I have a level 3 D14 shadow monk on DnD Beyond that I am currently playing in an in person campaign for a first time DM. I noticed that the unarmed strike is showing a d6 for damage. This is obviously a D24 rules forced upon me and the character. This is nonsense. I have legacy rules turned on and the legacy shadow monk chosen as the class. It even mentions d4 in the class feature description. Yet, when the character builder is up and in use we are back to a d6. Ridiculous. When I chose a wizard class I don't see eldritch blast as a cantrip choice. When I chose war cleric I don't see cure wounds as an always prepared spell. Why can't this simple selection filtering exist for all of the options? Luckily I am the group's rules nerd that caught it and was able to make a work around via making a custom action and bonus action. A work around that I will have to update at each tier of play. Please fix this. DnD Beyond is supposed to simplify, clarify, and speed up playing the game. Not require 10+ years of nerdy game rules knowledge to catch, recall, care, and take the time to hack during a session. I might as well use a pencil and paper. Which, for the record, I am still in favor of.
Martial Arts. We don't have a method of disambiguating the Martial Arts granted by the 2014 Monk and the one from the 2024 Monk. As such, all Monks will temporarily match the 2024 Monk's Martial Arts Die until we’re able to fix this.

Thanks. I'm no computer person, but this seems like BS to me. If a person selects D14 monk and NOT D24 monk, is that not method enough for filtering out the two options from one another. It works for every other class, subclass, weapon, spell, and such. It smells intentional to me.

There is no purpose for it to be intentional, it doesn't serve D&D Beyond in any way. And as a computer person who has been doing web development, on and off, for almost 30 years: it is not as simple as you think it is.

Simple or not, I've always found the "our system doesn't support this" replies a bit annoying. It's not like they're relying on some third party platform here, dndbeyond made the system and it's up to them to fix it.

As an end user I'll admit "simple" is relative. If it was a PEBSAC issue it would be one thing. But it worked, and now it doesn't.
