Whenever my DM gives us items I have to make it as a "magical weapon" which is ok cause I can just make it common, but one problem I have is I can't really make new weapons. I have to use the base of an existing weapon with no way to swap properties.
My current example is I got a katana that is basically a longsword that crits on 19's but the trade off is it isn't versitile, but strictly 2 handed. Will there be future updates to let us modify equipment or even add/delete properties on existing equipment? Or will I have have to have it as text on a side note because my character sheet gives me false information?
There are no current plans to support homebrew base items/weapons.
You can Customize, however, existing items/weapons on the character sheet to make notes and change some characteristic.Click on the weapon on the Attack section, then Customize.
I don't know why base weapon modification/homebrew isn't planned to be supported. It is clearly an intended homebrew option by WotC as much as magic items are.
I'd even be fine not being able to make a new base weapon as long as I can add and (just as importantly) remove weapon properties from magic weapons.
Yes you can customize some things, but not everything including important aspects like reach. I guess it isn't too big of a deal but it is a feature I would love to see as the site progresses!
