+= [some formula] means to add [some formula] to what is already there. If you wanted to completely replace any existing value with the calculated value, just "=" instead of "+=" is what you wanted. Make sense? |

the normal DC base of anything in 5E is 8... not 10. so if its taking its normal DC and saying DC +prof +cha = ... wouldnt we end up back at square one? same as if i used the automatic and was 2 short? so, where did it get the 10 from? since 5E base is 8, not 10, i am in the 5E editor and editing a 5E portfolio, and testing in 5E... XD that's the bit i am confused at otherwise it works awesomely, tested it out and its adding up fine... never could accept "its working, don't ask why" as an answer XD always needed to know why something worked, or didn't work. |

.field[tProfBonus].value is a single field on the Proficiency Bonus Pick. More than you care about I am sure about the editor. Quote:
In the editor see if you press the blue button called "Fields" see if if "abDC" is listed with a value of 10?

This also appears to be a bug as the HL software is using 10 + Ability score instead of 5e's 8 + Ability Score.

Good Job! I reported it already. What it most likely means is no one is using the "StandardDC" logic or didn't know the value was 2 higher than it should be.

Saves in 5E are usually 8 + Proficiency bonus + the appropriate abilty score modifier (Charisma in the case).
Since you are setting the DC not modifying, ShadowChemosh's script should be: Quote:

Except he specifically asked for 10 plus not 8 plus. Which also added confusion when he was posting this in Pathfinder. As I didn't know he was talking 5e.
