View Full Version : Associate NPC spells with 2024 Players Handbook

I'm pulling some NPCs from older sources and I noticed that their spells don't reflect the current 2024 PHB updates - cure wounds for example is 1d8 when the NPC is added to the combat tracker and the shortcut points to the spell entry in the 2014 PHB.

How can I update the NPC stat block, so that when I drop it into the combat tracker it will give me the 2024 results?

Thanks!

I haven't tried this yet but here's what I would expect the flow to be...
- Delete the individual spell actions from the NPC. But leave the Spellcasting trait(s).
- Close the PHB 2014 and open the 2024 PHB.
- Right click on the NPC and "Reparse spells"

I used it as the source and prefilled the data from the PHB 2024. They are not linked. If you parse them again, it should use whatever source you have loaded.
