EDIT: I solved it myself, should of held out for a few more minutes of troubleshooting. I replaced when I didn't need to, while I am replacing 3 layers, theres only 2 queries so no need to replace amps. I'm trying to make a complex query inside of a query drop down macro for actions for a specific heavy use npc and when I try to use the proper method for a spell's higher level damage equation it spits out a weird error I've never seen before in the query system: ?{What Ability?||Dagger, &{template:atkdmg&#125; {{mod=[[@{selected|dexterity_mod}+@{selected|pb}]]&#125;&#125; {{rname=Dagger&#125;&#125; {{r1=[[1d20cs>20+@{selected|dexterity_mod}+@{selected|pb}]]&#125;&#125; {{always=1&#125;&#125; {{r2=[[1d20cs>20+@{selected|dexterity_mod}+@{selected|pb}]]&#125;&#125; {{attack=1&#125;&#125; {{range=20/60ft&#125;&#125; {{damage=1&#125;&#125; {{dmg1flag=1&#125;&#125; {{dmg1=[[1d4+@{selected|dexterity_mod}]]&#125;&#125; {{dmg1type=Piercing&#125;&#125; {{dmg2flag=&#125;&#125; {{dmg2=&#125;&#125; {{dmg2type=&#125;&#125; {{crit1=[[1d4]]&#125;&#125; {{crit2=&#125;&#125; {{save=&#125;&#125; {{saveattr=&#125;&#125; {{savedesc=&#125;&#125; {{savedc=&#125;&#125; {{desc=[x](<a href="https://media.giphy.com/media/3o6YgazfB1a5zsE0Q8/giphy.gif)&#125;&#125" rel="nofollow">https://media.giphy.com/media/3o6YgazfB1a5zsE0Q8/giphy.gif)&#125;&#125</a>; {{hldmg=&#125;&#125; {{spelllevel=&#125;&#125; ammo= {{charname=&#125;&#125;|Sling, &{template:atkdmg&#125; {{mod=[[@{selected|dexterity_mod}+@{selected|pb}]]&#125;&#125; {{rname=Sling&#125;&#125; {{r1=[[1d20cs>20+@{selected|dexterity_mod}+@{selected|pb}]]&#125;&#125; {{always=1&#125;&#125; {{r2=[[1d20cs>20+@{selected|dexterity_mod}+@{selected|pb}]]&#125;&#125; {{attack=1&#125;&#125; {{range=30/120&#125;&#125; {{damage=1&#125;&#125; {{dmg1flag=1&#125;&#125; {{dmg1=[[1d4+@{selected|dexterity_mod}]]&#125;&#125; {{dmg1type=Bludgeoning&#125;&#125; {{dmg2flag=&#125;&#125; {{dmg2=&#125;&#125; {{dmg2type=&#125;&#125; {{crit1=[[1d4]]&#125;&#125; {{crit2=&#125;&#125; {{save=&#125;&#125; {{saveattr=&#125;&#125; {{savedesc=&#125;&#125; {{savedc=&#125;&#125; {{desc=[x](<a href="https://media.giphy.com/media/RkE49ci4yPGeNKtkmT/giphy.gif)&#125;&#125" rel="nofollow">https://media.giphy.com/media/RkE49ci4yPGeNKtkmT/giphy.gif)&#125;&#125</a>; {{hldmg=&#125;&#125; {{spelllevel=&#125;&#125; ammo= {{charname=&#125;&#125;|Dissonant Whispers, &{template:atkdmg&#125; {{mod=@{selected|spell_save_dc}&#125;&#125; {{rname=Dissonant Whispers&#125;&#125; {{r1=&#125;&#125; {{always=1&#125;&#125; {{r2=&#125;&#125; {{attack=&#125;&#125; {{range=60&#125;&#125; {{damage=1&#125;&#125; {{dmg1flag=1&#125;&#125; {{dmg1=[[3d6]]&#125;&#125; {{dmg1type=Psychic&#125;&#125; {{dmg2flag=&#125;&#125; {{dmg2=&#125;&#125; {{dmg2type=&#125;&#125; {{crit1=&#125;&#125; {{crit2=&#125;&#125; {{save=1&#125;&#125; {{saveattr=Wisdom&#125;&#125; {{savedesc=Half damage&#125;&#125; {{savedc=@{selected|spell_save_dc}&#125;&#125; {{desc=[x](<a href="https://media.giphy.com/media/RkE49ci4yPGeNKtkmT/giphy.gif)&#125;&#125" rel="nofollow">https://media.giphy.com/media/RkE49ci4yPGeNKtkmT/giphy.gif)&#125;&#125</a>; {{hldmg=[[(1*?{Cast at what level?&#38;#124;Level 1&#38;#44;0&#38;#124;Level 2&#38;#44;1&#38;#124;Level 3&#38;#44;2&#38;#124;Level 4&#38;#44;3&#38;#124;Level 5&#38;#44;4&#38;#124;Level 6&#38;#44;5&#38;#124;Level 7&#38;#44;6&#38;#124;Level 8&#38;#44;7&#38;#124;Level 9&#38;#44;8&#38;#125;)d6]]&#125;&#125; {{spelllevel=&#125;&#125; ammo= {{charname=&#125;&#125;}
