1) Ability to edit Saving throw mods, resistances and conditions and effects to add temporary modifiers (like temp hit points).

2) Ability to edit item cards including their bonuses.  For example turn a +2 Magic armor into a +3 magic armor without removing the old and adding a new.

3) The ability to creat items including adding bonuses that affect the character sheet totals.

4) Power cards for feats

5) Make it easier to find the group sets in the shop tab.

Wulfie, there's an Item Sets section between Boons and Mounts in the Shop section.  They're all listed there.  Click one and you can see all the items in it.


1) Ability to customize whatever's not currently customizable.  Like resistances, save bonuses, skills that aren't Perception or Insight...

2) Summary view of powers that has each on it's own line, with name, type, hit, damage, effects...  pure text, no cards.  Summarize the effects so it'll fit.  (I currently do this manually in OpenOffice.)

3) Ability to search by item effect.  If I type, "Endurance", for example, I want anything that effects Endurance.  Not just things with Endurance in the name.

4) Fix the bug where, if you make a custom power, you can't edit it without editting it's name.

5) Psionic Power, Dark Sun and Essentials content.

1) Custom elements that are calculated in the CB, including feats that scale by tier.

2) editing, existing items' crunch/fluff

3) ARTIFACT CONCORDANCE

4) add bonuses/penalties to everything: NADS, AC, ATTACK, DAMAGE, INITIATIVE, SKILLS and so on.

5) UPDATE THE CB THE SAME DAY NEW BOOKS ARE RELEASED!!!!
(I won't even start on the current situation: >2 months without an update )

1. Export capability to a generic format that anyone can read without needing this program installed.  Perhaps excel or word?

2. Keep CB updated with new content.  It can't be that hard to coordinate the release of new content with the releast of a new update for CB.

3. Greater ability to homebrew stuff. 

4. Show all feats/PP/ED's, not just ones i qualify for.  Usually i have to go and set all atributes to 20 so i can see them all, then i can decide what values i need to set for each attribute.  That and not see'ing all of the PP/ED's because i don't have it set yet to worship the right diety.  Just show them to me, and if i assign it and i don't meet the prereq then tell me i'm homebrew then i can go see what i need to change to make it legal.

Or at the very least, have an option that will show all possible options regardless of if i meet the prereq or not.

5.  There are a lot of times things don't show up on power cards.  Like the frostcheese combo, or combat advantage is never listed.  It lists some things that are situational, but not all things situational.  Wish there was a way to add all possible bonus' to hit and damage based on my current build, not just the obvious ones.

Right now my only gripe is, the ritual cards print, and they tell you what the ritual does.
But they DONT tell the casting time, duration, materials etc. The whole point of having the card is so I dont have to search through all the books every time I use a ritual.

I would really, really like the power cards to print out with all the modifications from feats and such.

For example, my L1 Kalashtar Pacifist Cleric's Healing Word power currently reads:

The target spends a healing surge and regains 1D6 additional hit points.


Between Healer's Lore (Wisdom 20) and Pacifist Healer (Charisma 16), it should say

The target spends a healing surge and regains 2D6 + 8 additional hit points.

I want to be able to customize the layout of Power Cards. Not just the ability to move fields around, but to change the shape, size and position on the page of each card, so that they can more easily be printed on pre-cut card templates like these: www.plaincards.com/
Failing that, I want to export the text fields from each card as xml or csv so I can import them into a program that does allow me to fine-tune the layout for templated printing.

I want to be able to manually add misc bonuses that are always present. We have an elf in the party, so always have +1 Perception. I should be able to put a +1 in the misc modifier of the Perception skill and have it autocalculate. Similarly, I should be able to add the +2 initiative we get from our Warlord.

 I want to print full journals.

Custom Power Cards that you can modify and move around, since they are the essential feature IMO.

A page in the CB itself under manage where you could add custom bonuses that would propagate throughout the sheet.  Any changes made this way would display and print in RED on the sheet so you know that it is a custom change.

Also, for the relgions and domains, you should be able to customize to where you can just pick 2-3 domains for you character to have access too.

I just want the default save folder to persist after each update, instead of reverting to the default. User preferences should remain unchanged by data/functionality updates...

Anyway, that's nowhere near as important as getting DS/Essentials content and fixing bugs with complex combinations of feats/powers/etc limiting your weapon choices or showing incorrect modifiers.

Roll on, November!

I've got to say I am really disappointed that there are no more scheduled updates on the calendar.  Also the content coming out for the next month looks pretty weak.  I cancelled my subscription as did many of the guys in my gaming session.

D&D Insider needs to get its act together if they want to keep their subscriptions.  They are seriously underachieving.
