How can I add the monsters form the guide? is there a way I can edit this to add unique monsters from campaigns such as ravenloft and so on?

Monsters from Volo's? They have not been added yet. You can make custom monsters using the Custom Monster Race.

Awesome update daplunk! Thanks for all the hard work you and others do :)

I had very little to do with this release a huge thanks goes out to:

TheEnthusiast, shadowchemosh, CptCOOTS, Sethvir, HippyCraig and xdy and of course everyone who submitted bug reports and new content :)

add monsters
 

Do you have a thread where i can see the tutorial on how to add a monster? I wish to add monsters from campaigns and also those

Add another round of thanks here as well!!

thanks
 

I tried, but it seems a bit complicaded, I got up to the point I created a Death Kiss, but i could not figure out how to integrate it to the Encounter Builder

I guess i will be patient for your team to put all new monsters from Volo and other campaigns, thank you anyways :)
