Some of the Unearthed Arcana classes use non-traditional hit dice, such as the Spell-less Ranger using 2d6 rather than 1d10. Is there a way in the editor to set this up?

I don't believe there is, currently. Can you report this via the bug mechanism, and we'll add it to our to-do list.

Has this been fixed? I'm trying to make a custom monster based off of an EN World En5ider article, which has 4d8 hit dice, but Hero Lab is only shows d6. I feel like I'm missing something. How can I change the dice type for hit dice on a custom monster?

If you are looking for a class, the class offers the fields cHDCount and cHDSides. So, a ranger with 2d6 per level would have:
cHDCount = 2 cHDSides = 6 For races, you have only rHDSides to set the dices to d6/d8/d10/d12 (values 6, 8, 10, 12) and rHitDice to say how many hit dices the creature has. You can create a race with 4d8 hit dices, but not a 4d8 hit dice Hope that helps. |
