Content

Now that all the System Reference Document (SRD) content from the 2024 Player's Handbook (PHB) is done, what do you think should get priority for the v24 sheet?

The sheets will stay in beta until all the SRD content is done, of which only the magic items remain. However, I expect that subclasses are more pressing than magic items, but I might be wrong. This is why I am coming to you to decide.⠀

Once all the magic items from the SRD are transcribed, the sheet will come out of beta.⠀

The only part that is still missing from the 2024 Player’s Handbook are the subclasses that are not part the System Reference Document.⠀

Another thing that I could focus on next, is getting all the legacy content working in the 2024 sheets. With “legacy content” I’m referring to material from 5e sourcebooks that has not been reprinted for the 2024 rules. For example, the School of Necromancy subclass for the wizard, which appears in the 5e PHB, but not in the 2024 PHB.

As all this content has already been transcribed for the 5e (2014) sheet, it is a matter of determining which should and which shouldn’t be made available for the 2024 sheet, as well as updating some old syntax and removing things that are no longer applicable in the 2024 rules (e.g. ability score increases from race).⠀

Content not mentioned in this poll will come later. Not necessarily after everything in this poll is done, but certainly after whatever wins this poll has been completed.

If you are looking for WotC publications that came out after the 2024 PHB, I can recommend checking out the fan-made add-on scripts. Those add-on scripts should work with the 2024 sheet without issue as it is fully backwards-compatible.

Please use the Community Add-On Script Index to look for fan-made add-on scripts.

My vote is subclasses then legacy content then magic items. This is because it's easy to type in what a magic item does. I don't know how to add subclasses or spells that aren't on the sheet.

Luka Boban

Completely agree, also magic items are quite often custom anyway

Psieye

Yep, subclasses are the correct choice. Examples like the Warrior of the Elements Monk are well out of my reach to custom create based on required time commitment. Having the class logic be validated to work by MPMB as the authoritative project operator is the ideal state.

Question for Joost: if you would have to make an estimate, how "done" is the 2024 sheet at this point? 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%...? And how is it progressing according to your plan/liking? Is there any way the community can help?

Javier Molina

Exactly my thought process as well

Tim Beese

Subclasses seems to make the most sense. I just started a level 1 rogue, so personally I'm hoping to see the Soulknife show up when I hit level 3.

This is a hard one to answer, because the time it costs to implement something (i.e. a class feature, magic item, feat, etc) is directly related to its complexity. Without charting everything first in minute detail, it is hard to estimate how complex the remainder is and how time-consuming. Verbose features that introduce new mechanics are a lot harder to implement than things that follow a similar template. Progress is definitely much slower than I'd hoped, but we are definitely nearing the finish line. All the built-in changes are done (assuming there are no more bugs), so it is "only" a matter of transcribing content.

Subclasses, then Artificer(?) if possible, then Magic Items - don't bother integrating 2014 material because a lot of it will be replaced this coming year with updated subclasses.

Rick Kughen

My vote is to do the subclasses first. I think that will be the most beneficial option for the most people.

Robert Plummer

agreed I don't think you need to do legacy content as with the upcoming content it will be outdated eventually. seems like a waste to include it at this point. they already have Artificer out as well as other options and feats from the forgotten realms publications. soon Ravenloft new book will be added. seems like alot to do just to keep up.

morepurplemorebetter

I'll see what I can do, but those first three levels always go so quick.... Hopefully you don't play multiple times per week ;)

morepurplemorebetter

Subclasses are clearly winning this poll, so that you don't have to worry about. I'll have to include the artificer in the next poll. I doubt that all legacy content will get a re-release anytime soon, if ever. I think it's especially unlikely for things like exotic races and campaign-specific magic items.

morepurplemorebetter

There is indeed plenty of material to catch up on, so more than enough still to do. That being said, sorting through the legacy stuff is much quicker than transcribing new content as it is mostly a copy-paste operation.

Tim Beese

We are still about 2 weeks out from even playing our first session, so I am cautiously optimistic.

morepurplemorebetter

Most people seem to agree with you, the subclasses are clearly going to win this poll.

morepurplemorebetter

Most people seem to agree with you on the subclasses, but reading the comments shows that doesn't apply to legacy content being the thing to do after that. I'm guessing a new pool will be needed by then.

Rick Kughen

Personally, I am dying for the subclasses to be added. I do a lot of multiclassing, which makes character sheet creation more challenging. Having the subclasses and spells filled out would make things easier, for sure. Thank you for all of the work you do!

Robert Plummer

Thank you for all that you do on these character sheets! I have been using them for some time now!

Eric Regaudie

Would those includes the Forgotten Realms Heroes of Faerun subclasses? They're some pretty interesting ones in there :)

morepurplemorebetter

The poll was just for the PHB subclasses. Those already take up plenty of time to transcribe. Once those are done, I'll put up another poll for the next thing to focus on and might well include subclasses from the newer 2024 source books.

Dan

The apocalyptic subclasses would be fun

LegendCat6

As someone who only uses original 5e content (I don’t own any 2024 content), will there be a toggle or an update to the sheets to let people pick which system they’re playing, or if they’re playing a mix?

morepurplemorebetter

No, there are two separate files, one for 5e and another for the 2024 rules. You can use add-on scripts to customize them to create a hybrid of the two editions.
