View Full Version : TCoE not properly generating Beast Master features

Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything doesn’t properly populate its Beast Master features as optional replacements or a separate subclass entry. This is incredibly frustrating and requires a lot of manual work to fix my players' character sheets with features like “Primal Companion”, as they are not properly generated.

Are you using the Character Wizard or Drag and drop?

Welcome to FG.
Tasha’s options are difficult to handle since firstly they are options and secondly they aren’t full archetypes or classes; they’re just add ones in some cases and in others completely change certain traits or options. The options should populate in the character sheet (I can’t check right now since I’m not at my computer) but that should work with the character wizard or drag and drop.
At any rate once the player chooses the option then they’ll need to manually update their sheet as needed since most traits aren’t automated in any way.
Again, not near a computer, and I can’t remember what that might involve.

Drag and Drop. The thing is all of TCoE's other Optional features or Optional Replacement features autopopulated the sheet, such as "Favored Foe" and "Deft Explorer", in addition to the base Ranger features "Favored Enemy" and "Natural Explorer". The only TCoE Ranger Optional Replacement feature missing was "Primal Companion". I've had to manually add them myself. As is, moving forward, I'm considering adding a custom Ranger class entry into my own custom module that I use for homebrew content.

Ah, yes. I remember that now (having had a chance to look at this). The problem is that the beastmaster archetype doesn't appear in Tasha only a replacement for one of its features. Hence I couldn't include the full text of the archetype. Since there's no archetype in Tasha there's nothing to attach the changed up feature to I'm afraid.
You'll find the templates for the beasts that can be summoned in the DM portion of Tasha's - see the notes section for instructions and/or video two here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?63715-Videos-for-Tasha&p=557113#post557113

Oh, that's certainly true to the supplement. I'll try one of my workarounds to simplify things for my players.
