The biggest issue I have with Monsters here (and monster in the MM as well) is that it requires you to look up all spells you don't know perfectly. For high spellcasting monsters this becomes a lot of spells. It would be really nice if you could click on a spell and be linked to it in one way or another, so you can quickly find out what it does.
I agree this would be a huge help. It would make planning and running encounters with spellcasaters in it 10 times easier so that we don't have to keep so many tabs open to keep things running quickly and smoothly.
This actually sounds like a wonderful idea not just for monster lists but anything else that is referenced somewhere else. Clickable links would make information lookup so much swifter which would be a real boon during a game. Pulls the focus back to the game/story much faster, which feels like the goal of this project overall.
I agree that this would be helpful and Dragonidas' idea of a pop up would be perfect. Then you don't have to reload pages as you browse through the list looking for the right spell.

I'll second this. I was surprised when looking at a monster stat block that has spells listed and they were not linked.

I was actually going to create a thread to propose this exact same idea. I second this!
There are several threads on this topic. It would be a great idea!
Agreed, this would make it easier to access the right spells at the right time whilst playing.
Great idea, and it dosen´t have to take you to the Spell page; maybe a pop up on the same screen were the mosnter is with the info of the spell

Great idea! This should be part of our character sheets in phase two of the beta, along with the same functionality for items.
