Sep 15, 2011 15:41:20 A very quick questions:

Does the character builder use every current players resource book to fill out its options?

meaning...does it have PH2, 3, psion powers, martial powers 2, adventurers vault 1 and 2, heroes of shadow, etc...

I tried finding it on my own, but couldnt find what it uses to "fuel" the builder.

Thanks!

If I'm understanding you correctly (and I think I am?) then answer is:

Yes, if you're using it right the builder will show you all legal options from all sources released so far.

When creating a new character, on the opening screen of the Character Builder you must select 'Custom' - not 'New' which is Essentials-only.

Then on the next page where you choose a campaign, you must select 'D&D Home Campaign'. I believe that every other option omits some content.

And there is no altering either of these choices once you've started building the character. If you've gone down the wrong path on them, you must start over.
