I'm trying to equip one of my characters with a scimitar in the DnDBeyond character builder, but it's not showing up in the search. I've checked in the database, and scimitars are included in basic rules, and I have other characters already outfitted with scimitars. Why can't I find the base scimitar and equip it?
Scimitars are Martial weapons. If you aren't proficient with Scimitars or Martial weapons, you won't be able to find them or equip them. If it's that important that you have one, you can ask your DM to add it for you, as they don't have the same restriction.

Is your character proficient with the scimitar? If not, and you have the “Proficiant” box checked it won’t show up.
