Hi, I think I already asked for this years ago (and still waiting), and I don't think I'm the only one who want/need this: conversion from imperial to metric.
The majority of the world population is using metric system (and I guess the the majority of the players and DMs).
Is that so hard? Because every app I have on my phone and/or tablet has it but DDB, and I'm very disappointed about it.
Unfortunately, I don't think this is something DDB can do anything about. They're obligated to keep the material exactly as described... and apparently, for English readers, WotC has chosen to ONLY use imperial. And no mixing languages! (I own the English-language PHB on here, and cannot view the Italian one beyond the table of contents. I know that at least the German PHB makes use of meters instead of feet, so alternative measurements exist, they're just... not available to us.)
Wizards of the Coast are the ones you'll likely have to bring your complaint to first.
The reason you cannot view the Italian PHB beyond the table of contents is likely because you have not purchased the Italian compendium. Everyone can view the table of contents of a realised book regardless of if they own it or not, but the IT PHB is a separate purchase.
I own the Italian PHB, but cannot see It on DDB app. Is only available on web. As DM is not an a problem at all (I prepare my sessions in advance), but as player I'm using the character sheet on DDB app, and would be nice to have at least the conversion there (sometimes after 4/5h of gameplay and a few beers is not so easy make a conversion on the fly).
It would be great if the campaign page got a little more love. Maybe a portion for a campaign chat room? And a section to post pictures for a world map, or a session page to divide notes, I know dms can make public notes but it would be excellent for players to have that same feature.
I'd love a "Unique" toggle on the monster search (like for Legendary and Mythic), so that I can weed out monsters which are individuals (like NPCs and Demon Princes).
buying all character option cost you the same as the book itself. basically the way they have set it up is, you get free content if you buy all the options.
don't believe me... let's take the PHB... - 29,99$ total, 4,99$ for the spells. 2,99$ for the sub races. 3,99$ for the feats. 9,99$ for the sub classes.3,99$ for all background options. let me do the math here... 5+3=8 then 8+4 = 12, then 12 +10= 22 then 22+4=26 ! thats only 3$ for the content which is normally sold for 10$. honestly at that point, just buy the whole thing. you get cool artwork, you get actual name ideas, you get lore. then there is the fact that buying a bundle gives you discounts for future buying.
i wanted to buy only the options long ago... but after calculating everything... its not worth it.
as for books they should add to that, i agree to that much... they should update the bundle. they haven't touched those for a long time. and the bundle is bullshit now that they removed xanathars and mordenkainen. my problem is for books like the critical role books, or the MTG books. those have no real doing with d&d, they are different settings. they should definitely not be part of that bundle. but they could make bundles for each settings. i agree to that much !
you're missing the fact that I don't want all the extra stuff. I don't care about value for money acquiring extra lore or settings.
as it stands, many of the classes, races, subclasses and stuff are buried across multiple source books, not included in the player bundle and it would be much nicer if there was just a way on this site to ignore the source books themselves and just purchase all the character-builder options in one go. including the critical roles bits. like search "character creation options" as part of the store front and pick which ones you want, rather than it all being gated behind a flowchart of book titles. you can purchase them as separate features already, why not make them groupable is my question really. it would be so much more convenient.
It would be nice to get a new class maker in homebrew. If not, at least let us override existing class features with subclass features so we can cheat our way to a new class.

I think this comes under the Generic feature system they're working on, which will overhaul a lot of the site mechanics
Feature request: In the character sheet campaign tab where you can see all the PCs in your party can there be an option to show their current HP like it does in the mobile app?
I too want this. In the meantime, I am uising the "D&D Beyond Campaign DM Screen" Chrome extension. Sadly Google removed it from the Crome store for violating their mysterious policy. Keep an eye out, hopefully it'll show back up soon.
Not sure if it's been mentioned I would like an index of all maps and artwork in the book. I rarely use the entire book but sometimes just like to rekey maps for my own game. And pouring over each book looking for the right map is a hassle.
As discussed in some of the recent dev updates, we now have a portal for you to share and vote for feature requests on D&D Beyond. Voting on the shared requests will help us prioritize the roadmap in 2019 and beyond.
Keep in mind this is one input - we will use the feedback we receive from all sources to make the calls on what we work on, but this is a great place to let your voice be heard.
NOTE: The portal is available through our support platform (Zendesk) and requires a registered Zendesk account to use. Please keep in mind that this is only one input that we use to prioritize the backlog and collecting information in this way works well for some users but not others. You can always post your feedback here on the forums and it will be reviewed as always.

Give Common Magic items a Font color like rarer items, instead of just the normal black of mundane equipment

edit: “Environment” already exists
~~Allow us to search filter Monsters by biome~~
Um... you mean, use the Environment box that already exists?
Yes! My bad. Thanks

An index of physical page numbers to DDB sections.
Please bring back Unearthed Arcana

Any chance of support for the Spell Points variant in the DMG?
This is dead now after the WoTC purchase correct?
