You can now create a shared space on your D&D Beyond digital character sheets where everyone in your group can manage items together!
We know adventuring parties have been sharing loot since the first group of players realized they couldn’t all carry the same Bag of Holding. And sure, in theory, you could just scribble “Bob has the Gem of Destruction” in your notebook, or worse, trust your friend's memory.
But for those dreaded moments when your DM asks, "Who's carrying the gem again?" and suddenly no one can remember if it was in the Wizard’s robe or stashed in the Rogue's boot, there's now Party Inventory: D&D Beyond's new way of preventing your group from imploding over a misplaced MacGuffin.
What Does It Do?
Party Inventory gives your adventuring group the ability to share a single stash via their digital character sheets—no more lost loot or missing potions. Drop in items, equip them, reshuffle as needed, and even pool your gold (yes, including those Platinum Pieces).
This is a very cool improvement.
Could we have this kind of effort put in fixing the Warlock Invocations from the PHB released a year ago and which is a core aspect of being able to playing this class with 2024 rules?
This will be clutch for my players who can never remember who has what. Love this addition.
This is a great feature!! Love it
This is awesome!! Keep them coming, please. Thank you :-)
Big fan of this. Keep up the good work!
Love it!
Much needed, and very close to perfect! However, party inventory still has to be carried by an individual even if no one has yet claimed it as their actual possession. Would be ideal if the party inventory had an additional column where you can assign which character is currently holding it via a dropdown of all characters in the campaign. Assigning the item should also add the item's weight to that character's encumbrance, for groups that care about tracking that.
If you put a backpack or a bag of holding in the party inventory, it is equippable. So, the character that is carrying it in game can have it equipped, while other players can still interact with the contents. When equipped, it counts towards that character's carry weight.
If you have something in the main equipment of the party inventory that you want to share among players, like a magic sword, the player using it currently can equip it without moving it into their inventory. The attack actions for the item should appear on that character's sheet. (Or they can move it into their inventory and move it back when done). Hope that helps!
I've been waiting 8 years for the Divine Soul Sorcerer to be fixed, good luck!
Awesome - thank you!!!
holy shit something actually good. now can we get À la carte back, i don't want to pay 40 -70 CAD for only a few things out of a book
I may have accidentally found a limitation/bug. 😂
if you have too many containers as “tabs” it pushes the inventory view so low the tabs were beyond the border and didn’t show inventories any more. I managed to undo it and consolidate some inventories to show the inventory list again.
I blame my Minecraft chest organizing ocd for this accidental limitation. 😂
I like the the character sheet is getting more love. Keep going.
excellent
^^^^^^ yes, this too please ^^^^^
We were in the middle of a game, had a break and this arrived:) You should've seen the hype:))
Thanks! For some reason renaming a container to "Party Items Held by Barry the Brave", and so on, didn't occur to me, despite my using containers for various other sheet work-arounds. After playing around with party inventory I also learned that it does show who has equipped what on the sheets of other players by displaying an "equipped by Barry the Brave" note. While my other suggestion was for all items to be assignable, your recommendation to use renamed containers which are an item type that can be equipped neatly solves that issue as well.
It is great that Party Inventory can work as I'd like it to! I'm going to really get a lot of use out of this addition. If I could wish for one improvement in a future update, it would be nice if the Party Inventory automatically added a pre-existing container for each PC, and perhaps also one for the party's Bastion. Then adding additional containers would only be necessary if the group wants even more granular sorting.
Nice update, but it makes the already small primary box even smaller...
Nice addition everyone. Thank you!
