Sorry Post #116...

I got the code from discord, I believe the [ROLL] should remove the effect after a roll is made but it does not do that. Here is the code:
Effect on character for 1 rd duration:
Absorb Fire; RESIST: fire; EXPIREADD: ABSORBELEMENTSFIRE; STACK

Effects list:
ABSORBELEMENTSFIRE; DMG: 1d6, melee, fire; TURNRE; STACK; [ROLL]

Edit: I did try toggling the "All, one action, one roll" button in the effects list to "one roll" but the effect is added with "all" no matter the setting in the list.

Looks to be working. Thank you.

EXPIREADD doesn't seem to work when an effect ends due to failing a concentration saving throw, is this intentional? is there a way to add an effect when concentration ends? thanks in advance

Version Update: 3.10
Fixed - DUSE not working as intended when using IFT conditionals

Thanks again! I also just noticed that EXPIREADD doesn't work for the RESTS and RESTL modifiers too if that's any help.

Hello everyone,
Thank you for your awesome extension.

I apologize in advance if this issue has been reported before but I couldn't find an answer.
Ruleset: D&D 5e
I'd like to configure with BCEG spells like sunbeam whose creature type has advantage or disadvantage on save.
Sunbeam; SAVEDMG: 6d8 radiant; SAVEADD: effect - sunbeam; SAVEA: CON[SDC](H)(M); STURNRE (1 turn)
with in my list of effects: Effect - Sunbeam; Blinded (1 turn)

At the moment, the only way I found was to create another effect to my spell specifically for undead and ooze:
Sunbeam (against undead and ooze); SAVEDMG: 6d8 radiant; SAVEADD: effect - sunbeam; SAVEA: CON[SDC](H)(M)(DIS); STURN (1 turn)
So far, everything is working fine.

On the other hand, while trying, I noticed that the saving throws coming from "SAVEA; SAVEE; SAVES etc." disregard other NPC effects such as "ADVSAV; DISSAV; Magic Resistance".
Is there a way for this to work?

If you want to automate Sunbeam against undead and ooze you can simply add "IF: TYPE (undead, ooze); DISSAV" at the end of your initial effect, like what I've got going on here:
Sunbeam; STURNRE; SAVEA: CON [SDC] (H) (M); SAVEDMG: 6d8 radiant; SAVEADD: Sunbeam; IF: TYPE (undead, ooze); DISSAV

Hope that helps :)

Hi, i have Aura and BCE gold install, and i'm not able to set the following:

'' When the jovoc takes damage, each creature within 10 feet of the jovoc must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 4 (1d8) necrotic damage. Fiends and undead are immune to this effect.''

Aura Of Retribution; AURA: 10 foe; Aura of Retribution; IF: FACTION(foe); NIF: TYPE(undead, fiends); SAVEONDMG: CON 13; SAVEDMG: 1d8 necrotic;

any help will be welcome.

regards

Thx @FGUDM.

With your effect it works when I replace my NPC skeletton.

I think I must have had too much fun with Skeletton that it was no longer considered an Undead and therefore my first attempts with DISSAV didn't work.

Best regards.

Hi,

Interesting. Do you have any more information about the circumstances that created this error? It looks like it involves some sort of saving throw.

Version update: 3.11
Support for Effect Builder Extension by @SoXMax
Fixed - EXPIREADD still needed additional attention
Fixed - TDMGADDS was not working as intended with IFT

If you wish to use the effect builder you'll need effect builder extension and the effect builder 5E ruleset extension on the forge

yes, i have the 2 following effect coding:

- Stench; AURA: 5 all; IF: FACTION(notself); SAVES: CON 13 (D); SAVEADD: POISONED;

and this one:

Cloud of Vermin; AURA: 20 all; IF: FACTION(notself); SAVES: CON 11; SAVEDMG: 1d4 piercing;

as per i said, only error on client side

thanks

Tried it from the client and I didn't see any error. Are you running any other extensions? If so turn them off. If that fixes it you'll need to figure out what extension is causing the conflict.

will do that and let you know

after testing, i found the issue is with Request Roll Extension. will disable until a fix.

I'll take a look and see what is going on.

I can confirm it is happening as described. Client side error. It rolls the save and determines success but dies before damage is rolled.

Edit: I can get it on the host side as well.

