First, let me preface that I don't know how forums generally work, but I'll do my best. It feels like D&D beyond is heavily tailored to players and not DMs which is sad. I'm a busy person, but I love this game and i try my best to prep a good session, but somehow i fall short at times. I'm not saying, my suggestions will work for everyone especially homebrew stuff, but for people like me who run adventure modules from D&D. I believe these could work for busy DMs.
Issues:
My Campaigns
It feels like its not being worked on for a long while now. There a are two links to create a campaign, which is weird, The notes, both public and private, dice roller and rollable dice buttons don't seem to do anything, at least for me.
I would like a guide for how devs intended it to work because i would like for D&D beyond to be a one stop shop for all my sessions weather virtual or in person I would like to use it.
My Encounters
I don't have an issue with My Encounters as of yet, because its in beta I'm not to harsh on it, but I do have a suggestion. If possible, could the devs add adventure modules to My encounters for example say a DM is running Dragon Heist it would be cool if all the encounters, at the very least combat encounters, would be pre-generated and a click away. The books generally tell us what encounters there will be in each adventure.
Final suggestion
Dynamic/interactive maps nearly all maps in D&D have rooms and creatures or loot in those rooms if we have maps that we could hover over and see what the book tells us is in that room it save a lot of prep time and DM guilt (i.e. forgot to tell them about loot or magic items).
For those who took the time and read my thread, Thank you.
