There should be a level progression there for variable damage per level, instead of three hits.

I also noticed an unusual quirk when making a higher level character. If you are starting from scratch, you must choose your first level encounter power before the CB will display the option to choose the theme's third level power.

It will display the second level utility theme power, but will not let you see the option for the third level theme power, unless you choose that first class encounter power.

Also, I noticed that themes are not actually in the D&D Compendium, which make it hard to figure out what the power is supposed to be displaying as, without having the book right in front of you.

Has anyone else noticed any other errors for the themes in the Dark Sun portion of the character builder?

Yup. It appears across all of the themes.

Nov 16, 2010 17:34:22 The escaped slave theme is also supposed to give Bluff training. This appears to be an error migrated from the October version of the offline builder, which had the theme in the datafile with the same error but not selectable through the UI.

Supposed to look like this:
