When will the encounter Builder be past beta, as an estimation? (I haven't been a user for long enough to know when it was made in alpha or how fast the software engineers can update this, if an update is being worked on)
Genuine question, try not to use Ad Hominem if my opinion differs from yours (same for any discussion).

Check out Monach of the Realms forum game!As Djinni you'll know me, for I am your king. From void I have shaped thee, I've shaped everything. But please do not kneel, just look and behold, I rule you to heal and share stories untold. The mask that I wear is a crude one of glass, so your soul will repair if you glance at me fast. You'll pray that you know me, and I'll let your heart ring. I'm as strong as the world tree and I'll make your heart sing.
"At this time, the Encounters (Beta) tool will remain available and continue to use the encounter rules outlined in the 2014 Dungeon Masters Guide. No changes to this tool are currently planned."
So it seems like the Encounter tools is not being further developed.

It seems ridiculous they wouldn't be doing them side by side. I use the encounters tool because it's great for my in person games. Of the many ways D&D Beyond has gone in directions that players are unhappy with, this is just another disappointment.
That is just sad. I use encounter to build and track initiatives and such, but we prefer to use our own minifigures and such. I really hope they will reconsider this. I dont need the encounter tool to be fully integrated in maps. It should be possible to do both.
Ouch. Encounters and Character sheets is why I subscribe. I have no interest in a VTT that's 5 years or more behind everyone else and probably always will be.
Bumping the thread because I'm in the same boat. When I ran everything virtual during the pandemic Maps were great, but now we are back in person and I really just want encounter building. I don't need or want map functionality.

Maps has an encounter builder with the new rules built in.
