Based on the changelog, it just said that it’ll only be marking stuff with Legacy tags for the most part with spells, besides the smite and befuddlement case. But magic items will be updated. I think. It might be inaccurate or not up to date or something, I spent 5 minutes on this.
You're missing the part where it says, for example, that if you have healing word prepared that it will be replaced with the new version.
You can also look at the "What if I want to use 2014 spells and magic items" section that says "Homebrew it."
Davyd post where he mentions that anything in both the 5.0 and 5.5 will be updated to the 5.5 Davyd post where he mentions current spells/items will not be possible to select when attempting to homebrew-copy.
Your character has Healing Word prepared and you want to cast the spell. When you click on the spell on your character sheet, you will see the new version of Healing Word. However, you can still find the old version of Healing Word in your copy of the Basic Rules and the 2014 Player’s Handbook in the compendium.
And
WHAT IF I WANT TO USE THE 2014 VERSION OF A SPELL OR MAGIC ITEM?
If you wish to use the old version of a magic item or spell that has been replaced by its 2024 counterpart, you will need to create a homebrew copy of it and enable homebrew content on your character sheet. Then, you can add it to your character sheet.
It is not possible to create homebrew versions of mundane equipment. However, the only significant change to weapons is the addition of mastery properties. You will still need the appropriate feat or class feature to utilize a weapon’s mastery property. Mundane armor will not be affected by changes in the D&D Beyond toolset.
Hi there! My name's Elk. I'm NoiSilverheart's doppelgänger. I'm a demi/grayromantic, socially awkward Okie who may or may not be a pyromaniac. *random confetti blast*
I'm a warlock of the Archcrone, and my patron is TheFriendlyArchfey. I was nicknamed AchatesCervus8337 by VitusW and given the titles "Swashbuckling Scorcher", "The Unpredictable Jedi", "Burning Fury of the Ancients", and "Combustion Knight" by DrummerBoyDragonSlayer.
I like the 2014 versions better pretty sure most people do.
