Could folders for characters be a thing? I have a huge list of characters I made for different reasons, and if I could organize them, that would be great.
This is on the short-term roadmap, yes. More updates to come. Thanks!
Could folders for characters be a thing? I have a huge list of characters I made for different reasons, and if I could organize them, that would be great.
This has been asked before. There features are in development.
Two things I noticed on my Mark of the Sentinel wizard in Beyond:
1, the race feature to cast shield once per short rest does not show up in actions (also not reactions) or spells. The only place where it shows up is under racial abilities, which is sort of hidden.
2, the abjurer's ability to conjure up a force field deserves its own place to jot down its hp. It's nice that beyond lets me check a box that I'm using it, and that it calculates its max hp, but the hp themselves don't show up. Because this pool of hp fluctuates so much, replenishing with abjuration castings, it would be nice to have a spot to keep score. And don't say I can keep score in the temp hp zone (I can, as a jury-rig solution), because the force field works apart from temp hp. Of course, it would be even greater if the pool would respond automatically to the casting of an abjuration spell. But that's probably a lot of code.
Also, something I noticed in a changeling character.
3, the Unsettling Visage power doesn't supply the full text. The text where the power makes a changeling's true race known to any observer within 30', has fallen off.
One thing I can't seem to find that would be really nice is an area that lists all Eldritch Invocations from all source material you have in one place. Maybe I'm just not finding it, but the only pages I can find that list Invocations are individual pages from the books. It would be nice to have a single page that lists the invocations from the PHB, XGTE, and any other source that gives them all in one place. I'm kinda surprised the Warlock class page doesn't do this already
The Warlock class page does already list all available Eldritch Invocations: under Class Features between Pact Magic at level 1 and Pact Boon at level 3. There is however no list on the app right now as far as I've seen.

"There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man."
Thanks for pointing that out MCerith. Not sure why I didn't see it before, just double checked and saw it. Maybe I missed it cause I was skimming the subclasses and i'm used to them being described below those? Either way, I probably should have taken a second look before posting. Thanks again.
It would be wonderful if you could see the breakup of a 'stat' on your character sheet by clicking it. For instance, Passive Perception would show the base equation (10 + Wisdom mod + proficiency), your numbers (with origins) (10 + 2 (wis mod) + 0 (not profiecient) + 1 (Insert Feat here)), as well as the description of what Passive Perception is.
This would be a huge help for teaching newer players the game and reminding experienced players what items/features are granting certain boni.
An export to PDF or print button on magic items would be great. I want to make item cards for my players, especially for the homebrew items I've made for them, and it would be so much easier if I could just click a button and get a nicely formatted version that can be printed out.
I'd even settle for being able to append /json to a magic item url, like you can do with character sheets, and writing my own tool for extracting the info and formatting it in a print-friendly way.

Awesome! I don't suppose there will be folders for homebrew creations, too? It would be really nice if I could organize those a bit.
I'm new to d&d beyond, but I try and teach new players the game. This seemed like a great tool to help me, but also help them. I'm also getting into Adventurer's league as both a player and DM. I'd really like to see something where I can set limits in a campaign or personal character creation for like a "phb+1" which is AL creation rules. Or a "phb+eberron" for an eberron campaign. Or even a basic "phb" only. I love the options, but it can be overwhelming for a new player who is already overwhelmed.
Could there be an option inplemented to search for spells that have a material component with a listed gp cost?
I feel this would be helpful for spellcasters (or just the curious) to be able to view such spells at a glance, especially if they are picking spells quickly during a session, rather than having to check each spell entry to figure this out.
Thanks for having a forum for us to pitch concepts and hope something is a worthwhile improvement! :-P
This probably won't make it to the roadmap anytime soon if it's not there already, but I would love to have more robust homebrew magic item editor. I was thinking about something along the lines of mult-line if-statements for more complex items. I was trying to import my item (https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-L7pKCxJPjNcnxysaLKW ) but there's no way to do it right now
This may or may not be on the road map, but is there a way for a Container Item to contain items in the equipment section? Even some sort of Hanging indent for the container equipment to see if something is in that container. Also, the ability to have items in a bag of holding, other extra dimensional container, or pack animal contain items that do not add to my personal weight, but add to their own personal weight calculation would be supper helpful.

Containers are in the works. You can currently, just set the weight to zero.

Can there be a check box for bonded weapons for Eldritch knights
Is their ever the chance to create a full homebrew class instead of just a sub class. Just curious?
The Warlock class page does already list all available Eldritch Invocations: under Class Features between Pact Magic at level 1 and Pact Boon at level 3. There is however no list on the app right now as far as I've seen.
"There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man."
This has been asked and is referenced in the summary document.
It's in the plans but nothing solid as of now.

Both of those features have been announced and are being tracked.

Could "bladesong", "rage", and other such class features be made into conditions, so that the calculations are made automatically?
Also... For thrown weapons that are (in melee) based on str, could they have a separate statline for when you throw them?
Temporary effects are on the roadmap and are tracked as part of the summary document: http://bit.ly/DNDBeyondUpdateQnA
Why do you need another line? Attack roll and damage stay the same and the range is stated.
