5E Character Wizard Overview and bug reports

[tslewis123]

For some reason, proficiency with the tools marked with the kits/sets subtype granted by character backgrounds can't be replaced if you already get them from your class in the character wizard in D&D 5e. I originally thought it was just thieves' tools that had this problem, but it turns out herbalism kit has the same problem.

MOD: moved to 5E Character Wizard thread.

I'm currently working on another project and will need greater bandwidth to look this over. So it may be some time till I am able to look this over.

Cleric incorrect ability proficiency - Basic setup

I posted in the tavern but it was suggested that I should post this here.

I think the ability proficiency for saving throws is not working for clerics. The bonus is applied to Wisdom (as it should) and Intelligence (it should be applied to Charisma).

I am using the following modules:

- 5E SRD Data
- D&D Basic Rules – Player
- D&D Starter Set Rulebook (from Dragons of Stormwreck Isle).

as well as the following that I don't think are part of the issue:

- 5E SRD Bestiary
- 5E SRD Magic Items
- D&D Basic Rules - DM
- D&D Dragons of Stormwreck Isle (DoSI)

I have created clerics and imported the DoSI pre-generated cleric. If I look at the character sheet I can see stars to indicate the abilities that have proficiency bonus for saving throws and it shows start next to Intelligence and Wisdom.

I tried to hunt around the modules and rule-sets to see if I could find a table that was causing the issue but I completely failed.

If this is a bug is it likely to be cleared?

Thanks, sPK

I'll take a note to fix the Cleric in Dragons of Stormwreck Isle. That should be Wisdom and Charisma and not Intelligence and Charisma.

You must be in the know. It does indeed appear to be a Dragons of Stormwrech Isle issue. Just tested with just the SRC modules and that is fine. Looking forward to the update.

Just to be clear the Dragons of Stormwreck Isle characters will not work with the Character Wizard. You'll need to use drag and drop to level those up. (At least I'm pretty sure they won't work since they aren't like a standard character).
