I'm creating a homebrew feat and I'm attempting to give a player disadvantage on both dex checks and saving throws as shown here: https://ibb.co/rFDkMZp

However as I add the feat to a character, all skill checks are made with disadvantage, as shown here: https://ibb.co/CJsfq2H

Is there something I did wrong? I did the exact same thing with a feat that gives disadvantage to Cha checks and that worked just fine. Or maybe it's a bug?

Please let me know.

You must have done this:

• Modifier: Disadvantage->Subtype: Ability Checks-> Ability Score: Dex

What you want to do is this:

• Modifier: Disadvantage->Subtype: Dexterity Ability Checks

I hope that helps.

That fixed it, thanks. I made that mistake initially, but then fixed it. That didn't help. Now I removed the property entirely and readded it. That did the trick.

 Happy to help!

PS- Whenever you change a modifier you must always re-save the whole entire homebrew or the system won’t update it cache the reflect the new changes.

Follow-up! I'm trying to edit the speed of the character in question in the same feat. And it just won't do it. I've saved it over and over and even reopened my browser and character sheets. I've tried it 3 different ways:

Bonus to speed -5
Impose speed reduction 5
Set Walking speed 20

None of them work. I'm sure it's me somehow, but it just won't save what I'm doing. I've also readded the properties multiple times.

Try:

Modifier: Bonus->Subtype: Speed (Walking)->Fixed Value -5

Make sure to use the minus sign on the keyboard and not the one on the number pad.

After saving the feat, it can take up to 15ish minutes for those changes to get pushed through to the character sheet if the character already has the feat, so be patient.

Ah that last bit is important here. I was expecting instant results. Thank you very much.

Sometimes it is instant, sometimes not so much. 🤷‍♂️ Again, happy to help.
