Bug Report for dndbeyond character builder: As a 2024 Bard, I cannot select the Colledge of Tragedy subclass from Critical Role even though I own and have enabled that 3rd party content. The same holds for the Chronurgy and Graviturgy Wizard - and probably all other 3rd party subclasses, even though I have only checked for some.
Fixed this by creating a homebrew subclass for the 24-Bard from scratch and then copy over all features from the 3rd party subclass for the 14-Bard. I cannot understand though why it's seemingly not possible to fix this, and I really ask myself if this wave of including various 3rd party content that became unusable just a few month later with the introduction of the 24 PHB is just a big scam.
It appears to be a licensing problem, so it's technically possible, but not legally so.
Hello, everyone, and happy Player's Handbook release day! We're back with more bug fixes for you. If these aren't resolving for you, try clearing your cache.
As an additional note: many of the fixes listed here are inclusive of multiple reported issues (e.g. resolving ‘at-will’ spell issues affected every at-will spell—no need to list spells out by class); though these lists may be small, there’s a lot being resolved!
It's been 4 weeks since we had a staff post on this thread. Am I the only one who's noticed the complete drop off on communication across the site lately?
Why haven't we seen an update since Sept 17th on the front page? Is anyone still working on these bugs?
They are. We've seen updates in the character sheets themselves, even if they're not being open about bugfixes in the forums and blogs. They're just understaffed.
Number of staff could be an issue, but focusing on the wrong things also makes a difference. The long term trend has been that dndbeyond tries to force themselves into a saturated market by pushing their own VTT, meanwhile paying little attention to what actually brought people to the site in the first place: the character builder that had (almost) all official content neatly integrated into it. Well that and the ability to buy precisely the content that you wanted, but that feature is already gone. Imagine if just a small fraction of the resources poured into making the VTT had gone to fixing the character sheets instead.
You can’t take the lessons of the first one invocation twice. Even though you are supposed to be able to. It’s just not an option anymore, when you have selected it before.
The PBH briefly blunk out of my possession, even with entitlements & licenses synced, then returned midway through filing a support ticket. Don't know why. Might want to look into that.

That is a management problem. WOTC, get everything 2024 fixed - YESTERDAY! I want what I'm paying you for.
So can anyone on this thread get ahold of an employee that can help me with a damaged physical PHB. After a month and over 10 emails and 2 tickets on the website. No one has replied to me.
So, uh...it's the 10th of October. How come you guys haven't figured out a way to separate 2014 monk die and 2024 monk die yet? It's screwing up 2014 monk builds.
In a campaign. Dungeon Master has purchased OneDND content including Player's Handbook 2024. They shared it with the campaign via Master tier. As a player, I can access 2024 Paladin, but I don't see the Oath of Glory subclass. From what I can tell, this is in Player's Handbook 2024. Is that correct? Anyone else have a similar issue?

Make sure the character you're making is actually associated with that campaign. You have to join the campaign with that character or it won't have access to options from the shared content.
I purchased a hardcopy of PHB 2024, and can definitely show you proof of purchase. Do I need to purchase a digital copy from you in order to have access to this on my DND Beyond, or is there something that can be done for my account without it costing me an additional 30 dollars? I'm going to be purchasing digital/hard copy of DMG 2024 direct from this website, but would like to save 30 dollars if possible for PHB. Thanks in advance.

