Here's hoping the new homepage adjusts the display of sources to what I'm using lately instead of the Featured lists. Quests From the Infinite Staircase finally got pushed off the Featured list for me so now I have to do extra clicks to prep stuff.

edit: Oops didn't read down far enough!

My Library Overhaul – Coming December 17​

On December 17, we plan to roll out an update to D&D Beyond’s Sources page that makes it more customizable and sortable for users. It will also transition from being called “Sources” to “My Library.”

This update will include the ability to favorite the books you use frequently and filter through your collection to find the content you need for your games faster.

I just want search to only show me the books I own....that would be a nice update.

I wonder what they are planning to make DMing easier? I'd like notes/campaign mgmt tools of some kind, I think. Esp if my players can update them / read them......

Random NPC names would be good....

 

[Zaukrie]

The ability to select tokens on teh map and add them to initiative (I don't think that is there now?). Randomizing adjectives to monster of the same type (heck, randomize HP).

I’m most excited about art/handouts coming to Maps!

Same! I'm starting to use Maps every session even though I'm a hardcore miniatures/terrain enthusiast. I like having a map of the city or region open for the players, and being able to have handouts and art pop up will be amazing.

It's funny that Maps started as this kinda "Oh, by the way..." thing that seemed like it was just supposed to tide us over until the 3dVTT, and now it's become the thing. Still included at no extra charge, which is fantastic - my DDB master tier subscription is, by far, the best value for my entertainment dollar of my entire life.

Hmm, I generally like D&D Beyond, but a broader D&D AMA would be a lot more useful.
