When selecting Mark of Sentinel as one feat, I cannot select Greater Mark of Sentinel (or Potent Mark) as a second feat. Also as a second feat I can still select other Marks. The Mark of Passage for example works fine for me, as a second feat I can choose both the Greater Mark of Passage or Potent Mark, but not any of the Tier 1 Marks.
I'm wondering whether, as the Marks are clearly not working properly nor receiving any sort of public-facing progress updates, whether any workarounds might be suggested.
I understand that there is a big recoding project happening, and I'm sure it will be a decidedly improved experience when it's complete.
However, as one among many who has spent money on both a digital book and a DDB subscription, I have to say that promises of an improved future state leave me rather cold.
My game is in the present. My need for functionality is in the present. My ongoing subscription is in the present.
What can we do to satisfy our mutual needs and expectations?
Apparently the marks are fixed for some people, but not others,
So I'm hearing. I wonder what confluence of factors is leading to this weirdness.
What's particularly weird is, if I recall correctly, all of these Dragonmark feats actually worked fine at first, and then some parts of some of them suddenly stopped working a couple months ago, but only for some people.

Bingo! I suspect (but have NO IDEA) that some of the improvements that are happening behind the scenes may have, in this case, actually caused these problems.
I place no blame, as I'm totally uninformed about such things, I just hope it gets resolved soon!

That seems unlikely; I'd imagine the new character builder they're working on is a totally separate thing.

Well, I know they're doing some massive shift in the way that each individual thing (monster, stat, feat, item, spell, etc.) is stored and accessed across the entire system. I sort of figured that somewhere in the midst of that, something "disconnected." But, again, that's me largely talking about things on which I have little relevant knowledge. LOL

I don't have any special insider knowledge of this specific tool, but from the perspective of someone who's been doing web development for many years, it is vanishingly unlikely that the development process for something like that would have any impact on the live production environment for the current tool.

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.
