I'm currently trying to generate a homebrew item and have a fairly detailed picture in my mind.
However, I've been struggling with the item creator for over an hour now and I cannot seem to make it work as intended.
Adding modifiers (e.g. Versatile, then Piercing damage, then Slashing damage) Doesn't do anything for the weapon in the inventory. It just mentions that it has all these things, but you don't see the selected dice anywhere.
I chose the dagger as a base, but found no option to change the damage type, the range, etc.
It would be much simpler if we could select a template, then change all the properties one after another the way they are listed on the item description.
For example: you pick the spear as a template, then you get to change the different stats, such as reach, range, damage die, etc.
Maybe I'm just too incompetent and couldn't find it yet. Is there a tutorial on how to create magic weapons anywhere?
It is not currently possible to change base weapon damage dice or ranges.
As for adding weapon properties such as Versatile, or changing the type of damage a weapon deals, after you add anything to, change anything on, or remove anything from any homebrew, you MUST re-save the entire thing using the main [SAVE CHANGES] button under Basic Information or the system won’t pick up your changes. After that it can sometimes take up to 20 minutes for those changes to push through to the character builder/sheet.
