View Full Version : DM Help Anyone else use the Beyond20 add in - Just with Discord?

So I DM a game, strictly through Discord (I am in San Diego, the players are in Kansas).

I don't use Roll20 or Fantasy Grounds. Old school, imagination using the technology of Discord.

The player rolls all work - the dice rolls from D&D Beyond come into Discord. (And mind you, my own characters work as well, when I am a player).

However, as a DM - I can't get Monster rolls to work.

For example -

I am DMing, and I want to have a goblin attack...

So if I go to the goblin page on D&D Beyond...

https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/goblin

I see all the Beyond20 "icons" next to all the stats.

However, when I click it - it doesn't roll into Discord. It doesn't roll anywhere, except on D&D Beyond.

I get the option Select Type of Roll and I select Public (or any of the other two options) - And it gives me what it rolled in D&D Beyond - but not Discord.

- EDIT...
Actually, got this to work now by showing one of my other players how to configure it for their character - I discovered how to make it roll the monster stats/attacks/saves/etc., into Discord.

So yeah, it does work. :-)
