Any automation to increase the counter when spells are used would require that you create or use an extension.
You can create a power already, and you can manually increment the number, but not sure the benefit. I think I would just start by having the power create a note effect on the PC, and then have the player manually adjust the number on the Combat Tracker each time. You will have to remember to write down the number if you remove the PC from the combat tracker though.

yes , its much more simple , add a feature call "defiler points" with just the description , and "sugest" manage with a counter put manually in the Notes of the data sheet , thanks

Hi, regarding Great Weapon Fighting, I've added reroll 2 to my weapon property and it seems to work fine on the regular weapon damage. However, when I add effects like smite, sneak attack, or other modifiers (DMG: 3d6, melee) to the weapon damage that should be rerolled, it does not seem to work with those extra dice.

Is there a fix for this?

[Griogre]

According to Sage Advice, Great Weapon Fighting is only suppose to apply to the roll of the weapon.

If you use Great Weapon Fighting with a feature like Divine Smite or a spell like hex, do you get to reroll any 1 or 2 you roll for the extra damage? The Great Weapon Fighting feature—which is shared by fighters and paladins—is meant to benefit only the damage roll of the weapon used with the feature. For example, if you use a greatsword with the feature, you can reroll any 1 or 2 you roll on the weapon’s 2d6. If you’re a paladin and use Divine Smite with the greatsword, Great Weapon Fighting doesn’t let you reroll a 1 or 2 that you roll for the damage of Divine Smite.

The main purpose of this limitation is to prevent the tedium of excessive rerolls. Many of the limits in the game are aimed at inhibiting slowdowns. Having no limit would also leave the door open for Great Weapon Fighting to grant more of a damage boost than we intended, although the potential for that is minimal compared to the likelihood that numerous rerolls would bog the game down.

Obviously your DM may house rule something different, but the base ruleset follows rules as written.

I have a character in the party whose token always becomes tiny when dropped onto the map from the combat tracker. All the others drop onto the map as medium sized tokens. How do I change the default size of the token when it is dropped?

Do you have the campaign option for Auto-Size Tokens turned on? If not, size will depend upon the image size in pixels.

[Zacchaeus]

Make sure that the character has a size noted in the Notes section of the character sheet. Any character with a size of Medium, Small or Tiny will automatically take up a full grid square when added to a map.

Where are the options settings stored? I am trying to help a new GM debug some problems like damage not appearing to clients and I want to make sure when he sends me his data configuration that it includes all the option settings he was using.
