I use Dndbeyond to run one of my games since it is easier for players to learn and onboard into the game. However, I love creating my own homebrew and find it to be the fun part of the game for me as the DM. After creating 50+ items, 5+ feats, and 3 subclasses… I’m tired. The clunkiness is just overwhelming. It takes away the fun of the main part of the game I enjoy, creating new content. And I have to use their system for homebrew since my players all use it for their characters. I wish Wizards would put just a tiny bit of work into making it more user friendly.

Sorry for the vent.

    Yep. I loved creating homebrew items before we switched to using DND beyond. Now I don’t normally bother, half the stuff you want to do with it is broken, the other half doesn’t even exist.

    Personally I hate the whole dnd beyond experience. So many broken things that don’t work but you have no idea they aren’t working unless you know what to look for.

    Maybe it’s because I’m an old fart but I would much rather just do it on paper with an app just for using as a spell book if your a caster.
