well, but found no note of sheet version.
Thank you, I appreciate your thorough check! Could you provide a link to an affected character of your's, and myself or another forum moderator will take a look. :)
Well now I'm perplexed.The character I was using as a test can be found at: https://ddb.ac/characters/26847792/ISeb7W but the problem seems to have resolved in the two days since I last posted/checked. I wonder if it was my browser cache since that was the only thing I altered this morning on start-up. I guess the Law of "turn it off and turn it on again" still holds true!
