Hello guys.
I created a new spell for the bard using the duplicate of an exesting spell (rope trick), but it does not show in the spell bard list. I checked the “bard” tag on the spell class and inserted the sourcebook as Platers Handbook 2, which I have configured in my portfolio, but the spell does not show up...any ideas? Thank you so much for any help, Leo |

Are you sure the level is correct? That has tripped me up a few times. You think you're looking at the right spell level in the list and it's different in the editor.
Also, check that you have Player's Handbook 2 source material checked in your Hero Configuration, or it won't show up. Or you can just uncheck the sourcebook from the spell. |

Post a copy of your user file here and we can check the spell. Hopefully someone can see what has gone wrong.

You may have copied an obsolete spell. They only show in old characters who already had them selected. New versions of most spells were created so that a new copy doesn't have to be made for each class that uses it

So, how can I do to understand if a spell is obsolete or not? Is there any flag in the spell description or name or somewhere else? Thank you, Leo |

Obsolete spells have the Helper.Obsolete tag. The more current spells will have a thingid that starts with 'sp'.

The easiest way to tell.
1. All new spells start with sp instead of just s. 2. All new spells do not indicate class, only the spell name (or some amalgamation of such). 3. All new spells have their level appended to the end of the name, not some large numeric value. Example: This is NOT a new spell (obsolete): sWiz20000 This IS a new spell (not obsolete): spAcidArr2 Hope that helps a bit, without having to look at the tags. |
