I'm having an issue that may or may not be a bug. As a DM I'm trying to allow some of the prerequisites for a feat on a character sheet from the 2024 player's handbook. However, when I went to my player's feats section to add a feat and turned off the switch that forces prerequisites, I still can't assign the feat I want. The specific feat requires Lv.4 to add and it's the Weapon Mastery Feat. There was a LOT of other feats (all with prerequisites) that aren't showing up either when the switch is turned off. The switch only applies to previous 2014 or Homebrew content with prerequisites at this time.
We’ve continued to correct text and formatting issues as we find them.
As noted in this thread, there have been a number of game mechanics have been given stealth errata on DDB. Are you able to tell us if there will be an official errata document any time soon?
Some Sage Advice from Jeremy would also be appreciated on things like interpreting the new stealth rules (which impose the invisible condition on a hidden creature), "dual wielding" by juggling multiple weapons with one hand, and the like. I can make my own rulings on these, but it would still be nice to know what the RAI is here, as some of these rules updates don't make sense.
Also, the tool kit descriptions in the 2024 PHB are missing their listed weights. (These are in the print version of the PHB but not in the DDB version for some reason.)

Please fix this.
I'm seeing Weapon Master (2024) and Weapon Master (2014) both as available in the feats list for my wizard/fighter on the 2024 ruleset, and the status of the toggle doesn't affect this. Double check that the character has access to the Player's Handbook and not just the Free Rules, as it isn't a Free Rules item.
I wouldn't hold my breath on that. Armorer has needed fixing since it was released. At this point I don't imagine they bother with it until it gets updated (which Jeremy Crawford has said they're already working on doing).
Paladins and Rangers "fighting style feat" just says "choose a fighting style feat" and if you back-end force it on your sheet, it doesn't seem to work.
Thrown Weapon fighting style has +2 to all attacks, even if they're melee. Could we get a "Thrown" option underneath, like we currently have for using a weapon 2-handed?
Ritual Caster feat also still lets you select 6 spells, regardless of your proficiency bonus. Also, the spells learnt aren't added to the Spells tab
Honestly the biggest issue I've noticed is that there is no decent reporting tool. I'm being genuine, not snarky. A forum where folks keep repeating the same issues is no way of becoming aware of issues.
Y'all have a motivated user base, help us help you and make some sort of reporting tool or even a list of known issues.
Confused: I have access to the new Player Handbook, but can't seem to see all the backgrounds in the Character Builder. I only see Acolyte, Criminal, Sage and Soldier. Anyone else? (I'm trying to find the Guide background).
Came here to say the same thing. Same with Species. Was trying to create a druid but couldn't find the species or background I wanted. I like the new backgrounds. They're now consistent and add a lot of abilities and flavor.
Initially I thought it was because I was using a shared PHB2024 so I bought it. Same thing.
Hey, so was the same for me, I was using a shared version. In the end I bought it and it took some time to sync, and then the background appeared! Hope it's synced for you too by now!
Appreciate it. I just wish they'd make an official announcement. I am holding out hope that once they figure out how to get the Partnered Content corrected, that that solution will also be able to apply to homebrew content.
If they're going to list subclasses as backwards compatible they need to update this feature and make it to where they auto use the 2024 version of the spells on the new core paladin class. It's asinine otherwise.

They waited until like a week before the book was released to the first pre-orders to tell us how DDB would work! I have been screaming on these forums for months asking them to announce something! This is just bad PR.

Paladin's spells are showing as learned instead of prepared.
Oath of Conquest Paladin Oath spells are not counting as always prepared when selected with the 2024 paladin. 2024 subclasses work fine.

Minor text bug, not a priority.
This is a bigger one, one of the biggest bugs right now. No subclass from Legacy/Expanded rules is showing the subclass spells correctly.
DELETED
I am a silly billy.
But yeah, the Artificer still needs fixing.
ESPECIALLY the Armorer.
DM, player & homebrewer(Current homebrew project is an unofficial conversion of SBURB/SGRUB from Homestuck into DND 5e)
Once made Maxwell's Silver Hammer come down upon Strahd's head to make sure he was dead.
Always study & sharpen philosophical razors. They save a lot of trouble.
Warlock:
Mobile app does not support Pact of the Blade CHA bonuses
2014 invocations not available at all.

(Glad to see warlocks are working though)

Spell Bug
Ray of Enfeeblement has a "range spell attack to hit" even though the 2024 version of the spell only requires a spell save dc.
(Previous versions of spell did require "range spell attack" however reading the new rules this has been taken out of the text).
Minor text edit for Warcaster. It says:
(A) on CON on Constitution saving throws that you make to maintain Concentration.
It should say:
(A) on CON saving throws that you make to maintain Concentration.
Agonizing Blast only works on Eldritch Blast.
Also, is there a list of known bugs?
Everything thus guy said! To continue the Echo of fixing the Artificer.

Poisoner feat doesn't add proficiency with the Poisoner's Kit.
