THANK YOU! I was hopping this would come, but did not want to spam request features!

Looks good... only had a few minutes to take a peek, but my first inclination would be that your class / racial abilities could be expanded on.

I.E.  I made a random character that came up with a Lvl 10 Cleric/Ranger/Sorcerer  I get the following list:  (sorry so long)

Sorcerer:
- Draconic Resilience
- Dragon Ancestor
- Hit Points
- Proficiencies
- Sorcerous Origin
- Spellcasting
- Sorcery Points
Cleric:
- Bonus Proficiency
- Disciple of Life
- Divine Domain
- Hit Points
- Proficiencies
- Spellcasting
- Channel Divinity
- Channel Divinity: Preserve Life
Ranger:
- Favored Enemy
- Hit Points
- Natural Explorer
- Proficiencies
- Fighting Style
- Spellcasting
- Hunter’s Prey
- Primeval Awareness
- Ranger Archetype
- Ability Score Improvement
- Extra Attack
Racial Traits:
- Darkvision
- Keen Senses
- Fey Ancestry
- Trance
- Elf Weapon Training
- Mask of the Wild

 

I'd really like the descriptions as well.

Some of these aren't needed (spellcasting / proficiencies / hit points, etc)

But Disciple of life... kind of important to know what it does "Also starting at 1st level, your healing spells are more effective. Whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to 2 + the spell’s level."

Could be abbreviated somehow.  We all have out favorite sheets, and one of the reasons I like some of them is when I enter a class feature, racial trait, feat, etc.. it autofills some good info for me.

This would be HUGE help to beginning players.  And would cut down on the amount of editing needed to get the sheet to be in a workable format for the table.

 

 That might be on purpose, so you can't create a character sheet and share it with people who don't use the site.  It could also be a licensing issue.  I'm not sure, but I'm sure there are some legal issues to expand.  Besides, that would get super full super fast, based on just a level 10 alone, much less higher level characters.

Personally, I like it, because I'd like to be able to publically share interesting character builds on my website without any legal repercussions, and including descriptions may intefere with that.  I can delete that information before I post it, so it may not harm things in the long run if they were to add some descriptions, but that's why I'm okay with them not including them.

Speaking of which.  BadEye, would there be any limitations on posting character sheets generated from here on to other websites?  I'd love to start doing it, but I certainly don't want to run into any problems.

No issues with character sharing in other places. We will actually add the ability to do that more easily via social platforms in the near future too.

Yeah. It's interesting. It's one particular character that jumps to for Forbidden. I created a random character with same race, class and level and it worked fine.

I'll happily share a link to the character . . . but I don't know how to do that? Just the url?

 Awesome!  Thanks for the info!  I know I sound like a gushing fanboy to a number of people, but you guys go above and beyond, which I really appreciate.

Ok see that character sheet Export is available.  Altough think using standard D&D sheet is not the way to go.  That format is unwieldy. For examply my character as more equipment than fits in box. so half of it does not show on sheet.  And yeah pitty you do not see descriptions. or easy way to print description.

Yea this is where I'm having problems. I can view the pdf's of my characters, as long as they aren't part of a campaign. My one character that is part of a campaign is not viewable by me. Not sure if it was intended that only a dm can create pdf's of campaigned(?) players?

Going to be very hard to list full descriptions for class features in the space that's provided in the PDF. Those other "favorite" sheets have different layouts that allow for expanded descriptions.

We will offer other types of formats in the future and we will certainly look for ways to get more information that would be useful into the export.

Thanks!

Looking forward to other formats . to be honest 5 e paper version was never good. Dnd insider 4 e character builder did it quite well. did you have a look how it did it?  Simmilar setup would be perfect.  It allowed for printing of character sheet  . included all spells a character add or item powers, feats etc. + allowed you to print rituals separately if you had them.

Main reason for me to subscribe would eb character builder + easy way to print. Had expected at least same functions as dndinsider character builder had. Then it would be a no brainer for me.  If you need an example still have a few as pdf.  As it stands now may was well fill them by hand.  Had expected much more.

 It would only make sense to have the first character sheet option available be the official WotC character sheet.  :D

More options will come!

I also get a 404 for my character.

I'm not sure if it's just my low perception score, and I can't find it, but it doesn't seem there is a way to change from one of the portraits to one of my own images.

 Spell Save DCs on Export Character Sheet show up as modifiers rather than DCs (ie, they show up with a + in front)

When it gets to the end of character creation, can that be followed by a section where you are shown the starting equipment for your class &/ background and asked if you'd like take that and quickly pick between the options? I.e Shortsword/Any Simple weapon or explorers pack/dungeoneers pack, and auto adds the other items OR instead use starting gold to purchase custom choice starting equipment? . Rather than having to remember what's included as starting equipment and searching it in the equipment section to add individually? 

Let me know if i'm missing something and this is already a feature!
