Rules LinkWhen creating encounters in Maps, the listed Difficulty is not calculating correctly based on the XP Budgets listed in the 2024 DM Guide.
Example: The XP Budgets in the 2024 DM's Guide for four 1st level characters are:
In Maps, for the same group of characters, the Difficulty is being calculated as follows:
According to the DM's Guide, each Difficulty should be calculated by "spending" as much of your XP budget as you can without going over.
I’d recommend using the Feedback button inside Maps itself for any Maps feedback. That way it will go directly to the Maps team.

Yep, it's been busted since they created it. They're using the maximum as a minimum instead. I keep posting it on Feedback every week or two.
