looks like the 3pp content does not find its way into the character builder.

That's only true for classes

I'm using 3pp stuff in the builder right now -- species, spells, monsters (as a pet), a subclass

I buy a lot of 3pp items; however, as I have moved more to online play, I tend to only use content on DDB.

The convenience of the character builder and dice roller integrated on the screen just helps.

I’d like to try Level Up. I own it all but I do not have a physical group right now so that kills it.

That is my biggest issue with any game right now not on DDB.

I have not used any other VTT so not sure if anyone else offers the simple interface of character sheet that allows linked rolls to a campaign group.

DDB is just easy to use.

Yeah, I'm convinced that psionics ending up the way it did in the most recent playtests is at least partially because a bog standard spellcaster with a psionic gloss is relatively easy to add within the confines of the existing D&DB code.

What's wrong with the tech that it can't handle new classes? Does that mean you can't create an Artificer on Beyond? Or is WotC just gatong 3pp classes?

Classes are the hardest thing for them to put in char gen, and I think they charge a lot for them. Which is why there are only a handful (Artificer, blood hunter, gunslinger, illrigger and soon pugilist) that have been done.

They do. For example, we have Level Up Gateway. I'm sure other games have their own, or they're on Demiplane. I imagine you'll find in a few years that most games have this functionality, whether in-house or on a hosted platform.

It would seem that if you can do one. You can do all of them.

 

[Marandahir]

So pumped!

I will totally pay for ExEb again. But I'd love to buy an updated physical copy too.

that’s like saying that if your factory can build pickup trucks it should be able to also churn out F1 racing cars. It really depends on the details / class mechanics

How so? Class ability X happens at level Y.
