5E Bug reports (2020)

If I did not have the book, I wouldn't have known that the trial tracker existed. I wouldn't have known how to track the trials correctly. Maybe adding the image to the DM side of RotF under References, that would help. If there was some way of adding it to the DM notes window, that would be great.

It's not missing, as the image wouldn't help. Without a way to edit the map with text, its not useful and is just a list to track the successes of the trials. A story record with a table would work much better in tracking the successes. As it's a GM tool, there are other ways to approach this that FG has to offer.

A GM could use the Drawing Tool to write things out. It's what I do when I write on maps.

astromath, thanks for the feedback. I have pushed changes to the module that will be available with the next update.

Sorry if this is not the right place to post these, but as a new user, I've been browsing the Player's Handbook and noticed a few typos / issues with regards to items.

The sling is listed with a weight of 0 lb. Most of the other items have been given a weight in FG (often a minimal value such as 0.01 or 0.02 lb), even when the original book lists them with a weight of 0 (presented as a - in the book), but it looks like the sling was not treated in the same way.

In the description of the 3 holy symbol items (Amulet, Emblem, Reliquary), there is a sentence that reads "A cleric or paladin can use a holy symbol as a spellcasting focus, as described in chapter To use the symbol...". It should read "A cleric or paladin can use a holy symbol as a spellcasting focus, as described in chapter 10. To use the symbol..." (missing the "10. " before the beginning of the next sentence).

Also, is there a reason why the items from the various packs that are not explicitly listed in the Adventuring Gear table in the book (ex: 10 feet of string) were added in the FG version of the PHB, but other items coming from backgrounds (ex: the rank insignia from the soldier background) were not?

Welcome to FG.

Thanks for the reports. I'm not entirely sure why some items were given a weight in the equipment list when the book shows no weight. I imagine the string was added so that the full list of equipment in the pack would be added to the player's inventory. Items that are specific to a particular background probably shouldn't be included in the general equipment list and are in any case just local colour rather than anything useful.

Record: Ranger class record

Description: The HD Per Level field is wrong. Likely a PDF conversion error. It is supposed to say "1d10 per ranger level", instead it says "1d1O per ranger level". Because it is the letter O instead of the number 0, any character gets only 1 HP and cannot use hit die properly.

Not sure if this has been reported, but in Rime of the Frostmaiden, in the "A Beautiful Mine" quest, there is a second paragraph that spoils a lot of the quest and makes it unsharable with players for that reason. Probably shouldn't include that paragraph.

I think I've already reported that. The 2nd paragraph isn't part of the boxed text in the book.

I've made the changes to the story and reference manual. I missed the quest entry. Thank you VeX for the report. Will be in next update.

Just noted that the Diplomat's Pack, when dragged onto a character's sheet, grants 1 Vial (1 gp, 0.01 lb) instead of granting the Perfume (vial) item (5 gp, 0.02 lb) as it should. Both items (vial and perfume vial) exist in the PBH; the pack should grant a vial of perfume rather than an empty vial.
