#1 yehlankrosz Oct 04, 2010 15:35:18	This will just be a point by point post on issues i have with character builder and things id like to see changed, fixed or just things maybe i dont know how to do. So feel free to correct me on anything i have wrong or post your own issues. -Feats not added to powers as they should be. e.g. clerics pacifist healer feat not added to powers that use it, clerics healer's lore (I know not a feat) not added to powers that can use it, mark of hospitality same thing. Headman's chop being added twice to power cards for players using a khopesh or other weapon that is both an axe and heavy blade. -Being unable to edit power cards so you can add the adjustments D&DI are missing. As well not being able to create custom power cards. most of my issues with character builder its interaction with the printable character sheets. Alot of people say be thankful for what you get but the big features of character builder are 1st having regularly updated content (And we all know how well thats going) and 2nd a tool that saves time and creates ease for players to make and update characters which also doesnt always work properly. Everytime my players level there characters i have to go through each character sheet and power card with a fine tooth comb in order to make sure everything is as it should be so as much as it saves my players time in making there characters it creates more time i have to spend ensuring everything is status quo because nothing is worst than playing and having a player 3 rounds in realize his power card didnt add a feat or a class feature and having him grumble about the fact he wouldnt be bloodied right now or the monster would be dead by now because a bonus that should have been on the card wasnt. I do appreciate the character builder i wish there was a similar program for 3.5 edition as i still play that as well and id honestly pay more or even pay for a tool that covers everything but sadly one doesnt exist (most are missing gestalt, certain prestige classes, missing races or several other things you cant expert a free tool to contain since well its free and I didnt have to spend the time making it) In the end if anyone knows how to manualy change power cards on character sheets youd be my hero.
