New (2024) Player's Handbook Bugs and New videos

[Zacchaeus]

Built a Barbarian with character builder. Rage is not completely correct; only 2024 PHB loaded. In short, in 2024 it should apply rage damage to any weapon attack done using strength. In 2014, you had to make a melee attack. However, the character builder is using the 2014 definition. I made a javelin attack and noticed it was wrong.

It's easy to fix, but currently seems hardcoded currently to the 2014 definition.

I'm not sure this is a bug but rather a feature request. The DMG effect can only currently handle melee, ranged, or opportunity. It would need thrown to be added as parameter in order to handle edge cases like a thrown Javelin, and that would be a ruleset change.

Isn't all you need to do is to remove the "melee" in the coding line? When I did that, it worked when I chucked a javelin.

Thanks for the report. I'll get that adjusted in the next update; but any existing Rage actions will need to be edited.
