I'm not getting mad. If you can see his second screenshot you know how it is. It's some kind of display bug; they have clearly added the text there.

Any time an unfathomably powerful entity sweeps in and offers godlike rewards in return for just a few teensy favors, it’s a scam. Unless it’s me. I’d never lie to you, reader dearest.
I see it from the cleric class page. I don't understand why you do not

As far as I can tell, the Free Rules on both the website and the mobile app as well as the class listing on both platforms provide the full description for the feature. I can't find any place where the description is not provided. If you have a link where this is happening, I can have the team take a look.
It is also possible it was fixed in the last few days.
First link does not have a description of what Improved Blessed Strikes does it just says "The option you chose for Blessed Strikes grows more powerful" then cuts straight Epic Boon.
The second link *does* have a description under it that describes it.
The third link I can't check.
Also it would be helpful for some of the people in the thread to presume good faith when someone having trouble posts an excerpt of what they're seeing that they aren't editing it & genuinely are experiencing a computer bug.
The common denominator seems to be whether one owns the PHB, but it doesn't seem like an intentional paywall or design as then neither page should have the information.
Do you own the book? I am just viewing the free rules. Though it would be pretty dumb to not print that in the free rules....
yes, I own the book. I looked at the free rules too, and it shows in there as well, but perhaps it's cross referencing from the PHB I own.

To test this theory, I just checked from a browser I never use, and was not logged in to DDB from. I confirmed I was not able to access the 2024 PHB. It showed the data as expected in the free rules.
Level 7: Blessed Strikes
Divine power infuses you in battle. You gain one of the following options of your choice (if you get either option from a Cleric subclass in an older book, use only the option you choose for this feature).
Divine Strike. Once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with an attack roll using a weapon, you can cause the target to take an extra 1d8 Necrotic or Radiant damage (your choice).
Potent Spellcasting. Add your Wisdom modifier to the damage you deal with any Cleric cantrip.
Level 10: Divine Intervention
You can call on your deity or pantheon to intervene on your behalf. As a Magic action, choose any Cleric spell of level 5 or lower that doesn’t require a Reaction to cast. As part of the same action, you cast that spell without expending a spell slot or needing Material components. You can’t use this feature again until you finish a Long Rest.
Level 14: Improved Blessed Strikes
The option you chose for Blessed Strikes grows more powerful.
Divine Strike. The extra damage of your Divine Strike increases to 2d8.
Potent Spellcasting. When you cast a Cleric cantrip and deal damage to a creature with it, you can give vitality to yourself or another creature within 60 feet of yourself, granting a number of Temporary Hit Points equal to twice your Wisdom modifier.

This is still not fixed, as I'm seeing the same thing and I haven't bought the new books yet. I'm quite disappointed that this has been an issue for this long and is still not resolved. There are a few other places where this happens with other classes as well.
The issue isn't about viewing free rules or phb, it also isn't a bug, it's an oversight.
The cleric page of the class descriptions section of the website (dndbeyond.com/classes/...etc) does not have the description. Both source books, the free-rules and the phb have the complete description (dndbeyond.com/sources/...etc)
Which likely means that the classes section of the website doesn't actually pull from the same internal source as the source books, which is why it's an oversight, because of course doing that would lead to discrepancies. Otherwise it could be pulling from the same source but with discrepancies between the html templates (or similar), which would also be an oversight.
Honestly I'm really surprised this hasn't been fixed yet, it's been 6 months since this post was made, and this is the kind of thing a basic editing pass should catch.
Edit: After discovering this I already see that the Divine Order has the exact same problem, I'm willing to bet the classes section of the website is full of holes like this.
3/4ths of a year later and it still hasn’t been fixed. I don’t think it’s a glitch I think it’s very intentional. It’s worth noting that they don’t tell you what the first level divine order feature does in the free rules either.
No it’s straight up just not there in the free version of the rules. That’s the whole reason I’m here.
3/4ths of a year later and I’m still having this issue.
Typical wizards of the coast. Can’t organize themselves worth shit. Neither of those issues is fixed and there are other similar issues in other class pages. It’s like they just don’t want people to use the website they paid a ridiculous amount of money to purchase.
No need to be so angry about a software issue. I see it and I don't have the phb. I simply went to the free rules and to cleric, and it's right there. It also tells you what divine order does:
Level 1: Divine Order
You have dedicated yourself to one of the following sacred roles of your choice.
Protector
Trained for battle, you gain proficiency with Martial weapons and training with Heavy armor.
Thaumaturge
You know one extra cantrip from the Cleric spell list. In addition, your mystical connection to the divine gives you a bonus to your Intelligence (Arcana or Religion) checks. The bonus equals your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1).
It is there if you actually go into the Free D&D Beyond Basic Rules, but if you go to the Class page it is absent. With the 5e classes, all of the information for the classes was there in the Class pages, really convenient! But now it is missing a lot of the information, and doesn't even contain a link to where it is located in the free rules or PHB.
Why even have the Class Pages if the information you need isn't there...?
P.S. I just checked the App, and it is the same thing there. In the Classes Listing, the information is missing, meaning that you have to actually go into the source book instead of using what is supposed to be the convenient lookup table.
Look in the class page, you know the thing most people use because it’s supposed to be a convenient quick way to find the rules you need for your class and subclass. It’s not there.
People who have purchased the books see something different than what the people using the basic free set up see. This argument has been going on for 8 months. There is no need to continue to get angry with one another. Just use the "Report a Bug" function so the issue can be addressed. In the meantime, the question has been answered.

So it can only be found by going into the actual PHB text and not in the Cleric Class page.
They should correct this bug, then.
