It would be nice to be able to favorite creatures (wild shapes) and then be able to filter them. This would allow one to keep track of all learned wild shapes without cluttering the list all the time.
I've only added beasts to my Creatures panel that my druid has learned. I don't see the problem?
Well depending on how many wild shapes your druid learns, this list can get pretty long. :-)
Ah I see what you mean... one solution in the mean time would be to add them to Misc category, then you could just flick to that tab for your favourites?
I would like to see items with charges added to the Long Rest tool (or short rest if applicable). It can be an optional addition that allows recovery of charges and shows how many charges can be recovered. i.e. 1d6+4 charges as well as the time frame for recovery (Dawn, Midnight...). This way, if the time frame happens during the long rest, the charge recovery can be rolled in the same window. It is also a nice reminder to do it.
I suggest adding an extra filter in the Spells section to filter spells by their components. It is useful in situations where one or more components are impossible to use, like Verbal components in an area under a Silence spell or when your character is restrained and cannot perform Somatic components.

This was suggested as soon as they brought out filters for spells months ago, a pretty glaring omission. It would probably be the most useful filter, far moreso than narrowing down to just Concentration spells which gets its own tab for some baffling reason. Thanks for the reminder though, I really hope they’re keeping track of these kinds of logical suggestions that could be implemented a lot faster than the bigger features on the roadmap.

I must be not understanding this request, as there is already a filter for VSM in the advanced filters. What am I missing?

I would even go further, and ask for filter for spells that DON'T need a specific component or concentration. It's a more common situation that you cannot use a spell with a certain component, or one that required concentration, than being able to use a spell that needs concentration or a certain component...

--[ Natural 20 - that's how I roll! ]-- We've stopped this OGL madness, but stay vigilant, they tried it once, they can try it again.
For those of us who are unlimited character slot subscribers and are addicted to making characters. On the "My Characters" page could we add a feature to simply "pin" a few characters so they remain at the top of the page, say those in active campaigns, or ones we are currently theory-crafting etc?

Using multiple tabs would work for keeping track of all of them and having one shorter list with the ones I usually use. The one drawback is that beasts that are not under “wildshape” won’t have the characters mental stats and proficiencies.

They are currently working in some mechanism for organising characters. In the mean time, you can use Beyond Help to make folders.
I know. I recently passed 20 characters. And I'm not the worst "offender" I know.

^ This is exactly how it should have worked from the outset. Being able to exclude certain ranges might also be useful.

In general, having a "negation flag" on all filter values (not just spells) would be great, i.e. NOT humanoid, NOT legendary, NOT arctic...
Sorry to drone on about this, but when are you devs going to get around to finishing the sidebars for the Action panel? Filcat?
Yet again I’m sure it would have prevented Matt having to look up and explain an ability to his players on CR, for instance with Taliesin using Hidden Step this week. The summary you provide on the panel itself is technically correct but terrible for comprehension: “As a bonus action, turn invisible until the start of your next turn, you attack, deal damage, or force a saving throw once per short rest.” The sidebar should have the WotC description, but is empty, as it is for so many other abilities. And again, every ability still says “casting time” whether it is a spell or not.
I wish for eladrin there was a way to mark what season you are, if I forget to write it down after a long rest its hard to remember in the next session. Also why can't I select a season trait and flaw? would be nice if you could choose one for each season and have it change to correspond to my season.

Good point. OK another workaround... add a space, asterisk or the like before the creature name under Customise. Spaces and some symbols will push that entry to the top of the list. Not perfect, but still easier for keeping your go-to creatures handy.

I like it. Using an asterisk moves the creatures to the top of the list. I guess this will be the best workaround for now. Thanks for your input.

You're welcome. I do the same thing for equipment I want to keep at the top of the list.

This has been on the list, but it's a big list. Looks like the permanent fix is queued up for this week, so it won't be an issue too much longer.
