5e Bug Reports (2021)

[Zacchaeus]

In the Lost Laboratory of Kwalish, there are many instances of unsupported characters (which show up as a ’).

I'll let the developer know; thanks for reporting and welcome to FG

Thanks, I've actually had and used the software for a few years (2016), just lurking around, though.

Thanks for reporting this issue. There are two ruleset versions of this product. Are you using the 5E version or the PFRPG version?

This is the 5E version.

Creating a character with -1 DEX modifier and choosing heavy armor, the DEX modifier is ignored. If I remove the armor, the -1 penalty is accounted for. The COMBAT CALC screen shows None for Dex modifier, and the only options are Full, Max 2, Max 3, and None. Seems like there should be a Max 0 option so heavy armor wearers still suffer applicable DEX penalties.

From the Player's Handbook:

"Heavy armor doesn't let you add your Dexterity modifier to your Armor Class, but it also doesn't penalize you if your Dexterity modifier is negative."

Dang! I looked all over for that before posting. Thanks for setting me straight. I now return you to your regularly scheduled forum.

In the Kobold Press adventure Empire of the Ghouls, the item "Black Shield of Grisal" is not created properly. it is labeled as type "Shield" with no subtype instead of type Armor with subtype shield. This means it does not apply the AC benefits when equipped. Both the item definition and the entries contained within any parcels will need to be fixed.

I'll pass that on to the developer.

Vitrolic Sphere
Spell dragged from spell list on to char.
Secondary effect (using button) on failed save incorrectly adds the damage at start of of target turn, should be at end of target turn.
Need help on how to correct.

Long rest.
Rounding error for recovery of HD that characters can spend on short rests.
Long rest returns half of your HD rounded down, the correct value should be rounded up.
This means it now (incorrectly) takes 3 long rests to be at full number of HD for characters with an uneven number of HD.
