The move over view is a fantastic addition. I may have missed it but how do you turn the text into the link, as some people are doing?
I know this is most likely to early to deal with but I would like to put it out now. I have bought a lot of the hard covers and have never run any of the adventures, using them for the monsters and magic items in the back. When it comes to the buying add ons it would be great if we were able to just buy the monsters and magic items from the book rather than the whole adventure, even if it was for half the price.
Some tabs in this section could be added to allow you to put your players level and how many players you have in so this section could generate enemies suitable for a Dm's players
Can we get a way to open up the dedicated page for a monster/spell/item straight from the table (without first opening the 'drop-down' and then clicking the 'view monster/etc page' button)? On Desktop, I'd have thought that middle-clicking (which normally opens a link in a new page) would do that, but it doesn't.
I think if you gave the option to list the monsters like this so that way you could have an easy to reference custom list of monsters that the DM chose for each battle, it would make the battles a lot smoother and faster. Then, if you click on a card more detailed information would pop up about that monster. Not that you need to do it exactly like this, but basically, a custom list that is easily created, changed and viewed. Attractive always helps.
Here is what I am talking about:
This is a great idea and would save lots of prep time. This would probably be the most important feature to me as a DM, as it would greatly simplify preparing for and running combat.
I like the layout of the organization and presentation of the monster list. The ordering by CR and monster type filters is especially useful for encounter building.
It may have already been mentioned, but having an advanced filter search option for languages would be helpful. Sometimes I want to provide monsters that a certain player or multiple players can possibly speak to.
The cloud giant stat block seems to have some formatting issues in the "Keen Smell" section. It seems that the "Innate Spellcasting" section got formatted into the previous "Keen Smell" section.

Also, the cloud giant's alignment can be neutral evil in addition to neutral good. Half the time they're good, half the time they're evil.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.
Also it doesn't seem that the Fire Snake currently comes up when you filter to show Elementals.
Fire Snake is not included in the SRD, where as Salamander is. Fire Snakes should be included once out of Beta and the option to purchase/subscribe to the MM is there.
Just wanna point out that stats for blights (needle, twig and vine) are not showing on the monster lists.
Blights are not found in the SRD - and therefore not included in the Beta.
SRD does not equal Monster Manual. It is a small version offered free by WotC, so not everything that is in the Core Rulebooks will be found in here until we can purchase/subscribe to get all of the additional monsters added in.

The pack tactics for lions is listed both under keen smell AND as its own point.

For Sprites, the desc on Invisibility says that they might be casting spells, but there's no mention of what spells a sprite would have.
To be more clear, the desc should specify that spells would only be for a named NPC or a PC, not just any general sprite.
Chandelierianism: Not just for interns anymore.
People were mad about the beholder question over and over again so I thought I would ask a new one. I mea the save isn't listed.

Awesome. Just awesome. Thanks for the update.

Wary the wizard who focuses on homebrew, for he can create nightmares that you wouldn't even dream of

The whole Beyond resource is excellent so far. An amazing development!
Firstly general feedback.The whole site is working really well on my mobile phone (android).
Monster manual specific - the special abilities (eg senses like darkvision) like to the very long info page - https://www.dndbeyond.com/compendium/rules/basic-rules/running-the-game/monster-statistics. Would be better if it jumped straight to the relevant sub section.
Also agree it would be great to be able to add personal tags so you could then pull together your own custom lists using the filters.
Looking forward to the next step in the beta.