Hello! I've been messing around with the character creator with the 2024 Player's Handbook. While I do appreciate the updated ruleset, there are a number of issues I've discovered, including but not limited to:
Unable to select the 2024 versions of spells as an Artificer. Additionally, its subclasses only have the legacy version of the spells. (FIXED for the main Artificer! To get the 2024 version of the spells for the subclass, homebrew a version that uses the 2024 spells)
The Infusions only apply to legacy items (i.e. Enhanced Arcane Focus with the legacy versions of the staff, rod, and wand; Replicate Magic Item; Spell-Refueling Ring, Helm of Awareness, etc.). (known)
Other subclasses for the rest of the classes that didn't appear in the 2024 PHB but are selectable only have the legacy version of the spells. The Warlock's only have theirs expand their spell list. (fixed except for the Arcane Domain subclass' Magic Aura, which uses the legacy version. However, the pre-2024 Paladin subclasses do not automatically prepare their spells for the 2024 version of the Paladin)
The Warlock's Pact Blade does not apply their Charisma modifier to weapon attack and damage rolls instead of Strength or Dexterity modifier. (FIXED!)
Feats that let you select features such as Fighting Initiate, Eldritch Adept, and Metamagic Adept are limited to their pre-2024 options. (known)
Backgrounds prior to the release of the 2024 version of the Player's Handbook that give feats only give the legacy version. (known)
Choosing the Divine Soul subclass for the 2024 Sorcerer does not add Cleric spells to the Sorcerer's spell list. (FIXED!)
Certain classes for various feats (Elemental Adept, Fighting Style feats, Spell Sniper, War Caster, etc.) don't seem to meet the prerequisites. (FIXED!)
When Rangers and Paladins choose a Fighting Style at level 2, there is no option. (FIXED!)
Medium Armor Master requires a Dexterity of 16 or higher, despite its prerequisites saying it doesn't. (FIXED!)
When applying the Ability Score Improvement feat, one can raise their ability score above 20.(FIXED!)
When receiving spells from the Paladin subclasses, species, and feats, the button next to the spell says At-Will instead of Use or Cast. (FIXED!)
The Wizard's Spell Mastery feature would not let you upcast level 3 spells. Neither does Signature Spells with Level 1 and 2 spells. (known)
The number of Attacks remain 1 despite classes granting the Extra Attack feature. (FIXED!)
For the 2024 version of the Druid, Cleric, and Wizard, the number of spells they can prepare is still tied to their class level plus their spellcasting modifier. (FIXED!)
The Monk's Warrior of Mercy subclass' Hand of Healing summary has "scalevalue - No level scale data available" instead of its intended value. (FIXED!)
When clicking on Sources at the top, the Player's Handbook (2024) isn't in the Featured section, requiring people to view all sources. (FIXED!)
At times, when using a pre-2024 species with Tasha's Customize Your Origin feature with the 2024 backgrounds, the option to increase your ability scores isn't there. (seems to be fixed)
The 2024 version of the Warlock is not able to pick options from Xanathar's Guide to Everything and Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, such as Improved Pact Weapon. (known)
Hands of Harm, Healing, and Ultimate Mercy does not add a Monk's Wisdom modifier to the dice on the Actions tab in the character sheet. (known)
While a spell scroll has a link to its 2014 page in the 2024 PHB compendium, the 2024 version of a potion of healing doesn't. Instead, it leads to its marketplace page. (FIXED!)
Bards are still apply half of their proficiency bonus to their Initiative. (FIXED!)
Common Sign Language cannot be selected in the character builder nor on the sheet. (FIXED!)
Rogues can't pick a rare language. Additionally, they can apply Expertise to Thieves' Tools. (FIXED!)
The Gloom Stalker's Umbral Sight feature does not increase the range of a species' darkvision. (FIXED!)
The Champion subclass gives the Fighter a feat instead of just being limited to a fighting style feat. (FIXED!)
The Fighter's Weapon Mastery feature at level 4 is missing on the Character Builder. (FIXED!)
The 2024 version of Cure Wounds is categorized as an evocation spell instead of abjuration. (FIXED!)
The Life Domain subclass is missing Aid in the character builder. Instead, it has two Aids in the spell selector. (mostly FIXED! The Life Domain has Aid prepared twice)
The Ranger subclasses don't add the spells prepared from the list, in addition to the Fey Wanderer using the legacy version of Misty Step and Summon Fey. (FIXED!)
