Classes, attacks and spells

Characters · guide 2 of 5

Classes, attacks and spells are where the rules pile up. Critsmith works out the numbers and keeps count for you, so nobody has to do sums in the middle of a fight.

On your campaign's Build page, open Players and Character Sheets, pick a character, and look under Build.

Classes

Progression holds the character's classes. The total level is the sum of every class, kept in step for you. Most characters only need one. For genuine multiclassing, open Add a class, choose the class, a subclass if it has one, and its level, and press Add class.

Level 6

milestone · you grant levels, players level up on their own sheet

Level up

You can grant the whole party a level at once from the Party screen.

Classes

Total level is the sum of every class below, kept in sync automatically. Most characters only need one row. Add more only for genuine multiclassing.

Progression, with the row to add a class

A character's subclass shows on its class. It's normally chosen in Level up, when the class reaches that level. Levelling up has its own guide: Inventory, XP and levelling up.

Attacks

Next, Attacks and spells. Critsmith works out Unarmed Strike, every weapon the character carries, and their attack cantrips, and keeps them up to date as their scores and gear change. Those are marked Worked out by the app.

Weapon Mastery

For a Barbarian, Fighter, Paladin, Ranger or Rogue, the Weapon Mastery box shows the weapons they've mastered, and what each mastery does. Change picks lets you choose differently, even beyond the class rules.

Weapon Mastery

Fighter 6: 4 of 4 picked

Handaxe (Vex) · Longsword (Sap) · Maul (Topple) · Spear (Sap) · Dagger (Nick)

Nick: When you make the extra attack of the Light property, you can make it as part of the Attack action instead of as a Bonus Action. You can make this extra attack only once per turn.

Sap: If you hit a creature with this weapon, that creature has Disadvantage on its next attack roll before the start of your next turn.

Topple: If you hit a creature with this weapon, you can force the creature to make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 plus the ability modifier used to make the attack roll and your Proficiency Bonus). On a failed save, the creature has the Prone condition. Maul: DC 15 (8 +4 Strength +3 proficiency).

Vex: If you hit a creature with this weapon and deal damage to the creature, you have Advantage on your next attack roll against that creature before the end of your next turn.

Dagger was added by the DM, beyond the class rules.

The rules let you change one pick after a Long Rest.

Slots and uses: spell slots, limited uses and hit dice

The short and long rests you call on the Run screen bring them all back, so there are no tally marks to keep.

That's classes, attacks and spells. The rules handled, so the table can get on with playing.
