Hello DMs!

I'm excited to announce the release of the D&D Beyond StatBlock Importer. This browser extension for Chrome and Firefox allows you to import all sorts of stat blocks from D&D Beyond, including stat blocks from your paid content and homebrew sources.

The extension is available here for Epic tier patrons.

Happy DMing!

This looks amazing. But I'm going to be honest with you, I cannot justify $60/yr for that extension.

That's fair. Some patrons like to think of it in terms of cups of coffee per month, which can be a bit more palatable.

Yeah have to say the same 60 a year to steep Beyond will have this stuff incorported sometime in the future anyways. Good stuff thou.

I would like to thank you. I am running out of the Abyss as DM and was struggling with combats for so many players, NPC's and baddies. In a single afternoon, I was able to up-load all the combat encounters and organized by chapter. I can now focus on roleplaying and story. Thank you sir for your efforts.

Oh man, this is exactly what I need for my campaign. I have to agree that the 60 a year is a bit much though.

Can you use this to import characters?

Not asking _you_ to do it, just curious if you think it's possible given the framework of the current importer :)

Awesome feature. Although I have to agree the price is pretty steep.. Not sure if I can continue pledging at this level, but we'll see..

Just a heads up, running a build on a case sensitive filesystem currently requires either renaming src/scripts/statblock.ts to StatBlock.ts, or changing the import statements in extractstatblock.ts and popup.tsx to use "./statblock" instead of "./StatBlock"

Other than that, it built fine and seems to work nicely. Thanks again for for a great set of tools!

Would this feature, as is, be usable to some degree to port spells over? I know it's a feature you're looking to get created in the future and I'm sure there's the fact that whatever that extension is pulling is reading a creatures single paged statblock as opposed to a whole list of spells.. but would you be able to delete some lines from what the extensions pulls? Just curious. Also, my two cents? I've used this program for a short few months now, and finally getting to a place where I'm familiar with it and have things set up, and I bloody adore it. 5$ a month to support someone doing lovely work? I'll just skip out on a Monster and bag of snacks from time to time - no biggie!

I primarily run Improved Initiative on my iPad - does the statblock importer work with Safari or Chrome in iOS? Or is it limited to desktop browsers?

Evan Bailey

It isn't tested in those browsers, but if Chrome on iOS allows you to install extensions it's worth a shot.

I noticed this feature only after I manually added creatures for my Saltmarsh adventure. But I am gonna use it in the future for sure!

I have to say the alpha and beta versions on dnd beyond are really awful, If you try to look at the stats for a creature it wipes out the entire encounter, initiative and all, they need to hire Evan!
