Can anyone help me figure out why a background-specific table isn't showing up on my Character Builds.
Example: I have created a background for Charlatan. It has something called Favorite Schemes. I've created that as a Background Specific Table, but when I go to select that background on my character build out it's nowhere to be found.
As of right now, we don’t have those in the builder yet like we do for the suggested characteristics. We decided to make the creation form I put them now so you won’t have to go back and update the background once we do pull them into the builder.
Sorry, autocorrect from phone. Was trying to say we decided to go ahead and set the form up to have you enter the individual records for background specific tables so that the data is already in the correct format once we add it to the character builder.
Ahh gotcha, and ya, damn autocorrect. That makes sense.
So, using that same example as above with Charlatan. I just signed up for your Master Tier and I purchased the PHB, DMG, MM and Storm Kings Thunder. I just shared that content with my campaign members. But again, selecting Charlatan using the PHB background that you guys have imported it still isn't showing that crucial piece of information. Does that text still fall under the "Background-Specific Table" parameters?
Not an issue if it does, I just want to make sure we're seeing what we're supposed to be seeing.
I'm actually not sure why this is an issue. Background specific tables have no use, right? I suppose there are variants, but those are a separate thing. It is kind of weird that they don't have them in the builder, but again, no purpose.
I agree. It "seems" simple enough to pull the charts over if the data is there (and yes, I know it's much more difficult on the backend... lol). I know I was personally really confused after spending a couple hours on ironing out a custom homebrew background, and then being unable to "find" the Background Specific information or table, even during the character builder. You would think it would AT LEAST be visible there... All that extra background information only shows up when viewing the background itself outside of the character builder, and that's kind of frustrating for sure. For a lot of backgrounds, this information really helps fill in crucial details. Shouldn't need to copy/paste into the character sheet from outside of the character sheet. :-)
In any regards, I still love everything they implement, but I would definitely keep this on the "need to add" features!

What am I missing?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply.
I understand the first sentence you wrote, but I'm missing what you are saying in the second sentence. Can you clarify that for me?
Thanks

It does. We still have an open task to pull that table data into the character builder from all backgrounds.

Perfect k.

It is done.
