It does, which is why it really doesnt matter a ton. I'm just new-ish so it would be convenient to have a shorthand of the spell (since you can't just add whatever to a character sheet). I got it set up though, it just brought up a question about using class level when you use a custom action. I'd post a pic for refrence but I can't figure out how to upload one on mobile 💀
Ok, I am trying to put a snippet for stone's endurance on my monster, they can use it once a day just like the Goliath but I have no idea how to write this. I am new at this stuff and most of this is confusing the crap out of me but I am hoping there is someone out there that has done this already.

Snippets do not work on monsters, nor are they either useful or necessary. Snippets are used to display dynamic information for player characters. For a monster, you would simply write in the Reactions section:
Stone’s Endurance (1/day). When it takes damage, the [monster name] can reduce the damage by 1d12 + [monster’s Con mod].
I tried figuring out snippet codes from this post, but I can't seem to figure it out. I am trying to add the spell save dc a character would have to a description. Any help on how I would go about doing that, how to code it correctly?

Two things:
Snippets don’t work in descriptions, only in snippet fields.
The correct snippet would be {{savedc:[abil]}}, only you would replace where it says “[abil]” with the abbreviation for the corresponding Ability Score (int, wis, cha) an all lowercase letters. So, for example, if it was a wizard it would be {{saved:int}}, but a paladin would be {{saved:cha}}.
Anyone know how to add a Mastery snippet? I'm adding a trait to a new race that lets them to replace a weapon's Mastery with either Push or Topple, and wondering how to do it.

Two things:
Snippets don’t actually “do” anything, just display dynamic information.
Not formatted bullet points, anyway. Working from the basis that some tags are recognized in snippets, I tried the <ul></ul> tag, to no avail. The only way I’ve gotten a bulleted list to display is putting a “- “ at the beginning of a line. I suppose you could put a “ - “ if you wanna get fancy. sorry.
If you really want to put bullet points in a snippet you can use this: • (the code for it is •), but the main point of the snippet fields is to save space on the sheet, so I don’t suggest it. I have tried it in the and thought it looked snazzy, but then realized what a pain in the patoot it was during gameplay.

I bet it would be really snazzy on the Features section of the CR, but maybe less so in actions?

Play with it and see what you think. I personally found it just led to more scrolling, and no additional clarity of understanding. To me it took longer and required made more work to input, and took up more space on the sheet, but didn’t add anything useful. But if you find differently then get down with it. No such thing as a wrong opinion after all.
You mean for a druid?

If you have access to Tasha’s and actually activate that Optional Class feature then the snippet attached to it already displays that for you.

**edit: I get what I did wrong, but it feels irrelevant to fix lol. Thanks for all the help and the resources!
**nvm realized I didn't have to make an account and could just "open image in new tab". Still no reason to really post it though lmao

If you want the 1d12+[Con mod] to be rollable on the monster’s stat block, you don’t need a snippet, you need a “rollable,” which you can learn about here: (https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/106856-adding-rollable-tags-to-your-homebrew-monsters-for).

I think I saw someone figured out how to do the sides of a die for the psionic energy die:
Lvl 1-4 = 1d6
Lvl 5-10 = 1d8
Lvl 11-16 = 1d10
Lvl 17-20 = 1d12
I want to say I saw it as something like: {{(characterlevel/9@rounddown)+(characterlevel/7@rounddown)+4}}, but clearly not that.
Hopefully we can get it added to then first post like the barbarian rage damage {{(classlevel-2)/7)@rounddown}} is.
EDIT: Credit to Mairondil
<strong>1d</strong>{{8+(classlevel/11)@rounddown*2+(classlevel/17)@rounddown*2}}

Ahh. That formatting will work on monster stat blocks, just not character sheets.
