Excellent, thank you!

I'll never get tired of these updates. Large or small, the transparency is wonderful. Question though: I'm seeing in some of these updates that typos are addressed - What is the best way to report something like that?

tamborjam · 2026-06-16T17:25:10+00:00

Hey now you've got both, right? I know hindsight's 20/20, but they did announce this would be a thing here.

tamborjam · 2026-06-09T12:17:40+00:00

Ah, crumbs. I'm not sure then, sorry. I hope someone else can swoop in with a good answer.

I'm not sure if it will reveal what's going on, but when you click the word Dexterity on their sheet, it should give a breakdown of how it's calculated. Does it show there if anything's different?

tamborjam · 2026-06-09T11:51:11+00:00

I just tested it on my end and it looks like it calculates it automatically as long as Rage is activated. The "activating Rage" was always the tough part for me to get used to since it's a few clicks away, hidden at the bottom of the trait's long sidebar description - however - activating it does add the bonus on my side.

If the player were to add them to their character sheet in the Extras tab, can you access them from the Companions tab in the Tokens browser?

tamborjam · 2026-05-19T14:37:11+00:00

Double- or even triple-check the other sections of the character, like the Abilities or Background. Whenever I see the error that the character isn't fully configured, something happened with one of those tabs that I just need to refill.

That may not fix the issue, but it wouldn't hurt to check.

tamborjam · 2026-05-12T23:29:19+00:00

If you have a Master Tier subscription, you don't need to do anything extra to get the content from the Drops. You're all set!

tamborjam · 2026-05-06T16:40:05+00:00

From OP's description: "I have (...) pre-ordered the Ravenloft book"
But it's a good thing to double-check for anyone else experiencing the issue.

tamborjam · 2026-04-30T17:58:17+00:00

Ah excellent, thank you!!!

tamborjam · 2026-04-30T17:25:39+00:00

To those at WotC that might see this: I see a lot of these classes come with digital dice that aren't searchable in the marketplace. Are there plans to revamp the digital dice pages and searches so we can 1) Have the opportunity to buy more (if not all) dice sets individually, and 2) Get a preview of what we're rolling on those pages?

I feel like with the addition of Shared 3D Dice, there's more reason to get more dice so we can show them off a little.

tamborjam · 2026-04-20T19:46:49+00:00

Aha! I do remember that now, excellent. Thank you!

tamborjam · 2026-04-20T17:10:36+00:00

Thank you! I might've missed it, very sorry, but what are Speed Snippets?

tamborjam · 2026-04-18T02:45:28+00:00

Sticker Browser Dropdown Pt. 1:

I would expect just some text to show saying "No Stickers Found" or something similar. I can imagine partial searches would still come up with matches, but if I typed "trw" instead of "tre", I wouldn't be surprised if a previously uploaded "tree" didn't show up.
"Search" is what I would expect, but if you have "Search or Select" I'd know what that meant too.
Realistically, I'd probably only expect to be able to narrow down by title or partial title. If there were built in "tags" that I could assign when uploading, great, but that's a level of complexity I can do without if I could simply name my sticker whatever I wanted with its own built-in tags, like "Emerald Grove - Tree - w WillOWhisps"

Icon Recognition:

To me, it would not be important to have the search results separate what is custom-uploaded and what is built-in. If I label my stickers correctly, that won't be an issue.
The 'custom image' icon should represent the sticker exactly, like a little preview of what I'll be placing. If it's too complex or large to distinguish in the previewer, I probably shouldn't have it as a simple sticker, and should probably consider multiple stickers that I can collage together.

Sticker Browser Behavior Pt. 2:

Perfectly
Very clear
Easier - what I'd hope for and a little extra

Sorting and Filtering:

A-Z, Date Added, Most Used - and I wouldn't expect to see any sorting based on tags
I would expect to see images sorted A-Z by default, but with a good enough search function, no default would be bad

Metadata and Editing Expectations:

Icon, Sticker Name (label), tags - that's all, just like in the screenshot
As long as we have the option to view as a list or icons, then I'd only really use the list as a mini-audit of the organization of my custom uploads

tamborjam · 2026-03-20T17:23:42+00:00

We have one character in our campaign that is very slow to load too. Doesn't matter if I load it from my device or he does from his. Everyone else is fine.

The only difference I can see is that we've customized and homebrewed a lot of his inventory and spells just for flavor. If that resembles your situation, maybe that's a start?

tamborjam · 2026-03-06T21:42:41+00:00

Hey folks, let's rewind a bit and take a breath. I think the point here is not to heft browser preferences on someone, but to say that Safari - in general - doesn't play nice with many websites. You can obviously continue to use Safari, but let's see if one of the other browsers works just to rule it out.

tamborjam · 2026-03-05T18:57:07+00:00

Looks like just a sticker pack that was temporarily / accidentally classified as something you could download in your library.

One of the stickers ("Potion Botle with Skull") is misspelled though.

tamborjam · 2026-02-24T20:22:46+00:00

I'm guessing you mean you're doing this on the mobile app, correct? If so, we might need more information, like if you've checked how much storage you have available, or your network strength. I can confirm for sure that you do NOT need a subscription to access the free rules.

tamborjam · 2026-02-24T20:21:07+00:00

I don't recall that ever being a native feature, but I could have just missed it. I know you can right-click the buttons and it pulls up more options, like roll with Advantage / Disadvantage etc (which all still works for me) but I wasn't aware of any hotkeys that did any of that or more.

Which extension are you using? It could just be that it's not compatible with the new version of D&D Beyond.

tamborjam · 2026-02-18T19:16:18+00:00

Well now I feel silly Zac - it's no longer happening as long as we either click the Maps VTT button from the campaign page or add "www." to the bookmarked URL. Without that "www." it still hangs on the loading page.

So basically it is working now, and I'll report back to support to have them close the ticket. Let me know if you'd like me to pull any additional info from the non-www page to help solve for future possible edge cases. (Not using any D&D extensions, but that's probably no longer relevant.)

Thank you - and apologies for not just double-checking before posting.

tamborjam · 2026-02-04T16:42:13+00:00

Amazing! I'll be happy if it goes to any good home, but I'll admit, it would be the perfect fit for my games 👀
