Pre-requisites and recommendations
There are no other requirements for using DDB Importer.
That said, I would recommend the following modules for the best support:
- Magic Items for attaching spells to magic items
- DAE for improving some bonus effect management
- DFreds Convenient Effects to help with effect management
- Vision/Detection Modes 5e adds those lovely missing vision modes for 5e.
- Arbron’s Summoning will allow the creation and use of summoned actors for spells and features in Tasha's
If you want to add spell effects, and high levels of automation you will need, (this is not recommended if you're using Foundry for the first time):
- DAE for skill bonuses and basic effects
- Midi-QOL
- About Time
- Times Up.
- DFreds Convenient Effects
Several macros that impact tokens rely on:
For super high automation (this is not recommended if you're using Foundry for the first time):
- Chris's Premades includes a lot of more advanced effects, but has a lot of module dependencies.
For prettiness add:
Documentation
Jack came to the rescue after the old importer stopped working. IMO, he provides a great value for the Patreon. Keep it up, Jack!
This module makes importing content from D&D Beyond painless and easy. The module creator is also very diligent about releasing updates to make it even better. It’s well worth the Patreon subscription.
Easily a must have module if you have any kind of content in D&D Beyond
MrPrimate turned what would have been a titanic endeavour into a couple clicks. I personally don’t use the character sync functionality, that just makes me even more astonished by the amazing work he has done. If this is a must-have for me and I use maybe half of it? Damn! That’s what I call value.
