5e Bug Reports (2021)

[Zacchaeus]

The description for the entry hall is correct (it's a two line description). I added the Sidebar there since it seemed logical to put it there. The description of the next three parts (of the entry hall) are in the next three story entries at 1a, 1b and 1c. All of those are pinned on the players map. The DM map only pins the main 'Room'. The whole of DotMM was littered with this kind of thing where set of 'rooms' would have an umbrella description marked as say 1 and then have sub rooms marked as 1a, 1b, 1c etc.

I'll get the missing occluders and the reference manual sorted; thanks for reporting those.

Arclight Phoenix from Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica - "Actions" is the last word in Crackling Death instead of a section heading, so Arclight Touch doesn't correctly show up under actions in the CT, but under Traits instead. Minor issue, I know.

Out of the Abyss 01.03.08 Stool

Subheading is "Stool - Portrait". Should be just "Stool".

Thank for the reports; added to my list

I pulled up the Tables dataset and then viewed the Beholder Eye table.
In my mind it doesn't make a lot of sense. (Perhaps a bit of formatting would help?)

Use the Story Template to generate the beholder description rather than rolling on the table. Not sure what your other image is about but I assume it should be attached to another post?

So then, as far as we're all concerned that table is okay?

Aargh! Stupid interface! Silly me.
I accidentally grabbed the wrong file to begin with. Recognized it and fixed it in the content of the post, but didn't realize the file manager wouldn't rectify it there too without extra work on my part. (I'm used to uploading using the menu buttons at the top of the posting editor. Not the file upload manager.)
[EDIT] Been fixed!

Well, there's not a huge amount I can do with it. Not sure what you are expecting. I could make a story template but since there's already one for the complete beholder I'm disinclined too add one for just the eyes.

I’m not trying to be argumentative. Nor I’m I trying to be obtuse. I guess I just am (obtuse).

I don’t understand what the function of the table is supposed be. I get to roll a 1d1. And so the result will be a....... 1. Okay.
Given the results of my roll, what am I supposed to do with the information in the column on the right? I assume, though it’s not specifically stated, that I am supposed to roll on each of the four sub-tables. I looked at the information above in the table description, on the screen shot, and the text there actually refutes my supposition. It reads that I am supposed to roll on this table.

So, in my mind the die roll is superfluous. And without that item to force the four sub tables into one entry, one can separate them into rows. Plus a minor correction of the table description and you have:

Now true, I admit, it is not a rollable table, but is this particular table really meant to be? Isn't is just a table "organizer"?

Zacchaeus, this is really just a suggestion, I guess. The way the table is now seems confusing to me. So confusing (to me) that I had to work through this, writing it down, just to understand what information was being imparted. Maybe what I've done doesn't make sense to you, and you want to leave it the way it is. In which case, I'll just shut up now. Thanks for listening.

IT seems to me the table is not intended to be used outside of the story template. Maybe updating the table descriptions with that info would solve any such confusion?
