Frequently Asked Questions
The new 5E sheet and builder are fully compatible with the Discord Activity! To help make the transition to the new character sheet and builder experience as seamless as possible, we recently launched the ability for you to have both of the official 5E sheets within one campaign on the Roll20 Tabletop. Players can choose the sheet that works best for them without the whole table needing to switch at once. Choose your sheet in the Game Settings tab in the right-hand toolbar.