Is there a way to make the effect granted by the Peace Domain Cleric's Emboldening Bond, or automate the Ranger's Favored Foe?
For reference, these abilities each work once per turn (Favored Foe's case only on each of your own turns). I thought (DE) meant it would DEACTIVATE the ability based on use like how expend on action [ACTION] works, except rather than remove the effect like the typical behavior it would deactivate it instead. However (DE) only seems to deactivate the ability when it's first applied.

I'm hoping to just deactivate abilities after use, rather than remove them. Is (DE) suppose to do that but I'm doing something wrong?
This is what I currently have:

Code:

---

Emboldening Bond; (DE); ATK: 1d4; SAVE: 1d4; CHECK: 1d4;TURNAS

Try this:

Code:

Emboldening Bond; ATK: 1d4; SAVE: 1d4; CHECK: 1d4;ATURN; DUSE

Where is ATURN and DUSE documented? And are there other keywords that aren't documented - or are those keywords from another extension altogether?

PDF on the first post of this thread or the documentation module that comes with the extension.

Ah, ok. I was looking at the story entries in the module which doesn't document those two; but the pdf linked to the first post does.

It appears that there might be an issue with: DMGAT and TURNDE
example:
Leather Golem Armor; Aversion of Fire; DISATK; DISCHK; DMGAT: fire; TURNDE (DE)

This is triggering on any damage and not deactivating. This is happening without requested rolls and only BCEG is loaded.

Version update: 3.12
Fixed - (E) not working when applied to self
Fixed - Documentation module missing DUSE/ATURN
Fixed - Exhausted conflict when using Advanced Effects
Fixed - Client script error using Requested Rolls with ongoing saves

Hope its no bother but I've found that the SAVE effect does not work when using SAVEA, SAVES or SAVEE
For example: if a creature with the effect "SAVE: 10 constitution" has "SAVEA: 13 CON" it will roll a constitution saving throw without adding the additional +10 modifier to the roll from the first effect. Thanks for any help in advance.

Thanks for letting us know.. Confirmed and logged as an issue.

EXPIREADD adds 2 copies of whatever condition I set it to add. Does this in an empty campaign without other extensions.

Edit: It adds two copies if it expires via duration, but only 1 if it is expended via roll or action.

I am trying to create an effect that I apply to myself on my turn and the effect should be removed in 1 round at the end of my turn.

I tried this: Lightning Speed;GRANTDISATK; STURNRE

[EFF: Lightning Speed; GRANTDISATK; STURNRE (D:1) (T:SELF)]

This is ending at the beginning of my turn 1 round later not the end.
Am I missing something? Is this working? STURNRE
Or is there another way to accomplish this.

Thanks

[EFF: Lightning Speed; GRANTDISATK; TURNRE (D:2) (T:SELF)]

You'll need duration 2. The duration will decrement on init and then if the duration remaining is 1 at the end of your turn TURNRE will remove it.

Thanks!

Version update: 3.14
Feature - Added SDC (as a tag) SDC: (N). (N) will be added or subtracted from the Actors spell save DC
Added - SDC support for new NPC spellcasting DC (MotM)
Fixed - Duplicate effects added on expire
Fixed - Save mods not working for ongoing saves
Fixed - Rest tags not working for NPCs
Fixed - Ongoing Saves incorrectly built with Effects Builder
Documentation update

Would it be possible to add effects that do damage equal to a percentage of max hp and a percentage of current hp of the target (or (less important) the actor)? Something akin to "DMG n%MAX" AND "DMG n%CURRENT"? I have no idea if this is difficult or trivial, but it would add some possibilities to automate some interesting items/spells.

It is possible. Do you have an official item/spell in mind with these qualities?

Nothing official. The inspiration is taken from some League of Legends items.

The only one I'm currently using in my game is a custom made "Decimator" great axe that on crits (18,19, or 20 in this case) does an additional 10% of the target's max hp.

I currently have an effect: "DMG: n, critical" and just need to replace the n with the (simply) manually calculated number before rolling damage. Just looking to skip that step.

A new effect could potentially also enable different percentage damage based on what number was rolled for the critical (maybe in conjunction with Theogeek's Nat20 extension).

Displacement; GRANTDISATK; TURNAS; DMGDT is not being deactivated when taking damage.
