Shielding Retaliation (lvl 3 warlord encounter power from Martial Power) is missing.

Also, when a power has an effect - for example, move an enemy 1 + Int squares, or do Cha + 3 damage - it'd be great to see this calculated as well on the power cards. I said this above for cleric heals that also do +Wis to healing, but it'd be nice for any class with a similar feature.

This is particularly tricky when powers are "do X, or if you have class feature A, do Y + mod" (for example, if you are a brutal rogue you add Str to damage, or if you're an infernal warlock you push 1 + Int instead of just 2) but it'd be great to have.


And thanks for letting us know that you read the thread!

Okay. Playing with a Minotaur Battlerager build I noticed something:

Charge feats/Charge mechanics are not being computed properly into the sheet (+1 to hit/+2 damage with powerful charge) for powers that require a charge.

Minotaur feats are still not usable from Dragon #369

Battlerager mechanics still not registering, and secondary damage effects not registering.

It would be nice to see special weapon mechanics have reminders on the power cards (brutal, high crit, etc)

As you know, feat organization is a mess - especially when it comes to those gladiator feats.

I'm not sure if this had been mentioned, but I'd love to see the ability to edit the text of various entries. For instance, I'm playing a monk using the conversion rules set out when 4E was announced. So, I'd love to be able to edit the text "ranger" on my sheet to read "monk". Likewise, one could edit the text "scale mail" to "Lamellar" without it affecting the mechanical expression of the scale mail on the sheet. The same could be done with the names of various powers.

How about the ability to save to folders other than the folders set up by CB? I am using multiple computers and I want to keep the folders in sync on the network and the best way to do that is to be able to alter the standard save locations? Any word on this?

Will there be a way to provide support for 3rd party campaign settings for 4E?
I'm looking to run a campaign in Blackmoor, the First Campaign down the road and there will be new races and classes to add.

Apologies if these have already been suggested above.

It would be great if there were a higher level of automation. For example, most situtational bonuses from feats, magic items, and class features do not get added to the situational modifiers areas. Some do, but most do not. There's also no way to edit those sections to manually add situational bonuses.

This also applies to the interplay between some class features and feats that improve them. As an example, the warlord presence features list out the formulas for determining what bonuses and how many temporary hp they provide. It would be nice if this were autocalculated, and it would be even nicer if when you took a feat that modified such a power (for example, Improved Resources) if the improvements from the feat were factored into that calculation.

Third, if there was more automation like this, it would be great to be able to hover your mouse over a calculated value and have a pop-up display that shows how the value was derived.

Thanks for listening!

I know I've posted this in a couple locations, but I really would like to see more functionality in creating Custom Items.  At the very least a simple drop down menu to identify which Item Slot a custom item should take (i.e. - feet slot, neck slot, etc.).

I wish to create item and save them in the right Section of SHOP of Character builder. If i Create a potion it goes to potions section of the programs.


 


Houserules section need to be more user friendly.


What ever items pre-made are in software execpt for "Magical Weapon and armor"


constumable items  like potions / wand / Scroll need to be more user friendly for costum.


If i want a magic potion than does a fire ball.... Errrrr....... Houserules doesnt allow me.

Allow us to enter our own text into the background section; I don't care about the text from the background I chose, I have my own story. I don't feel like putting it in Mannerisms or Personality traits, either. Just have something like:


CHARACTER BACKGROUND


Benefit: Born Among Another Race [Dragonborn, +2 Intimidate]


Kunajo the eladrin was born among the dragonborn of Tymanther... blah blah blah, you get the idea.

Birdies!