The Goliath has advantage on all skills on the character sheet. (FIXED!)
The Eldritch Knight subclass' spells thinks it's two higher levels (class wise) than it's at. At levels 18 to 20, they can pick an infinite number of spells. (FIXED!)
The Fog of War feature for the Skulker feat is not on the Feats page nor in the character builder and sheet, but it's in the Player's Handbook 2024 compendium. (FIXED!)
The Arcane Trickster subclass for the Rogue know one extra cantrip despite automatically learning Mage Hand. (FIXED!)
Anyone with the Archery fighting style can add 2 to a ranged spell attack. (FIXED!)
The Fey-Touched feat has Misty Step and the level 1 spell at At-Will. (FIXED!)
2024 character who are proficient in martial weapons aren't proficient in the musket and pistol, despite the PHB listing them as martial ranged weapons. (FIXED!)
While the subclass spells (for the most part) are automatically prepared, they're added to the spell list so on the character builder, these certain spells, such as Aid and Zone of Truth, are listed twice. (partially fixed)
There isn't anything for firearm bullets in the 2024 Player's Handbook (no link, nothing). (FIXED!)
The Wizard's Diviner subclass feature Third Eye does not provide options in the character builder and sheet. (FIXED!)
The Polearm Master's bonus action doesn't add the user's proficiency user. Additionally, it uses DEX and adds the modifier to the damage. (FIXED!)
Tavern Brawler's Enhanced Unarmed Strike does not add the user's proficiency bonus to the attack roll. (FIXED!)
The Devil's Sight invocation doesn't grant darkvision on the character sheet. Additionally, Lessons of the First One doesn't grant an origin feat automatically nor is it repeatable. (FIXED for Lessons of the First One!)
Even if I turn off the feats requirement, feats like Interception still can't be picked. (FIXED!)
Picking the Javelin mastery thinks the Shield's also a weapon with the slow property. (FIXED!)
Ritual Caster has you pick six ritual spells regardless of proficiency bonus and the spells aren't added on the spells tab of the character sheet. (known)
The prerequisites for the feats from Xanathar's Guide to Everything is bypassed, even with the restriction enabled. (known)
True Strike does not function like Green-Flame Blade and Booming Blade. (known)
The Heightened version of Patient Defense uses one Martial Arts die instead of two. While that's reflected accurately on the Actions tab on the character sheet, the Features and Traits isn't. (known)
In the spells compendium, character sheet, and character builder, the 2024 version of Aura of Vitality's listed as Evocation instead of Abjuration as it's supposed to be. (FIXED!)
The Poisoner feat does not grant proficiency in Poisoner's Kit. (known)
At higher levels than 12, on the character sheet, the Wizard's Arcane Recovery is miscalculated. It goes up to 6 instead of being half the Wizard's level. (FIXED!)
The Wizard's Scholar feature lets you apply expertise to other skills other than what's listed. (known)
Tasha's Cauldron of Everything's version of the Chef feat has checkboxes for tracking usage while 2024 PHB version of that feat has none despite it being exactly the same.
I will add more should I find more issues. I do appreciate the developers and coders taking their time to fix any bugs and glitches. Better to have the buggy stuff during early access than at full launch.
Can you do a version of this for every book in their respective support threads? This post is extremely useful for tracking bugs here!

For some reason, the cleric has aid always prepared regardless of subclass (even without a subclass!)
They are probably working more towards the Dungeon Master Guide right now.
Why haven't we seen an update since Sept 17th on the front page? Is anyone still working on these bugs?

Numbers go up tho.

Psychic Blades for the Soul Knife subclass are finesse weapons but only use Dex even if Str is higher.

Hi, anyone else have this issue?

Make sure the character you're making is actually associated with that campaign. You have to join the campaign with that character or it won't have access to options from the shared content.

Tacking onto this, my 5.0 druid also has aid showing up in his prepared spells, so it's not just the 5.5 druid.
But my 5.0 ranger does not have aid. That said he's lv5 in case it's something that triggers at a higher level.
This is a signature. It was a simple signature. But it has been upgraded.

I wonder if it has to do with another language, due to "Help" and "Aid" sharing meanings in quite a few languages.
Either way, if it's a site-wide issue, it should by prioritized for a fix.
